Making 15K at SNG until the end of the year and enjoying life. Making 15K at SNG until the end of the year and enjoying life.

Hey guys,

I`m a SNG player from Romania and I`ve been playing poker since 2013. Already made a chllange this year: https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/1...kroll-1709048/
I`m doing this challenge to motivate my self to play more and keep an organized schedule, because I`m not spending as much time at the tables as I would like to. This year I played 850 hours, meaning around 105 hours every month.

The poker challenge:
15K$+ from today until the end of the year.
Play SNGs from 9man to 180 man, between 2$ and 30$, mostly turbos. I`ll add some normal and hyper speed when I don`t have enough tables.
Along with the SNGs I`ll add some MTTs. Around 5% of games played will be MTTs.

The "enjoying life" challenge:
Make time to travel.
Play football every week.
Set up a board gaming night with friends every week, if possible.
Work out 5 days a week (15 minutes or so).
Finish 2 books until the end of the year.

I`ll post my progress regularly.

Good luck at the tables!

I`m doing it in the morning (some basic exercises like stretching and push ups) to prepare me for the day. Not that much progress, but i feel better. I did the 3,4 days a week going to the gym stuff but it was so boring and took a long time. "I ain`t got time for that"

Acording to my general graph for this 2 days i`m running over EV. Actually I`m running bad at FT and at 30$.

The -450$ means 15buyins for 30$, or 30 buyins for 15$, so this is not much at all.

Hey! It`s hard to have a graph like that in hypers, lot of variance. Played a lot of 18mans + spins and after I improved my game in Global Staking. Also Holdem Resource Calculator or Icmizer helps a lot. GL!

glgl!

If you are still a little short at the end of December, try to fire off a few higher 180s, like the $2,100s.

I don`t think I can get to HU with all the coolers and bad beats. I`m safe.

Weekly update:

Really bad week at SNGs. Considering the way I ran, it`s a miracle I was BE at SNGs.
Got 1st in a hyper MTT for 2,2k$
Did my work out, played football, did some reading (S.P.Q.R a History of Ancient Rome- Mary Beard - great book).
Saturday is a day off from poker. See you Sunday at the tables.



Good luck!
