Graph of all hands at Pokerstars (nl25 30%, nl50 65%, nl100 5%)




I don't have hands before that because I played on every network and a lot of different sites. So I lost track of some screen names and also had some problems with HM database so I lost almost all of it. But the graph would look very similar to this one if you include RB.

I hope we will have some good strategy discussion.
Plan for Supernova is to play ever day possible for min of 650 VPPs/day and that leaves me with ~30 days off excluding the days when I will study poker. Also hoping to be nl200 reg by the end of this year.
Although it doesn't look much it wont be that easy because my schedule is really full. And I am already sleeping 6h 20min per day. That's polyphasic sleep called "The Siesta". It's sleeping 6 hours during the night and a short nap in the middle of a day for 20min.
Btw I would really like to know if someone tried "The uberman" sleeping schedule.

I will also try to think and create some other sources of income and write about that as much as I can.

I want to keep this short that's why I didn't write to much info.
Also as you can see english isn't my native language

nice graph

I've tried the uberman and it works, but it's hard to make it work in regards to social activities and studying / having a job in general, but it was amazing the amount of time I had on hands

good luck !

Ty.
I understand it's very hard keeping that schedule with any kind of life activity that's why I don't think I will ever sleep like that, but definitely would try to see how it is.
Can you write some details about how you felt how your body reacts etc etc..

There is a lot of info about sleeping and what amount does human body needs. Basically studies shows that 6.5 to 7.5 hours is the best about for sleeping. If you want to talk about some more details shot me a PM.

The main thing why I don't sleep 12h/day is because there is so much awesome things in life to do that is to bad to not take a full advantage of it.

I am not a 100% sure what will be my main direction but I will try to take every opportunity that I see and experimenting with new things.
Definitely something like: internet marketing, e-commerce, small investings, opening some small business which isn't hard to outsource or something in that area, affiliate marketing, creating websites, offering all kinds of services etc etc.

It's 6may only.

Definitely it's not hard if you can put in the massive volume. But I already said what will be the biggest problem.

i did try the uberman but couldnt get through the trial phase because it was eating me up too much. been doing the Everyman (you call it siesta^^) now and then which feels great. Another thing that refreshes your mind is sitting down on the ground and try to concentrate on one single thing and try to keep your concentration up for as long as you can (part of meditating :P ) if you are interested in such things

gl with your challenge.

I never tried stuff like that but I notice that I can't stay focused for a longer periods of time. So I will give it a shot.

Try to focus on one thing and keep with it. dont switch between the things when u do it the next day. Most common object is your own breath that you should be focussing on. At first your thoughts interupt you after your first 3-4 breaths mainly^^ but later on, u can hold it for a longer period and then feel very focussed and can concentrate a lot more.

    Hey, nice thread!

    Could you give more detailed information about the two sleeping schedules that were mentioned above? I think it would be interesting to know the benefits and your opinion on this. Btw for how long have you been doing the siesta?

    Tyty will be following, gl

    I like to call, he's given you a good price to draw + implied odds, on another note your line looks super like a float.

    Have you been floating too much or have that image? I don't think that board hits your cold calling range too often. Have you seen him x/r the turn before? Looks like he has a set or nothing.

    Disclaimer: I play NL5

    Nice thread.

    They are both polyphasic sleep schedules. The "uberman" contains of six 30 min naps every 4 hours, that's total of 2 hours. I talked to a lot of people that tried it and all said it's possible without any side effects but only if your lifestyle can handle naps every 4 hours.
    "siesta" is more acceptable by people because it's 6 hours of night sleep and 1 20min nap. I tried it over 30 days and I can say it's ok. I also think that the only problem why it wasn't great for me are hard gym workouts. Due to that I have to rest/sleep more.

    I don't want to go in to much details because this isn't the place to have big discussions about that. But I will write a much longer post about my experience with "siesta" on my blog and I will let you know when it will be online so we can go in more details if you are interested. Thanks!

    Nice thread.
    I think I should float this kind of flop because it's not hitting his range + I have overs and backdoor FD. This is the first time I saw him x/r.
