Honestly I never really know how the games are unless they’re really bad haha. Although at my table yesterday a few regs at my table were saying our table was really good. Keep in mind that was 2/5 though. I’m sure there’s some good action to be found still though!

Nice updates ! GL with your new live journey

Have not updated in a while so figured I would give it a go.

School
Essentially received all of my grades back and am very happy with 3/5 and the other two are basically borderline. However, if this is how it ends up, I'll still take it. Will not be attending my convocation because I'll be out of town and also do not really feel like it. Instead, I will just receive/pick up my diploma and move on. Feels bittersweet to end this chapter of my life (at least for now).

Health
After my crazy school grind, things had gotten pretty dire so had to make adjustments. Essentially, this entire month I have been on a pretty serious cut and added a lot of physical activity even if it's not as intense as I'd like for now. Definitely feel better and lighter and look forward to continuing. I do not necessarily do intermittent fasting, but just based on my schedule/routine I normally do not eat for at least probably 5-6 hours after I wake up. Naturally I'm just not hungry but I do drink good amount of water. Also had some weekends/nights of drinking hard, which of course does not help but it's good to unwind here and there.

Poker
Originally, the plan was to grind super hard this month before I go to Vegas for June (first time). I played a bit online early in the month before the games/action ran into some issues and I just decided to ease off for a while. Also did not help we are having some really nice weather so do not feel like playing online. I thought I was going to start tracking my live results properly, but for some reason did not and decided I would start officially in Vegas. Ironically, the few seshs I have played (5-7), I have won a nice little chunk that will help me fund my Vegas roll. I'll play some more live this month but probably not online. I'll definitely update like usual near the end of the month though.

Moving Forward
So now I am going to be graduated and plan on taking a year off to travel, experience and unwind. Will I play a lot of poker? Probably. Do I consider myself a professional? No. Do I think I could be a professional poker player? Yes. Do I want to be? Not really. So really the question is how will I manage this thread going forward or will I start a new one. Have not figured it out or thought about it much yet. Also not sure how/if I will do updates about my Vegas trip haha. I guess I'll just roll with the punches and see how things go!

GL with your (many) goals an congrats for being graduated !
Hope you will continue to update your poker journey. I’m really impressed about your sng consistance

Now this week I have to finalize my trip and get things in order as I am flying out to Vegas for a month June 1st-July 1st. Even though I booked a return trip, my plans afterwards are up in the air and I plan to go with the flow. I am undecided on how I am going to proceed with updates but I guess I'll think about it and figure it out. I will definitely be tracking my live results that's for sure. When I figure it out I'll write another post, but until then, thanks for reading!


Best,

Elliott

What do you plan on playing in Vegas? Cash, sattys or MTTs? Or a mix of the latter? GL

gl in Vegas!

Thanks guys!

100% playing a lot of cash and will flick in some MTTs and potentially try and satty into a big MTT that's the plan for now

I don’t even know where to begin - June was an absolute blur. Not quite sure how to approach an update either. I think I will hold off for now because I’m literally grinding 2/5 at the rio right now. Lived in a house with a good bunch of poker players and met a lot of nice 2+2 users as well. I’m staying here until the 10th for now and then my plans afterwards are undecided. I’m not sure if I’ll be returning back to Montreal or going elsewhere on the West Coast. Anyways, I felt the need to post something and I guess I will do a much more thorough update another time. Honestly I feel like finding another medium to update from now on but have not figured one out.

Gl in the final week in Vegas!

GL TS. Pleasure meeting and staying with you over the summer. See you next year bud.

How july was going ?

Not sure what to say really, I did not intend to abandon this thread but life has been moving at a rapid pace. Have still been playing poker and doing well. Anyways, I posted here to let everyone know that I will be continuing my journey on instagram:

@beyondtilt

give it a peak!

Always enjoyed popping in on this thread, shame it has to go. Good luck in future though, Elliot, in poker and in whatever else.

thanks man, appreciate it, keep grinding!

updated with a HH from other night sesh
@beyondtilt

Been playing a lot of live since WPT Montreal is happening. Follow along on insta @beyondtilt

still debating what to do with this thread because I hate not completing things - aka 100k challenge

I still play online just much less frequently and actually put in okayish volume this month all things considered. I took an absolute beating playing live recently - effectively -6.5k in 24 hours :/ but that's the way she goes.

Desperately need a new computer setup but given that I am playing less online it's tougher to justify. My PT4 takes ages to load up any long term results but maybe I will try to so I can show how things have gone since my last update.

Haven't really grinded that hard online since I returned from Vegas. Mainly caught the live bug and been playing that mainly. Anyways, this month not going well online but that's cause EV is evening out. Here's my graph since coming back July 10th, realistically not the best volume, but the results are good.




Also, follow my live journey on instagram @beyondtilt

Nice to see an update about online poker GG !
Since you are playing more live, si obviously ring gales, do you consider to switch online too ? Leaving husng to zoom or regular cash game ?


Envoyé de mon iPhone en utilisant Tapatalk

no plans of leaving husngs, but maybe will add online cash games into the grind as well

Currently been on the worst run in actual real $ I've ever had. In terms of a downswing, it's real, but I been grinding through my best and I know that it will eventually turn around. I'm sure online I have endured longer downswings, but for less money - live is a different animal.

Stay strong OP!

Cheers mate. Been even tougher lately but I’ll be alright!

Im late to this thread, looks like you grind all games.

Are the hypers I read about on the last page HU or 6max?
