Alright guys, just a few things I wanted to share
I've had to change my schedule - I always find it hard waking up, so I haven't been streaming this week (apart from doing the hand review on Monday).
I have signed up to PocketFives. If I can make it into the top 100 in New Zealand, then i'll be a happy man
This is my profile on there -

As you can see, my best ever poker score is 76th in the $55 Sunday Marathon $125K GTD for $266.
That is my favourite NLHE tournament. However, I cannot afford to stay up all night playing poker when that tournament is on, so once a change in circumstances happen, I will make sure I play this tournament on a weekly basis
However, I will get up at 5am NZT Monday to Thursday to play this tournament on PokerStars:
This is an 8 game tournament that lasts for approximately 6 hours. It's only been going for 2 months on PokerStars and I will definately aim to play it starting this week
If I get knocked out of the 8 game early,
I will play PLO 5 cash games on GG Poker, until 11am NZT - just like I did in my last video hand reviews.
In regards to trading, i'm not sure when I will start this. I might have to rejig my schedule, getting up and going to bed at different times of the day, because the nature of trading, means I want to be trading between 9-2am NZT Monday to Friday.
Trade reviews will be done on my trading twitch channel in the weekends. I will be recording my trading sessions and taking note of when I opened and closed a trade, so I can commentate on it when I create a you tube video.
So my weekly schedule will look abit like this:
Trading; 9-2am NZT Monday to Friday
Poker - 8 game on PokerStars - 5am to 11am NZT at the latest Monday to Thursday.
PLO 5 cash games on GG Poker, after I get knocked out of the 8 game. If I win the 8 game, or make the final table, I will not be playing PLO 5 cash games on that day.
Sleep til 6pm Monday to Thursday after the poker is finished for the day.
Friday go to sleep early at 2.30am NZT on Saturday after the final trading session of the week.
Saturday at 2pm NZT, conduct all poker hand review sessions of key hands in cash games and or tournaments and upload video to you tube. Keep it to 2 hour video maximum.
PLEASE NOTE: 8 game hand reviews will be conducted on the spot via the stream. I will sit out the next hand whilst I review the previous hand live on stream. I will record the time this happened and edit the hand review into the video that I create using my video editor program that I use
Sunday at 2pm NZT, conduct all trading reviews of key trades won and lost and why that outcome occured - upload video to you tube. Keep it to 2 hour video maximum.
I've just bought a new computer and I will be offline for a day or so whilst I am setting up the new PC and OBS studio etc. That will probably not be happening until next week though at the very latest.
As much as I want to play the 8 game in another hour or so, I will pass. You always have to know your limits
Good night everyone
