Hello everybody . My name is Razvan , I am 21 years old and I've just quited university to play poker full time. I am staked by SmartSpin team and I've decided to make a blog to boost up my motivation .
At this moment I am playing 15s and I want to move up to 30s in June .
My goal for this month is to play 2 k games and 120 hours minimum.

At this moment I have 1703 games and 93 hours played .
This is my graph for this month :


Cev is pretty low for this stake but I am constantly working on my game and I will improve day by day for sure .
Ok so that's all for now , will make an update later today . GL !

All the best!

Thanks sir ! Indeed I had a very lucky day .

Played 6 , 5 hours for a total of 134 games and I had my HU SB game reviewed by our coach TexasBaton during tonight coaching and I feel pretty confident with my game right now but still a lot of room for improvement .

Here is the graph :





GL everyone and may the variance be on your side , lol !

Quick update :
- played close to 7 hours today
- made hands review for like 1 hour
- made it to the gym and killed my upper body , lol .

Pretty safisfied with today's results , here is the graph :





GL at the tables, see ya tomorrow !

Ok, I can call this month my first month as a full time poker player . Results where not the best but I saw a very big improvement since last month and all I can say is that I am moving in the right direction .

Goals that I had for May :

1 . To play 2k games . Result : 2411 games
2. To play 120 hours . Result : 129 hours

I also meet the criteria to play at 30s from now on so I call this month a succes !
This is the graph :



Goals for June :

1. To play 1.5k games minimum . (This sounds crazy but I will be 2 tabling for a while so it will be harder to get in the volume )

2. To play 150 hours

3. To study 20 hours minimum.

4. To make at least 40 cev at 30s .

Quick update :

Played 26 hours and a total of 353 games so far ; I am very satisfied with my game so far and my work ethic .

About this limit first impression is that there are more regs but still they are pretty weak so nothing to worry about . Hope to move up to 60s in the next month but we will see how my graph will look like on a more reliable sample . But for now :

Nice thread GL

Looks like you're running hot in cev in this sample, as I understand you need to play 1.5k games with 40 cev to move up to 60's?

@RLGallday , no . That was just my personal goal. In order to get promoted I have to achieve 100 bi + in EV post rakeback within a month . Also I need to have positive cev against regs ( minumum 0.25 chip/hand counted from at least 2000 last games or for sample less than 2000 games 0.40 chip/hand )

How many tables you play at once?

@Intelops , I am playing 2 tables atm and will keep on playing 2 tables for a while just because I want to develop much better understanding of the game which I hope will allow me to move up in stakes faster .

Quick update :

- played 71 hours this month ;
- played 1007 games ;
- studied at least 10 hours .

I am running horrible even if the graph doesnt show it , mostly coolers which does not appear on my graph but overall Im confidend in my game and I am on track with my goals for this month . Graph :

GL! Keep it up.

Thanks sir! GL u 2 , I m following ur blog btw haha

Hello everybody, I'm officially back!

I've started playing again spins at the beginning of this year alongside my full time job.

I've managed to climb from 3s to 30s spins and I don't plan on stopping here.

I now have a 2 nights per week job and I can focus on poker the rest of 5 days.

Moreover, I live in UK now since November 2016.

I'll post some graphs now:

3s stake


7s stake


15s stake


30s stake



Other things worth mentioning:
- I still play for Smart Spin;
- I have grown as a person and I will not stop until reaching my goals.


Any questions feel free to ask.

GL GL !

Thank you, NotComingOutside.

Thank you, Xptboy. Your blog is an amazing read and a big inspiration for my self.

The only objective that I didn't meet was volume which I missed for 2.5 hours. Everything else was spot on and I am happy with my work ethic so far. Results wise I ran & played bad and this was my worse week I have had lately. Can't describe that feeling when you look at your graph after 7 days just to realise you have lost money.
Anyway, that's enough whining for now.
