Hey what's up guys! WEEKY UPDATE!
CASH ONLINE
So regarding online cashgames, I've basically sticked to my plan and just played 1 online session and also yesterday when I started with only 2 tournaments, playing NL400 and NL600, and zoom500 again.
My feeling is that I'm playing pretty well considering I hadn't played for almost a year online, still probably EV- for zoom500, but EV+ for regular games.
It surprises me that actually the regular games haven't got any tougher, they seem very beatable still, I don't know if NL1K is the same, don't want to bother playing that right now, but NL400-600 isn't tough or at least as tough as I expected.
Anyway here are the results so far:
I don't know how much more I'm going to play, at this point online already served it's purpose, which was mainly to apply stuff I studied and get new ideas, I have so many ideas/stuff to study that I actually don't need to play more online, but I still might because I've been enjoying it a lot lately, but it's the last on my priority list right now.
WCOOP SUNDAY
I basically played what's on the pic above + the bigger 109 where I made last 2 tables unfortunately.
Ended up cashing 2 out of the 5 I played, the bigger 109 for 332$ and the 530 kickoff for 1190$, ending the WCOOP something like -1k for myself.
This are my bust out hands:

2.1K BUST: I was super unsure about this hand at the moment, and it's probably a bad shove I must admit, might be a check/call + check/fold turn.

That's basically it!
LIVE CASH
I only played to sessions, the last one I had to leave earlier than I wanted as the recreational proposed to play ROE of PLO/NLH and I have no clue about PLO but also wasn't going to be that annoying kid who says no and the rest of the tables says yes, so I just left.
Result where both in the green, but nothing special.
STUDY
I studied 15 hours this week, and the most important is that it was super effective. 90% of the stuff I did was PIO stuff, and I feel like I should just study and not do anything else right now until I leave to LA. Study is my number 1 priority for the rest of the month and Live poker number 2, online cash is just for when I can't go play live and I'm tired of studying basically.
Here's one of my excels to keep control of my hours:
A mix of spanish and english in there xD.
PLANNING FOR THIS WEEK
My plan for this week is to study at least 13.5 hours and to play live 3 days, hopefully 15 hours at least.
GASTRONOMY SECTION
Last week we went to CORE by Clare Smyth. Clare Smyth was voted best female chef by the world's bet 50, so we were pretty excited about this one! Here are some pics:
I think that's all, will try to post some cashgame hands the following days!
