This is one of my friend in study group's agent.

Not sure re bots higher up, I think In HU games but not FR. I know 102040 games still good quality.

2m rmb profit jeez...
btw do you need to boost your stat (>30 vpip)? if so how you get someone to do that for you

Some clubs/tables require it, you can use Poker minion or an autoclicker to boost

Latest hand review!

Don't tease us like this Meale.

i kinda dont think its a good idea to post HH reviews of PM publicly on youtube... at least un-list it or something

Why not?

I'm trying to draw attention to PM though to promote my affiliation so it makes sense.

Hah, should be good now m8 =-]

=================================================

Big night last night, three of us went all over the shop, soi 6, soi bukhao, walking st, the lads had a good night. ALmost got raped by a milf but was v qual overall.

Also went to Terminal 21 yesterday and today, biggest mall in Thailand. Place is absolute madness. So ****ing stoked to have a Coffee Club so close to me, I miss western breakfasts like crazy. Had breakfast at 10pm tonight :')








It's now 11pm and sleep schedule is all ****ed, going to grind now though and go gym tomorrow arvo.

Australian breakfast <3 but goddamn that hollandaise looks a mess.

Enjoy your PGC a lot Meale, keep it up!

Thanks bud, appreciate it.

Not much to report in terms of updates - not on my PC right now so can't post graphs but I think I'm down about 6 buyins or so since last update. Still getting coolered a bunch and getting hero called when I have bluffs etc. Sleep schedule is currently a mess as my mate's here and he's up all night playing MTT schedule and light is on etc.

I've been starting sessions at around 11pm at night which is really bad because come 3am the games are pretty much non-existent so I really need to bring the schedule back a bit. I imagine volume will be pretty average while my friend is here because my day involves more fluffing around, going out to get food with him, waiting etc but definitely making the most of having someone who can speak English around!

Gameplan now is to really just play every day through til probably Monday and have that day off. Getting really bored of breaking even results wise so hoping something changes on that front soon.

Your supposed to be a professional yet it sounds more like your on a holiday. Fix up your sleep pattern just go to bed at x and set alarm for x and you won't need silly drugs to falls asleep its not fkn rocket science. Get your act together.

Read the whole thread, he's worked ridic hard for someone in one of the most degen capitals of the world on whats his first time in Thailand. Very few would have had his work ethic. He's entitled to have nights off, and also his friend is there - I wouldn't be grinding at all if one of my close mates from home was out here with me, we would be out every night.

Hundreds of expats out here having sleeping problems out here in SE Asia despite little to no history of it back home, Little did they know that Dr Mirage has the miracle cure - they just had to lie in bed to fall asleep, that was the solution the whole time!

The guy who said all Aussie poker players are salty and especially to Europeans seemed to have a point at the time but Harvey is a sound guy and you are taking shots at him, a fellow Aussie so that theory is debunked.

PS: You're supposed to a native English speaker yet still can't get your head around fifth/six grade grammar, must be rocket science.

Reading book before going to sleep is the most gto thing to fix sleeping problems.

Working hard or not working hard is always a personal choice or preference as well as going to Pattaya or wherever one decides to go. The Mirage is obviously trolling and you may have got triggered but in my opinion the point of writing here is to get some advice and to get more objective of what your doing.

If you want very good results you need to fix sleeping problems and commit to poker. Alcohol is very bad for sleep even in smaller amounts. I have experience of staying in Asia and having sleep problems and you can find reasons to have them all the way from noisy ACs, or being in big cities or needing to go out with friends or being on phone late or whatever and before you decide to fix them you will always find reasons from somewhere else than from yourself. I get up at 5am go to bed 9:30pm fall asleep 10pm get around 3hours of deep sleep every night and its the best thing I ever did to myself. Being active during the day and getting up at the same time every day and not eating white rice and noodles many times a day and cutting the booze are things that would very likely fix the problem. Reading a book late is bad for me it makes my brain very active I can't do that but some benefit from that too.

Being mindfull in other words paying attention leads to many great things in life including taking responsibility and after that its very easy to do good things for yourself. Mostly poker players who go with the approach of looking to focus in poker and health while in Asia or wherever do much better than the ones who look to become sexual supernovas. People want different things and nothing wrong with anything but the poker and hc party lifestyle probably will cost you alot of EV in both life and in money if you continue long term.

Only found this now and enjoyed the read so far. Subbed obv glgl

Sleep schedule is a never ending problem. Fixing it is easy, maintaining it is hard. It takes very good discipline and self control.

fixing it is also hard... apparently your body clock fixes itself at a rate of 1hr/day so depending on how ****ed ur schedule is to ideal it may take a while

but yeah agree maintaining it is very difficult... especially as people who can work from home at any time they want

You clearly don't know much about insomnia!

This. <3

Yeah, definitely want it to be part of my routine for sure - that or going for a walk somewhere.

Yeah I agree with this 1000%. TBH I thought it wouldn't be too difficult to just focus on poker here but holy **** this place is like the nut low if you're trying to focus on cards. :') See more below.

<3

Sorry m8, update below~!

Yeeeep, I have some more things to try out, making progress in this area is going to be pretty crucial over next few weeks imo.

Yeah, also the 1x degen session per week I find reaaally throws my schedule out, I struggle to pull it back and find myself playing catch up from the get go.

Two Months in Thailand - A Belated Update & Some Thoughts...

First, my apologies for neglecting this thread for the past week or so. Basically, my buddy from AUS flew in from Vietnam and he was staying with me for the past week. Him being an MTT player meant he'd play from like 1am til 1pm - and unfortunately this generated a lot of light in my condo meaning sleep for me was absolutely gg. Once the sleep was gg, shortly after followed the diet, gym discipline, and volume. GG everything. It wasn't a complete write off, I still managed to play some half-volume days, but the issue was we'd quite often way up at like 6pm, gym/food, and I'd probably only start playing at around midnight - my games break at 3am so I could only get 3 hours in max. Wasn't ideal at all.

Annnnnnnnyhow, I've been in Thailand for alllllllmost 2 months now and below is basically what I've learnt living and grinding in Pattaya!

Girls, degenning, and partying

I've made an absolute mess of things on this front the past week... I think the issues stem from putting in high volume on the Tinder grind. A bit over 400 matches in just under 2 months and I think I messaged a good couple hundred of them! I feel like 99% of girls in Pattaya just want to go out and drink/party every night. Which makes sense since most girls are freelancers but like my issue has been that I just don't know when to stop... Like I think I had organised to see three separate girls on Monday... Which is obviously ***** ******ed. Told this 11/10 girl a week ago we were definitely hanging out on Monday, go out Saturday night and meet another 11/10 who then tells me to pick her up after work on Monday night so we can hang out. Obviously snap called because A) she was the hottest girl at iBar by chunks and B) because I was really drunk. So now I've double booked Monday night...

Sunday night I woke up at like 7pm, finished playing at like 3am, then get a message from some birdy saying to come see her at Insomnia and that she wants to hook up. Not doing anything and sleep is out of the question so say why not, drive to Walking St and go meet this chick at about 5am.

Get to iBar and it's closed so I have to go upstairs to Insomnia. While I'm waiting for this girl to show up, I get a drink and am just sitting at a table when 3 random girlies rock up and sit at the table with me. This 19 year old girl who was the cutest ***** thing of my life and seemed cooked as **** starts grinding on me... Then the girl I had intended to see texts me and says shes at Insomnia, while this new girl is all up on me. Anyway, manage to somehow avoid catastrophe there, go and find the bootycall girl, we hang out at Insomnia for a bit - she is there with 2 of her friends who are also 10/10s, it's actually ridiculous. This 50 year old Indian bloke tries to get the girl I'm with to go home with him, she tells him she has a boyfriend (me) and shortly after Insomnia closes. Now I had not intended on having a big night or drinking much - I thought this was just a random booty call thing and that all the clubs would close within an hour or so. Wrong. We end up at Flexx club til that closes at I think 8am... Dusted off 1.5k there on drinks, then we go to some random pool hall thing and play pool til about 10:30am. Actually saw some Chinese guy beat the fckkk out of his wife at Flex, security in Thailand absolutely useless passive cunce that really didn't do anything to stop this guy from open palming this girl in front of everyone. If you did that in a club in Aus you'd have about 11 maori guys on top of you within seconds and probably a bottle of the head as well...

We end up leaving and I told this girl probably not best idea to go back to my 1 bedroom condo since my mate is grinding Sunday schedule and there's not a lot in terms of privacy. I thought about grabbing a hotel for the night, cheap as chips and would have been fine, but was just tired as **** and wanted to go home mostly, so we head back to my condo. Before we left the girl was like "I go with you, you give me 2000, I never go for free" I was like you're absolutely having a giggle love if you think I'm giving you a cent. She says "**** you" and agrees to come home with me anyway.

I didn't even think this was a freelancer? And tbh I still don't think she is - but it's sort of just a given that if you go home with a girl that you pay them? IDK, this culture is not something I'm used to. And I have no intentions on paying these girls for sex, especially when they hit ME up at 3am lmao gtfo here.

So anyway I was expecting to just go back to my condo and basically sleep, while my mate finishes his session for another 3-4 hours or so... I explicitly told my mate before I left, "don't worry, there's no chance I come back here and bang some girl in the other room"... Before you know it this chick is all over me and despite my protests, she thinks it's absolutely hilarious bants to **** me in my room which is probably 5 or 6 feet from my buddy in the next room grinding the Sunday schedule. And she was almost needling me by being really loud too. Was like some funky exhibitionist fetish... Anyway, I tell her we need to use a condom but as I'm explaining this to her she's already forced herself on top of me and is going at it. This exact scenario has happened a few times now in the past 2 months and I'm half expecting my dick to fall off at any minute. It is remarkable though how in the heat of the moment you can become all too acquiescent about not barebacking random girls in foreign countries...

Anyhow, the next day rolls around, it's Monday. The day I'd planned on meeting two separate girls in the evening (not yet knowing how I was going to diffuse that situation) and I manage find myself with a third girl now in the picture. Basically ended up chilling with the girl who stayed the night, we go play some pool, get some food, and watch netflix, while I'm ignoring the two other girls I'd arranged to meet... Feel absolutely terrrible about this btw...

So the 10 I met at iBar who I told I'd pick up from work at 11pm, i.e.



Sends me this message...



Lol absolutely showers form there. Meanwhile I haven't even heard from the other girl I was supposed to meet... and the girl who stayed the night (yes the same girl who asked for 2000 to go home with me) has only just left... basically been with her for the last two days. And she's somehow convinced herself that she's my girlfriend now? She lives in Chiang Rai though so should be safe from that one.

But I've been trying to figure out how to be less of a spazz with the girlies here... The advice I've received is basically to get a girlfriend because A) you save money not having to go out and party with randos/buy their friends shots etc, and B) it's like consistent low stdev winnings to have a cutie on the roster. But I don't know man, a lot of the Thai girls I've met have the IQ of an 8 year old and probably speak about as good english as a 6 year old. I don't reeeeally think it would be right to wife one of these girls just for cheap mut lol...

Leave your thoughts in the comments section below!? Do I try find a gf or continue degenning with randoms til I get HIV?

Cops

I've been to the Police Station 3 times now to pay for tickets, once for not wearing a helmet, once for not having a green book with me on motorbike, and once for driving down a one way road (who would have thought you couldn't drive 20m down Walking St at 10am to pick up a slapper...)

I've also been briefed that I'm an idiot for not just offering the cop writing me the ticket cash as a bribe. The girl I've spent last two days with, her father is like some top dog Police chief in Pattaya and Chiang Mai, and she says whenever she gets pulled over she just tells them her dad's name and they let her go lol? must be nice...

Poker

I actually managed to cash out some profit this past week for the first time in months. Not much, only like $600 or so but it feels good to get paid once again. I have a new club I'm playing in now for 2/4/8, some 9max games and they seem fairly good overall. Also one of my players did particularly well at 800NL last month and made me a good chunk of rakeback there too - so i'm slowly starting to see some dividends from referring people to these Chinese games and diluting the player pool.

I realise I'm no where neeeear where I wanted to be profit-wise at this stage. This thread may as well be renamed to "trying not to go busto while balls deep in Asia" as that'd be a more fitting reflection of my financial situation rn. This graph is pretty innaccurate but gives you a reeeasonable idea of how the past 50k hands have gone...



TBH I think I may have seriously underestimated how difficult it would be to come out here and NOT degen but man it certainly is a ***** amazing place to party and I'm not going to be too hard on myself if in a years time I've not made much progress $$$ wise - if I can look back in a year from now and say that I've had a blast, then that's got to be +EV.

That said, it is now certainly time to knuckle down and get tf back to work. My mate's gone, the girl is gone - it's now time to fix the sleep schedule, get back in the gym, and plug that 7 hours of volume 6 days a week. Really wanna get back into a solid routine and get things back on track.

Will be back to updating this thread daily as of tomorrow.

Thanks yall for reading this tome.

tl;dr chicks man

GOT GET 'EM !

I feel like the thai women would annoy me so much

you are surely balls deep in Asia...

Work hard, play hard. Sounds like you are enjoying your time out there! Tell your friend to put on some headphones if he doesn't want to listen you **** tinder chicks' brains out.
