Hi guys, I'm Portuguese 24 years old and I play NL100 6 max at the moment.
I create this thread only to discuss and improve my game as a poker player and the main reason... develop my English that is mediocre while I'm posting about the game that I love

Since 2016, Pokerstars.pt is in my country and I worked in a medium way in my game from nl10 to 100 to be succeed, now I'm comfortable in my stakes with some decent results.

Simple facts about me:
I like travelling and enjoy things in life like red wine, a simple sunset or a simple conversation about life in a bar with friends at a Saturday night and I will try to share with you my routine and have a best approach to life and be more productive. Completely addicted to football (soccer USA).
I'm trying to be better in things like personal finances, mindset and be less impulsive in general.

This was my december at NL50:



My currently month 50 and 100 mixed:


I'm open to suggestions or things that you think that I can write to not be always the same boring 2+2 thread.

Let's start this

Really bad 1st session today :



Decent 2nd(fu***** ev):



Total hours played:~10

I was looking for chasing the losses I couldn't sleep because of adrenaline and things went decent but I think this was a mental leak and If I was winning I didn't do the second one.

January's end:




Non positive things...

I'm not really happy with the way I played last week, I spewed a lot and I have to improve my mental game a lot to reach another level.
I don't upgrade my game, I studied much less and I have to put the work in the following weeks.

Positive things...
Profit
The coaching that I gave to my 2 students was decent, I guess they improved this month.
Decent volume

February:
70k hands(let's try)
PROFIT!!!
No speeeew please! No f******* idiot calls.
A lot of work out of tables.
Focus!

Goals 2018:

4.05K EUR/60K
54.5K/700K Hands

Hey guys, February was not a good profitable month neither a good decent volume month.
But, I guess some things were really good...

My game changed a little bit, I'm adapting better to somee spots where before I started to bomb bomb bomb and using a WTF(G)TO line. Not a red line warrior anymore until I start working with solvers I guess.

So I let you with the graphs from February, the first 10 days of March and the 2018 graph. Maybe next month I start to put some 1/2.

Next trips:
End of March - Andorra (Do some ski)
April - Luxemburg ( to visit some friends) and Palma Maiorca (just chill)

February:



First 10 days of March:



2018:

my only suggestion is that in order to get to high stakes before you burn out on poker you should be willing to shot take. risk big win big! go for the brass ring!!! but seriously dont be afraid to aggressively move up in stakes even if you have to move back down right away if things dont go well. dont get stuck at any one level.

nice graphs man, and your english is legit bro. at least written you are good. =D

Hey man, a word of advice for you... You see that redline keeps slipping towards the end of your sessions. That'll be your concentration slipping. You want to try taking more breaks. Take up meditation. Or just remember to focus.

I prefer to not reveal yet, maybe at the end of the year! I played a lot at stars.pt (Portugal) inside/Close market ( not sure if correct words) the regulars in Portugal knows who I am. In the international community I'm a completely unknown and it feels good to be unknown

1/4 2018 Complete and...

The results are a bit far way that I wanted and thought in the beginning of the year, but I have 3/4 to reach that.

Good things - I'm doing well at 200, continuing to have a good time playing and learning and great time skiing this week in Andorra (Some videos and pics soon, I hope...)


Bad things - Low volume, 100k hands 3 months -.- , no new book this month.

Next month - Profit, profit, profit. Improve, improve, improve. Play more hands. Having a good time in Luxembourg with some friends.
