So. I started this blog as a some kind of a diary. I want to be able to read my feelings and results afterwards. Hopefully this will last long and from time to time I will get some sober replys to this. I know this is an internet forum so there are trolls here and there but hopefully this wont be full of those if the blog lives long. To the point now.
I'm young man from Scandinavian country. I have been playing poker about since summer of 2014 now and then. After I turned 18 I have lost my savings (about 10k euros) and my financial situation doesnt look pretty good. I have played poker live, online and even did one trip to EPT (didn't play any tournaments). I started with NL and then moved to action packed PLO. And as the game changed to PLO, the stakes have been growing as well. When i started NL cash games about 2 years ago, i played NL10 etc. When i turned 18 and was able to cash out my savings, my main game has been PLO200+. I have studied the game, took coaching, watched videos and read books. I don't consider myself as a total fish. In my opinion my biggest leaks as a poker player have been bad bankroll management and overblown aggressiveness in live games like trying to prove my place at the table. This added to pretty bad run at higher stakes drove me broke. In a last week I have lost over 5k euros (about 4k in poker, 500 in bets and 500 in table games, that i have not previously played, but i don't know why I started them. Hopefully those games are behind.) Now i have about 50d on my Stars acco, 150 on my bank acco, and 50 in cash. I own about 900 euros to fast cash loan companies (deadlines on September), and about 200 from my phone I bought last year on installment. I still live home with my sister, mother and her husband. Both my parents are wealthy-ish.
I have a job that pays me about 1000 euros per month for about 6 months a year. I have already finished the obligatory schools and don't have a school place for next semester. I will propably be looking for a job pretty soon.
The 50d on my Stars acco are going to turn in the real money and this blog is about to have results from it. I only play PLO2z and MM tourneys at the moment. The rake on PLO2z is just enormous, but I am sure I can beat it and move up the stakes. I am breakeven player at 50z after rakeback on about 50k hands.
tl:dr etc. Hopefully someone read the whole wall of the text and doesn't think his/her time was wasted. Every comment is welcome. I also try to post gym visits here. Also sorry about my not-so-great english
