Yoo, some friends from back home visited me for a few days and just hung out with them, so kinda lost track of the weekly goals. They are pretty similar minded, run their own business with designing websites (they will actually design our new bluffthespot website) and social media. Also shot a vBlog with them for my personal channel.
One of them paid 40euros just to talk to a stripper for ~5min lol.

This is my November graph

I played a lot of my volume on untracked sites also. Still, estimate my volume this month was ~25k hands, which is a bit lame. I do emphasize playing when I feel sharp or not playing at all, plus spent a lot of time coaching and doing bluffthespot stuff.

Speaking of that, I will be doing another (now habitual) stream Saturday at 8PM and MMASherdog will do a round on Sunday 11PM (both Malta time), on https://www.twitch.tv/bluffthespot .

Overall, pretty good month, I am looking to keep hard on the grind at least until I go to Bucharest on 12th Dec for holidays.

Regarding non-poker stuff, I am also in charge of developing the social media side of BluffTheSpot, which will be a veeery interesting and exciting adventure. Def looking forward to doing some experimenting there.

Until next time!


Ohhh, where are the sunny days of Malta...

Ok time for some real talk.

I want to write this down here so I can look back on it.

I feel pretty overwhelmed right now. Feels like I always have 1000+ tasks to do and it never ends.
Getting more involved with BTS to take it to the next level, taking charge of the social media side of the business, still coaching full-time, making videos, streaming 1x/week, oh and yeah playing poker and improving -- quite the challenge.

I don't have a problem with working a lot. The main problem I have is that I still want to put in good volume with poker since it's still my main source of income. And I just can't pull it off right now, so I agonize over it.

At the same time I feel all this pressure is good. It's meant to take me to the next level. It's all in how you frame it in you're mind right?



I was reading Elon Musk's biography last night since I couldn't sleep - my mind was still rushing too hard (happens a lot lately).

There was a part that impressed me. While being the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, whenever he gave someone in SpaceX an apparently impossible project (seems he likes to do that) and that person said it can't be done, or it's not enough time, Elon would say 'OK, you're off the project and I will take over. I will show you that it can be done, while being CEO of 2 companies'. The sick thing he always did it! He always got that project done!

So this kinda serves as inspiration that I can have all this sh.t down. It will involve pushing myself hard and being razor sharp with my focus and self management. I will need to set aside time to make my brain rest at the end of every day to balance out the craziness and prepare it for a new day. Have a good sleep schedule. Meditate 20m+ again so I can sleep. Maximize efficiency in my work. Delegate tasks.



^Lol i love this gif too much

Also let's save the thread in style

Well, I can feel getting more and more control back and actually making progress in a lot of areas which is good. Didn't play any poker today which is bad.

Good thing is that I am always looking to step up my game to the next level.

Today I was sweating Mixgrill since, well yes he's crushing highstakes, so I think I still have plenty to learn from him.

A big mistake that prevented me from learning from someone like him and generally preventing ppl from getting better at poker is not being humble enough and having an arrogant, know-it-all attitude. I see that in students sometimes (altho pretty rare) and makes me see it easier in myself.

So today I realized I can improve significantly in 3 areas
  • Using stats
  • Using timing tells
  • Using past dynamics with players

Stay humble and always be open minded to learning from others, even if it contradicts the 'way you see poker'. Damn, so hard sometimes lol.



Daniel

PS. We're gonna have a full weekend on https://www.twitch.tv/bluffthespot

*all streams are Malta time
, followed by a glamorous Mixgrill stream on Monday 11PM Malta time so come hang out. Ppl seem to like his streams more than mine so i'm a bit jealous tbh.

Yoo, yeah I am def pretty focused on overall improvement. The way I see it through poker I build up skills and discipline that will help me further along in my journey, when I transition into business for example.

2nd and 4th tunes are strong, other 2 are a bit too aggro. Also it's fine if you admit you're mostly here for the pics.



PS. Catch streaming in 20min on https://www.twitch.tv/bluffthespot , I will be playing 200zoom and saturday chillin.

I see there's two videos up on the BluffTheSpot twitch that are available to subscribers. Will the videos be staying up from now on?

I'd probably subscribe if the videos (including Mixgrill) stayed up for at least a few days after each stream because the times often don't suit me.

Im enjoying the stream and thread man!

Also if you're feeling overwhelmed, consider looking into time management and scheduling areas of study! I've been there with the insane amount of little but important things to do while still trying to maintain decent volume, but my scheduling is so on point now I actually find myself with nothing to do sometimes (which leads to more study/grind)

Hey Daniel. Love some of your vlogs. Some great advice for sure.

Fixing broken sleep schedules is hard but recommended to shift at most 2 hours a week gradually. Expose yourself to light as soon as you wake up and eat within an hour. Otherwise just strict alarms I guess but that's a nightmare.

I keep late hours but have managed to fit them around my life by having lunch with friends for 'breakfast' at 1pm or dinner for 'lunch' at 7pm and fit poker around that.

hey I asked the guys and we will think about it but unlikely, best case scenario will leave them on for 1-2 days.

Thanks bro, think my sleep ****s up my scheduling hard actually, main leak by far, but yes I won't complain and actually enjoy the challenge of being so overwhelmed by tasks from so many different areas.

Those are some pretty good tips, thanks. Yeah I think I am asking too much of myself -- like today I went to bed at 6.30AM but I want to go to bed at 12PM 2 days from that, lol.

Pretty sure it's some instagram girl, would also like to get some hits on her.

========================
Now all I'm thinking is 'daaaaaaaaamn the poker life is sooo easy and stress free!'. Like the life where all u have to do is grind and improve? PFFFT, the dreaaaam. Business is soo much more complex and stressful.

I made a vblog on my personal channel, just quick thoughts on self development, it's a term that gets thrown around a lot but can it be a waste of time?

It came after I realized ppl pretty close to me, that I actually care about and want to be happy got more and more unhappy over the years.
And I think it's mainly because they did not work on themselves.


At the same time, this video gets you thinking as well, basically saying that after 25yrs old self development CAN be useless.
