Of course. I think it is even by default, but you can choose to use real names if you want.

Nah. In that regard, im infact not lazy at all. I just use 2 screens and as im only playing 6 tables i can fit them all even though some are bigger than others.

At one point i was playing at 5 sites at once. Now im down to 3-4.

Instead of watching movies / listening to music i normally scan lobbies, trying to find the best tables.

Thanks man. Shot didnt go through. Had some unforseen medical expenses that shot through the roof so need to take a small break with shot taking :P

Will be taking a shot next month.

Also will be looking to make new plans for this month and structure a more realistic goal for me. Its all a process and seeing as i havent been able to play more than maybe 120 hours a month before, going straight to 200 is a bit far fetched.

So will be posting my new goals later this afternoon.

Also came into this wonderful post by Benjamin Barker, that everyone should look at.

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/17...35/index7.html

Its the first post in the seventh page.

Absolutely mindblowing and (lifechanging?) for me.

Will get to that more in my next post later today.

So anyways, here are the results in dollars from my latest challenge. Which im now ending.



Great results, just bad volume.

Played 39/200 hours. But thats it.

Cu all laters homies

New life goals and poker goals, February 9th to February 29th

I have 21 days to work with. Will take only 1 day off. Meaning no poker at all. As i said in previous post ive been a slacker, ive never had more than 120 hours in a month played. More or less.

So its time to change that. Its more important than anything right now. But i also understand its a process. So i will increase the hours month to month until i reach 200 or more. ( Which should be feasable seeing ive cut series, movies and loser friends out of my life ).

Ok so what are the goals?

Pokerwise:

Will aim to play 6 hours coupled with 2 hours of studying per day.

So for this small challenge, its 120 hours played. My goal for Mars will probably be 160 hours, and in April 200 hours.

And when i make these 120 hours before Mars 1st, ive already set a new record for myself. Seeing ive already played some hours this month. So i can be happy with that.

Also, ive always been listening to podcasts or music etc whilest playing. But in my last post i linked to a post made by Benjamin Barker here on 2+2, that literally blew my mind.

So what ive done is that ive bought earplugs to keep all sounds out. And i will try and play 100% of my hours with 100% focus. ( This is also a process and i might screw it up abit ). But i clearly see i have a problem and im leaving tons of information on the tables. So im glad ive taken the first step to change, which is seeing youre having a problem.

I will also warmup for 3-5 minutes by doing breathing exercises and or visualization before every poker session. Will journal everything i do, and after every session rate my technical and mental game, but also my focus during the session.

Guess thats it about poker.


Diet and exercise:

My diet has been horrible last few months. Need to change that and get back to fighterform.

So to keep it short,

- 0 French fries and fast food.
- 0 Diet soda.
- Focus on noneprocessed foods and eat tons of vegetables.
- 0 Alcohol except my day off when ill probably party with GF and friends.
- Go to the gym 4-5 days a week.
- Drink tons of water.

Quite sure thats everything for now.

Starting my first session for this challenge quite soon. Really excited. Big thanks to Benjamin for sharing such wonderful information.

Best of luck to you all out there!

Go get that life you guys want

Those are some big goals. GL

Btw about posting hands anonymously. HM2 doesn't show your SN, it says Hero. The only thing you need to hide (if you want to) is to delete poker room on the top of each hand. But already uncovered where are you playing so I don't think that would be necessary

Anyways, best of luck with that volume and healthy diet.

Hey I am curious if you managed to keep up. How is it going ?
I hope you did not burn out, you had a very positive mindset.
