Hi guys,

Will blog a little bit about my journey at HU Turbo SNGs. Currently playing anything between 10 to 30$ SNGs.

I want to move up as soon as possible so will try to put in some good amount of time into studying.

Past weeks graph

So since I've updated my OS to Windows 10 I can't log in to my main site, so been only able to grind through iPad (lol). So un-GTO like but whatever, they said it should be sorted soon. If not I'll just move sites at the end of the week.

Anyway up to date graph from propokerlabs (nice heater):

Took some time off HU SNGs for a while, dabbled a bit at PLO and considered if focusing on some other games would possibly be more +EV. PLO seems so much fun and I won a bit but the learning curve seems quite high compared to NLH but at the end of the day HU SNGs is where my heart is in poker. The cartel system at Stars seem horrible for the game, though. But unfortunately there is nothing we can do about it (and most of my volume is at other Euro sites anyways).

Also was raging quite hard the past few weeks, drinking a lot but will try to be sober for the foreseeable future.

Will try to update the blog a bit more often now that I try to get my focus on HU SNGs back and hopefully good things will follow. Cheers and good luck!

So I think I'll finally start blogging again, tried to do it before but stopped. I am still trying to get better at HU Turbos. Took a break from online play for about 6 months when I dabbled in the live scene. Some good times, some bad times as well, haha but mostly a good experience.

Then after listening to Joey's podcast with Liqqa tried out Edgebet which turned out to be a nice success. Put in around 5k bets on marathonbet before getting limited. Earned some money there.

Now I am back online and starting from the bottom at the 5EUR level turbos on a untracked euro site. Been crushing so far as expected, mainly playing them to regain confidence and skills. My BR stands at about 150BIs for the current stake with about 1k more on Skrill but don't want to use it for this specific journey in my poker life. Will try 10EUR level probably next week.

The main idea of starting blogging again is holding myself accountable. I ****ing hate how much time I've wasted. I have all of the time in the world but for some reason I don't spend it too well. Hopefully that will change.

Another good day at the tables, ended up +41.37EUR today. I need to study more - I remember my beginning days in poker when I had literally 10 notepads written full of notes from books I read and videos I saw about poker. Now - I haven't done jack **** in regards to that in a while.

Excited for tomorrow though! Hopefully I can have similar day to this and need to do some studying before I grind (looks like weather won't be that good so that should help).

I think my exact days profit today was 20EUR. Didn't study today because went on a 5 hour long hike which was +lifeEV. Played a lot, was hit by a lot of variance but buckled down and decided to grind that **** out which I did.

New day tomorrow with the same goals. I hope I get just a little bit better every day. GL me and anyone else here!

Day started out really bad, variance hit me hard today but kept my mental focus and just grinded it out. At some point was down about 10BI's but was able to grind back to breakeven point which I consider a success for today.

Have been spending some time in Malta recently so I'll post some pictures here.

Decent day results wise (+30EUR) but wasn't happy with how I managed my emotions. Think I spewed off 2 buy ins because of that. I have a copy of Jared Tendlers 1st book so should re-read some of that. Might do that tomorrow, actually. I might start taking shots at 10EUR games later this week as I have about 70BI's for them.

Been listening to some Ibiza tunes while grinding. God ****ing dammned, I want to go there. Malta is good and all but I don't think anything in Europe really compares to Ibiza.

That being said here are some more pics from Malta.

Around -80EUR today. Crushed by variance today - couldn't hold for my life. Surprisingly it didn't affect me until after losing around 15bi's in an hours timespan while being a favourite in every all-in situation.

**** variance.

Back to proper grinding day today, took a 2 day break because I visited a friend abroad. Great times, was really happy to see him again - after almost 10 year break!

+31EUR today. Felt good throughout, kept my focus and my calm and felt all around good today. Til tomorrow! Going out today so expect a massive hangover tomorrow... GL me.

What a great night out Saturday was! Awesome to meet a lot of friends and got insanely drunk. So Sunday grind was really short and ended -10EUR. Not that bad.

Today I was +33EUR. Good day in terms of results and my play, also emotional control was at 95%. Thinking about going to London for a while to grind live but not sure yet.
