not to sound negative but isn't 10 days overkill for someone in your position? it makes me think that you don't really want this enough, or are you ill or something?
Travelling with family, they were planning for a long time, I definitely would prefer to just grind a lot, really want to put volume as fast as I can, but this trip was planned way before. It will be good, relax a bit and break bad habits.
No, but I'm very likely just lazy, always studied the minimum in school/uni, but was able to focus very hard in some periods of my life, so I don't think I might have that, my shrink said I might have it though

Finland assaulted an old lady? I imagine that must've coincided with one of his speed/meth binges. Last I had seen he was getting the cops called on him for doing "death metal screaming" because his neighbor left their cat outside or something

Without having admins check it out, a couple of plain ol' searches makes me believe it is that FazendawhateverBH guy. Not sure why he wants to come here and talk ****. Probably should just stick to his own thread with his new fake persona.

Really? He seems to be a respectful, nice person from what I can tell.

I guess he got tired of being nice and respectful. I feel him. I'm getting tired of it too, lol. I did not do any kind of ip check or anything. I was reading the new thread and he used the spelling 1d1ot, so I searched that and sure enough Fazzy the only other person to ever use it. They also both do something weird with their apostrophes.
I don't know anything about his IP address. That's not available to all mods, we have to request someone higher up check that. I wouldn't be sharing who it was if I'd gone the "official" route. Just a guess on my part.

I was pointed to Rapi's thread by a very nice fellow on discord, and want to give my 2 cents. Just to make things very clear from the start, I´m not the troll. I shared my opinion on Rapi and disagreed with him on how he approaches poker in this thread, but I actually like him and want him to reach all of his goals. He posted on my old threads and gave me well meant advices. I had my own problems with someone on this forum who thought it was nice to just bash all microstakes players, which triggered me. I won´t do it to others, it´s just a matter of principles.
is it an IP thing? it really feels like it's finland
Yeah, it feels like finland when he isn't into his psycho phase, if he were we would identify him very fast lol.

Not sure if fazendeirobh turned out to be a troll, he seemed like a nice guy, but who knows

Whats the profit for 2023?
So what do you do with your poker profit? do you pay taxes?
I think you need to find some motivation to make more money from poker... example: wife, kids, degenerate trading( I mean investing crypto...)

honestly rapidesh, the troll guy is 100% right with you.
The only way you're gonna prove him wrong is getting a few roomates that grind, then you'll actually play and probably improve.
People that have the lazy genes like you absolutely need to have a bunch of people around to keep them from reverting back to lazyness.
Im a bit similar to you when it comes to poker and what helped me when i went pro meeting up with 2 guys to grind all night for a few months. That was pretty much the only year that i played great and a lot.

having adhd doesn't mean that you can't focus at all, and sometimes tend to focus even more for 'some periods in your life'
as someone who got diagnosed with it at 28, i can say that i played more hands since then in a couple of years comparing to when i was 23-28
laziness is one thing , getting extreme fatigue and demotivation after playing for 30m , which leads to not be able to focus on what you're doing , forcing you to end the session , are two very different things
Month was fine, couldn't play more because I've travelled for half of the month, it was really good, very beautiful beaches. I've done a lot of hiking and one in special was insane: I've walked 20 km in one day, those of which were 8 km uphill, around 30-45 degrees of inclination, after that I was the most tired I've been in my life, really good. I've changed some habits since then, no beer, eating better, doing more exercise, playing better overall too.
My second nl50 shot is going well, I will very likely play mostly nl50 reg tables from now on, will still play the best nl25 tables because they're good EV, will probably mix those even at NL100 fwiw.
Monthly graph (80% reg tables)
Some hands
H1:- So you're telling me that when I'm ready I will dodge bullets?
- No, Neo, what I'm telling you is that when you're ready, you won't have to.
Month was bad, ran bad, volume was low, only 36k reg tables, got into a downswing and it affected me quite a bit. Even though downswings make me play worse, at least they make me play more and study more. I'm really more motivated to play, will just take days off when I'm obviously playing poorly.
Back to nl25, but I believe it won't take long until I'm back at nl50. Level of play in there is weak, people obv play decent in the easiest spots, but I see big EV punts in a lot of spots, not sure if population punishes them properly though.
Learned a lot this month, coach is insanely good, I'm also studying with a group of friends from metagame and I'm learning a lot, specially theory.
this is the ultimate proof that in poker you either have it or you dont
Most of us that were pros with 0 studying 6-10 years ago can easily come back and do good at 50nl-100nl if not 200nl with 0 effort while people spending 2-6hrs per day studying can barely surive at 25nl after over a decade of effort.

Micros are a huge rake trap, and the average player, including fish, are much better than they were 10 years ago.

I don't think so, the average player before solvers were created was pretty weak, people got better.
Talent is overrated, hard work is more important
I'm killing the games with a sick winrate, just need to put more volume with good quality of play.

i was a pretty average mostly rakeback grinder for years. i came back last year for a few months and easily won at 12bb at 25nl, 9bb at 50nl and did 4bb at 100nl over a large sample. I only quit because i hated it and my job/crypto pays way more.
I never studied a day in my life. Everyone that i know that came back had the same ease. Micros are still SUPER soft.
Rapidesh barely winning on bodog, the softest site around, is really the epitome of the micro forum. He'll never succeed even if a top pro coaches him fulltime 8hrs per day. Its like a big dong, you either have it or you dont.

'over large sample' + 'came back for three month's' = something not adding up
