im afraid of the day cz will be ringfenced from .fr/winamax, or im unable to process my transactions from those sites to my .cz bank. over the last 3 years ive spent roughly 7~ months living in prague (zizkov), between epts, at epts, during spring. etc. sad to hear czech law is actually moving fast at something, i was hoping theyd be like mexico and never get anything done with pending legislation. gonna start moving my money off the sites. if you ever have any updates, please post them because id be very interested to hear where this goes/what the process is like

best of luck to you today

oh nice, but Zizkov doesnt sounds like the best address tbh )

you should be still able to proccess you transactions by using skrill or similar tools id say

yea its def not the best part of the city, but its the part i really got to know and the location is decent. had some friends living there and paid them a visit, and ended up overstaying. i actually just about moved to prague 3 weeks ago for a few months again, but decided instead to get my apartment in san diego, and maintain my place in mex. 2 rents is definitely cheaper than 3, and ill probably grind a better scoop with my 30 inch monitor anyways

yeah for sure, it has some magic, def pretty interesting part of the city.
how do u enjoy Prague ? any things which u hate about the city/ czech people ?
U should visit smaller city called Tabor about 1hour from Prague


yesterday I decided to stick to the plan and have a study day only b/c next month will be pretty huge so Id like to be confident about my game, I dont want to say after series ends " I should prepared better, I should work harder".. U know I just want to have a bit more tickets to this lottery than other guys - (Pads idea)

now I am going to have a coaching sess, then enjoy the weather for 1-2 hour and then crush (hopefuly) some those mtts

gl girls

Nothing super interesting happend from last update, had one grind session (no bink) , yesterday I studied a lot, had also coaching session, rly enjoying fact I am getting better every day, it was stupid I didnt have this approach to hypers, but you know, it WAS in the past so I dont need to be stressed about it today

today I tought I will have free day but I decided to put in few hours in study anyway to be prepared for tomorrow.
so now I will study few hours and but Id like to go sleep earlier to be 100% rdy.
Need to buy some fruits for tomorrow etc, maybe some salad or something like that. lso I plan to find some nice mix of music to sessions etc etc, all these "details" has influence on final results (game quality)

gl to you guys tomorrow

subbed
greetings from Poland

hope all things with law will be ok, i was in Pardubice in 2014(quite nice low stake buyins) and they had to cancel it in 2015 bc of some regulation. Hope it return in 2016

yep I hope as well
ty btw
--------------


nothing super important from the last session, maybe the "biggest" thing is I've stopped drink coffee, as I feel it hurts my game and sleep (which hurts my game) a lot. U know, sometimes(often) in my session I had momemts after drinking coffee I was chaotic, confused, couldnt focus which tilted me and lead to bad game in rest of the session. Yesterday I didnt drink any coffee and played best poker for a long time I think. Building stacks was so easy.

No bigger hits at all lately. Sunday I bricked, I played really bad and was really upset about my performance, it was also reason why I decided to stop drink coffee.

Today I will have longer session with my coach but no grind or study day either. Tomorrow I go on 3nights long vacation to some hotel there. Its first real vacation this year. I think timing is very good, as I will clear my mind but still will have a lot of time to prepare properly on SCOOP etc... I am really looking fwd to next week/s


I forgot to mention new mtt PS schedule. I am not so thrilled. Ok, structures are faster, I think its not so great, but its pretty normal in today poker world to have faster and faster games, but yeah, edge would be lower. But I am more disapointed about the fact there are really low ammount of the games which to play after Big33 I think. So even bigger reason to get better asap and try to play few tables of HS accros the sites.


ok, coach is waiting, g2g

bye

yooo guys

as first I must to say its really interesting how many good mtt players made a thread there last weeks. I feel my thread cant compete with them for now, as I dont have so many results so far. so probably will need post there some my naked pics or something like that ....


the vacation was really great, it was really relaxing and it also helped to my relationship id say, u know, I am with my gf about for 9 (I think) years so every trip like this helps


lately I had thoughts about my future goals in mtts. Should I try to develop my multitabling skills and playing more low-midstakes without big swongs or I should keep walking on the path to becoming really good player who is able to compete with all the best ? the 2nd options is for sure more risky, but tbh, I feel its really bigger fun/challenge etc. My personal ( and I think even of my coach) skillset, preference, is playing less tables higher, trying to pick up every possible spot/edge. Also Id like to try to play some livez in the future so would be better to be best possible player. But we all plays mainly for money, right, so it should be main factor.

Yesterday I played a bit more tables, just for try (not many, like 9) and I felt significant drop of quality, more significant than I should. I think my "talent" or w/e is playing less tables, but I am not sure, if there is any hs mtter who plays less than 8 tables in avg.

results wise I have really great EV lately (it started wwhen I stopped drink coffee, I think it is really connected tbh) and also had some smaller FTs, but sadly no win. yesterday I was 6th (I think) in counterpounch on PP and day before like 4th in some 888 tourney. I think my biggest leak is still FT icms, as I still have in my head some sng icm, so goal number 1 is work on that as I dont want to make any mistake on my FT of SCOOP ME

nice thing is our football team is back on 1st place and I started train again this week, so I eam really excited about end of this season



ok, I think thats all, I am going to continue in my study proccess.

gl (not on my tables)

Oh so you were on my counterpunch ft yesterday good fun, shame it played so shallow. And think in your case, going for option 2 and battle a bit with HS guys, does seem like the fun option.

yeah it was really really shallow, I was kinda disapointed about that fact. You gave me hard time, you adjusted well to the table dynamic and tried own these weaker guys. U were just unlucky. next time.

yep, I think 2nd is prolly better

Had a long post but I deleted it.
today I will make it in points:

- my sleep got worse a lot = played (very) bad last 3 days
- run awful - but I played bad so I deserve it
- no bigger hits
- no bigger volume
- today/tomorrow I will use as a "restart" day = I will try sleep well, I will study a lot
- my football team didnt win against really average team so we are not 1st anymore

So its not so easy to handle this. After the whole preparation to this month I didnt start well.
Actualy the word "start" is really important there.
I accept bad start when it helps to play better next weeks.
I accept the fact I make mistakes which can leads to fix those leaks in the future.

I am not happy about it and the goal is not making mistakes at all, but for now I (have to) accept it.
It would be much more stupid to be angry, really tilted about the fact I made some mistakes.
The important thing IMO is to find out WHY I made those mistakes and fix it and move on.

So GL to me to have stronger next week than this last one.

Good to see how solid your mindset is mate. The binks will surely follow!

just finished 5th in one of the PP events for 5k, had a big chiplead but than I lost 99 into TT - wasnt sure about that spot in the game tbh, as I had some edge + CL, but I reviewied after game and it was ok, really need to play more fts to have more ICM spots for reviewing - and after few missed flops I ran with TP to overpair for like 15bbs or something like that, obviously pretty disapointed atm as I really felt I will close it for 17k

never mind, I will save it for bigger FTs
also had some nice stacks/mincashes in outher tournaments

this ft actualy was a present from PP for my work ethic as I decided to play today even I felt pretty bad (relationship issue with gf) but I didnt want to be an emo child so I played and almost bink even tho I know I made some mistakes which I probably wouldnt do it if I would be 100%.

also trying to be more ZEN guy lately as I feel it can has huuuuge impact on my poker game

GL guys

this was 1st significant cash for longer period of time so hopefuly next will come soon again

Sunday was obviously horrible


I also had some thoughts about general approach to poker, I was thinking about getting back into playing offpeak so I would have daily routine as a normal human being and I would probably need to mix some sngs.. but Idk will see how it will be with gf, If I will be alone there will not be any single reason to play offpeak

Just finished 3rd in another powerfest for 7.3k or something like that.

Nice hotrun if we consider I slept like 7hours for last two days so I really didnt play my best these days. I found really hard to focus more deeply and remember hands played by oponnents, picking reads was much harder than if I am 100% ready obviously.

Today tbh I ran like a god in flips, FT I was card dead tho, never mind, even tho Id like/I should close some of these mtts. I think chance of closing was yesterday significantly higher than today even I ended on higher place, so I am pretty happy with today result.

Its fine I dont feel so tired even with so little of sleep. I really cant compare it with time I drank like 6 coffees per day. This is so much better.

trying eat healthier, exercice everyday and doing mediation/breath exercice before every session is really helpful not only for me as poker player but for me as human being. Iam really looking fwd to longterm progress.

Now I am going for a walk with my lovely dog, its pretty sucks my (ex)gf will take dog to her new flat. I will miss her (talking about dog) a lot. Its not 100% tho, so we will see how it ends.

gl guys

Keep fighting mate nice to see some deep runs, a bink will happen soon for sure! Taking care of life stuff is always overall positive ev for poker I'm finding, even if u give up a bit of time here and there for it, if it allows you to sustain your application and keep a healthy mindset and attitude then that can only transfer to good things on the tables. Have you tried yoga at all? I'm doing yoga and some meditation and breathing exercises myself and find it really helps. After a session I find it hard to clear my head and get as much out of it as I'd like, but before sessions it puts me in a really good space. I think once I learn to do these things effectively after sessions and put everything about poker out of my head, it will be super effective. Thanks for the update, keep it going!

thx Rob
No, I've never tried yoga, but for sure heard a lot of great stuff about it. Maybe I will try it soon. What do u recommend for start ? how u do it ? Outside? inside? I've found out these kinds of breat exercisec are really good, so I am more interested about this kind of stuff lately.
As cooldown after sesion walk with my dog works pretty well for me. I am usualy so tired after the session anyway.

Today I slept for 5 hours with really bad sleep again. I need fix this asap :/

Now iam going to review yesterday session and then grind again, after 5th and 3rd places I should win today something probably (no jinx please)

decent scores in powerfest series. what is the abi you are playing atm?

good luck sir!

so u guys really read this ? I thought I wrote it just for myself

ty vm

My abi is 55 atm, will get higher it soon I think. but lately there were good lower buyins mtts so I played a bit more tables so I decided to play them with a little drop of quality I must say. HS mtts variance (and lower edge) is a bit scary tbh and maybe those hsmtts are overrated but its my goal so I will do it

Decided to play today again even I felt even worse than yesterday.
I just finished another FT on PP, this was rly small tho, nice last hand





obv nice to have next FT and (slightly) profitable session

i have last table - low scoop. this would be nice FT
I probably will play few midstakes hypers as well and then I MUST sleep atleast for 7 hours, otherwise Idk if would be able to play tomorrow atleast for 75% of ability/quality

any1 wants a swap sundays % on 1k 888/SCOOP/PP ?
having ev bb/100 over 10 for more than last 30k hands at 55 abi. if interested PM

also I started using instagram again (push4glory), no sick photos yet, but now without gf instagram makes bigger sense IMO , I am also interested in following other poker players and see their lifestyle for sure

played rly bad yesterday, I was soooo tired I had to drink some coffee which made my game bad. I really hate it.
I bricked everything, apat of monson where I was 12th I think. But yeah, yesterday was eye opening.
today I finaly slept like 7 hours, pretty great feelin,
today is a free day, so just few hours study and then football and rest on tommorow morning match, then family party and maybe Id like to review few hands to keep my mind in grind mode to crush Sunday.

btw pretty happy for jdawg, that guy deserved this kind of success. gl to rest of us to crush it like him

just found this thread, very excited to lurk here, glgl

ty man, really appreciate all support <3

big sunday is there guys, will play all 3 1ks events,
tbh dont feel super well, but slept well, ate well so hopefuly I will feel better after warmup,

GL to us
