That is all my fault.

1) We build the roll to move up, so cashing out will be kept at a complete minimum (rent, food, basic stuff to work)

2) I am very strict as a coach. Many people will not understand and i don't even discuss my methods. But they work and produce results.

Once we get on a very comfortable financial level, then there will be no more austerity. Keep in mind that I also get a cut of winnings (haven't asked for anything so far though).


Having that said, i'd always be in favor of gym and encourage to do this as its good for health & mind. Saving for gym is bs

Pretty much everything Gordon said, but ALSO that was a while ago when I had much less money to my name and where I was living in Cambodia (paying only for food+internet). I am now Living in Rosarito (I don't think you read the whole thread so you think I'm still in cambodia ) so bills are much more. Financially things are slowly getting better and better but still will be on a tight budget.

Heard its cheap over there too? Shiiit I'll take that . Nah Jk I chose rosarito because its close to California+ Its Relatively Cheap compared to every other place. Unfortunately this place is a bit 3rd-world like too.

Ok now I know everything,
I am subbed for sure!
Keep crushing!

Thanks

Today I was sick, not extremely sick but had a sore throat. I didn't want to not play today though at all due to already how much hours I've missed / days I've taken off. I managed to play 4 hours, had to go to other places and check out monitor prices.

Which I'm still Looking for a monitor 19-23 inches please send me a pm if you're from rosarito and are interested in selling it

I've played 5 hours so far today.. I'm taking a break for now gonna go shower eat etc. Ate a meal while playing but yeah dinner time.

I been eating these 5 meals a day and I really am starting to feel a difference, like in the morning I wake up hungry// night time im hungry. I do believe its because my body is getting use to eating more.

*I sure hope the results will show up soon and I will be gaining weight*

Heres my graph. It has been a while since I've posted one, but its my best month so far ... I hope the graph curse doesn't happen again.

So I accidently played 6 hours instead of 4 hours. I will finish my other 2 hours later tonight I'ma go try to buy my monitor right now (Hope my neighbor is free).

Heres my graph for today



forgot to post.. My biggest hand I've ever played

Why you didnt raise him on the flop?

Keep crushing. 10k month already? :O

It's a relatively dry board, to be honest I probably could have, I had a read on him that he usually lead out with nothing and checked with a hand with some sort of value. I just decided to call, and pretty much try to get it in on any turn, but he did the work for me.

I stopped early today played roughly 6 hours.. I don't think I was playing very good. Decided to just stop early.


Graph for the month:




Cya Tuesday. I will probably post a graph next week again. We'll see

Looking awesome!

How's your poker/life balance going?

How many hours a day are you playing and how many days a week?

GL and keep it up!

u are ****ing crushing OP, my jaw just dropped to the floor...
how much of this is against regs?
what are your SNs?

Sick graph OP. GL

Hi,

I've been following this thread and your progress form the very start, congratulations! Excellent determination shown really happy to see your success!

Elliot

Its still somewhat hard, I figured my balance will never be good. Not because life and poker is hard to balance. The fact is that I have almost no friends here, yeah "make new friends" i've done that. We go to parties/drink etc, to be honest thats not my thing and I'm probably gonna go sober for a very long time. Reason 1) It ****ing sucks playing poker the very next day when you have a headache. 2) I nearly blacked out last time, and during that time I realized that I'd rather be living real life instead of a fantasy. And to me when I'm drinking I feel like its a fantasy and I have no control, and I'm the beer's bitch, where as when I'm sober I have control to do what I want and when I want I'm the man of the house. Not to mention my livers are thankin me. The Reason why I have no friends is because there all far away, and the way I keep my communication is via skype, soo that doesn't really help me stay away from the computer.

I try to play 8 hours a day, sometimes I play less. I usually never play more.

Unfortunately I cant give out all my SNs my stars is 1flightaway.

I don't know how to answer "how" much is against regs since I don't count specific hands like "oh so and so against regs" also this is the best answer I can give: Pretty much I obviously prioritize fishes and give action to regs when I don't get action so to anyone I sit out please don't get butt hurt, instead write on this forum saying "1 hour this time these stakes 4 tables etc" 200NL and below only. Its also very random, sometimes I get like 50% fish 50% regs, 80% fish 20% regs. As to a couple of days ago It was like 80% regs and 20% fish (Just guessing).


Thanks guys; I remember using youre mp3 players for about a month they were really helpful during my time of need.

Stoplossing for today.

FU poker!



Gonna fix my monitor and thats it for today.

Good to see u do well. Keep on crushin' !!
-How do u manage to have a consistent positive line at non showdown winnings for the last x-hands?
...Although my last ~75k hands are 11bb/100 my non showdown winnings are always steady eddy in the red.

If you played 8 hours per week you should had something like 15k hands but most of your graphs are maximum 5k which means you play average 2.5 hours per day. Why that?

hi so with gordon 6max max course+ hard work you think its really possible to crush nl1000??
you say u study and play poker, what are the approx % for both and what kind of stuff do you study to improve your
poker? thanks

its not about the red graph or blue graph because thats determined on the type of player you play. Don't know how to exactly answer this but if you have a good winrate theres no point of changing anything

I disappeared for a while, I went to california to visit my mom a while ago when she was at the hospital. Also My last recent all graphs was pretty much for the week not the month so yes it does add up considering I did play 2 hours less/ and yesterday I stoplossed at 1k hands.

And I think 15k hands a week is way too much. I don't think I've ever played 15k hands in a week playing HU, I think 12K was max.


For Gordons 6max course I cannot say a thing. I've seen it, but I have not played it enough to show results. For heads up I think its possible (who knows though I'm not there yet). In the past I use to do that, but I got alot figured out for now I usually dont study unless I have a problem so as of late its probably like 98% play 2% study.

Nothing to really say for today. Tomorrow I will be playing around with ranges and making some adjustments, feel like things were also a bit off today.

I got owned today nothing to really say. Its been a tough ride, the switch was bond to happen though

ouch... **** happens tho

Yep was running too hot for the month lol in the UNDER EV club again. np though

A while ago, I went with one of my friends to a strip club (first timer) was kind of spontaneous and I didn't really want to go but was kinda stuck so just went with it. Started out drinking, and sitting next to a stripper who probably was a 5 at best. Her opening was to whisper in my ear and say "can i **** you tonight". HMM tempting gonna break the NO HOOKERS rule since shes a stripper (definite exception). Joking, I smiled and said "I don't know".

Thinking probably not I'm not into strippers sorry guys, i'll pass and recommend her to you guys if you are down FWIW I know a "pimp" so if you need a hooker I can get you one lol. She was a lil thick, it was a random strip club called "house of dolls" and its not too popular of a strip club. I started drinking more and more, they were making me down shots after shots I'm a weaksauce so it was hitting me rather quickly and was feeling a bit buzzed already. My friend started walking up stairs and we were all walking upstairs. We all walked into a room and then I was like ok whats gonna go on here I kinda had an idea, 4 sum potential. Shiiiett being drunk as hell thinking "well damn if it were to happen I'd take her friend instead". My friend ended up going to a different room with her.

**** all alone with a girl who is a 5 at best. She stripping and getting butt naked and proceeded to get close to me. Now at this point I should be a bit turned on I mean girls are girls regardless and tits are tits.. But nope nothing. As she got closer she started touching me, and off it went I finally got an erection. She began to unzip my belt.. I was freezing and was about to say "no not down, bring you're friend then we'll talk." (LOL). Joking, just in general I felt very awkward about the whole situation and rather be home and was just about to say that, Anyways as she was unzipping, a fight ensued and she got up and stopped.

I was a bit relieved and do stick to my thoughts of NO hookers.
If you need some HAPPYFUNTIME though again I know a friend who has some hookers lol let me know. Don't exactly know how pricey they are though.

--
People were telling me that going out alone is really fun sometimes. I never really did that for a long period of time I use to walk around for a bit and then just go back home.

I'ma try it and go out the whole day. We'll see what happens, maybe I'll meet a girl that ISN'T A HOOKER and take her home to the champ mobile.
