tyty for the feedback and support bro!

Quick update to say I've donated my share of the prop bet charity funds. It worked out to $2191 raised which is £1671, so £557 to each of our charities. Again, thank you to all those who donated, tuned in and showed your support <3

Here is proof of donos (had to wait for my placement to get in touch with bank details cus their website is win95)





In other news, stars seem to have totally removed seating scripts which is extreeeeemely exciting news. Gunna see if i still have those lightening fast bumhunting skills that i relied on for so many years of my poker career

I have one more week before i fly to Australia on the 1st May. Stuck a few k for the month still so hoping to close out April with some river bzzzt.

In other news, I have a meeting/opportunity to pick the brain of BitB's mental game coach on Friday. I got a variety of questions I wanna ask to hopefully fill in some of the gaps that i currently have regarding my own thoughts. Will post an update about that later in the week though!

glgl!

April Results

Yooo, sorry for the lack of updates. I have felt rather unmotivated to post for a number of reasons. This is largely due to taking time to figure out how i'm going to proceed with the next year of my life - going back to finish my Masters in Sept/Oct. I've visited a couple locations to start up my private practice (likely half a day a week) and have found a beautiful spot in East London. I also had a long conversation with a mental game coach with regard to how I may put my package together. This has been super exciting/thought provoking for me. That coupled with social events and grind, I haven't really found the time to post. And I'm heading to Australia for a month tomorrow to meet my gf's parents/extended family for the first time and do some travelling around the country.

I haven't fully decided what I'm gunna do with this PGC but I will definitely be keeping it open. I think that this may well turn into more of a mental game blog where we can discuss topics/podcasts/videos, and of course, some poker results here and there. I've been building a bit of a following on IG over the past few months and the rate at which i receive messages for advice on psychological issues is quite astounding. Really time to step into gear and get working on it as i feel there is a monumental gap in the services provided at present, and also I'm really missing the variety of things I did while training.

I envisage my routine next year to look something like this; private practice seeing non-poker clients for 1 day a week, psychotherapy for poker players 1 day a week (not gambling addiction related, rather those who suffer psychologically and are poker players who need therapy), mental game coaching one day a week, and then playing poker 2-3 days a week. I'm prob biting off more than i can chew, but hey, gotta aim high! I'm gunna get started on my website over the next month too.

Anyway, those are just a few thoughts so if you got any comments/recommendations, drop a post!

Here are my results for April. Was hating it when i was down nearly 7k but we made a decent uptick to book b2b (wtf) winning months!



I'll be knocking around 2p2 here and there until i'm back (27th May), but take care and gl until then.

peace
