Good bye

I want to thank everyone who has followed my blog in the past. I have decided to stop posting on my blog. I want to dedicate more time to grinding, improving my game, moving up in stakes and opening a business. I also plan to manage my time better and reduce the reading/posting on forums(which use a lot of time) and I want to spend less time in front of the computer.

Good luck at the tables everybody!

February 2014 review

After 5 consecutive 5k+$ months, this is my first month where things started to go bad for me. I did not put in too much volume and I also did not play my absolute best. Its time to focus more and play better and start putting in more volume...

January 2014 review

I am a bit unhappy with my volume and I also am not too thrilled about the way I played, but I managed to hit my winnings goal, so at least that is nice I guess. Hopefully I will study more in february... Did anyone bink anything significant in the january all in shootouts?

Time saving app

I installed a week ago a really great FREE app, that reccomend to everybody. Basicly it disables all the adds and popups and video apps when you are browsing on the internet, on youtube or on inernet news websites. Saves a lot of your time, reduces cookies, prevents pshing and makes everything go much faster. 20seconds saved for each clip adds up.... Let me know what you think about this app and if you think it usefull.

2013 results

2013 was a great year for me. My game has improved, I tilt less, I know better what formats and stakes I can beat(mostly 25-50NL and sng's) and where I still need to learn(100-200NL and mtt's, etc), I play a lot more volume. Focusing my attention on fitness and changing my eating diet 4 months ago definetly improved the way I focus, think and play.  I hope in 2014 I will learn more and play a lot more volume. Here is a chart with differences between 2012 and 2013 for me and my results for 2013:

December 2013 review

My best month ever, in terms of volume and overall money won. I am really happy with how it turned out. I would have won a lot more at the tables and at rakeback, if I hadn't played 10NL for 2 weeks. I hope in 2014 I will keep up the big volume and also play a way better game.

Final results after week 10 of my 10.000$ in 10 weeks challenge

Happy New Year everybody!!!

So yesterday was the last day of my 10.000$ in 10 weeks without rakeback challenge. I ended up failing both my poker challenge and also my fitness challenge: I lost 5kg's of fat by the 9th week, but during Christmas I gained 2kg back so now I am at 74kg's... From now on I know that I have to avoid carbohidrates even for 1 day.

Poker wise, I would have completed my challenge if I hadn't dropped to 10NL for 2 weeks and than lost 1 more week re-adjusting my game, so I could win again at 25-50NL.... 

With tournament winnings the total profit is 8.681$(cash)+ 265(mtt/sng)= 8.946$.

With fpp value from the rakeback and money received from my 10NL propbet, I would have a total of: 8946+2925(propbet)+1993(fpp value)=13.864$  

Tomorrow I will make a post with the results from december and after that the results from 2013. Good luck to everybody and have a wonderfull 2014!!!
