Quick review from yesterday

Alright! As I said below next post coming more poker posts.

Had decent volume-rich yesterday, unfortunately losing by my own mistakes BUT I will learn from them.
One of my January goals was work on "Mental game of poker", Ive been doing some work with excel and making notes after every session which means I will look my losing pots and calculate how much I spewed.

Example from yesterday:

Most of hands came from 200NL, graph looks like "omg, im running superbad! look at that ev!" right?

But after looking HH´s I will show how easy is to spew 400$ in one hand. Overall I spewed more than 837$..:(

Poker Stars $1/$2 No Limit Hold'em $0.40 Ante - 8 players

BB: $500.00
UTG: $497.60
UTG+1: $409.99
MP1: $421.05
Hero (MP2): $400.00
CO: $524.10
BTN: $506.62
SB: $511.26

Pre Flop: ($6.20) Hero is MP2 with J J
2 folds, MP1 raises to $6, Hero raises to $20, 4 folds, MP1 raises to $420.65 all in, Hero calls $379.60 all in

Flop: ($805.40) A T Q (2 players - 2 are all in)

Turn: ($805.40) 9 (2 players - 2 are all in)

River: ($805.40) 3 (2 players - 2 are all in)

Final Pot: $805.40
MP1 shows A Q (two pair, Aces and Queens)
Hero shows J J (a pair of Jacks)
MP1 wins $802.60
(Rake: $2.80)

At this point, results doesn´t really matte what he had. Villain was running 22/18/ 30hands, altought 1tabler and did some few fishy moves but still, how tard can I be by calling of 200bbs w/ JJ.

From yesterday I will look thouse spewed hands, note them and adding to my excel table. Playing currently 100NL until Im start making good play and less spewaments.

Silmilar posts will come more and more. Oh wait, got quick photo for you grinders!

Cheers, and good luck at the tables!

The past, now and the future vol.2

 In my previous post I didn't mention that English is not my strongest side.

I will make as soon as possible some new pictures from my house, until then going to talk little bit about the Islands what did I visited last month.

Chiang Mai to Hat Yai, Hat Yai to Pak barra, Pak barra to Koh Lipe. 

Chill at the beach

Few pictures from the bungalow where I stayed 3nights.

Can obviously grind there aswell!

After Koh Lipe back to Hat Yai airport, flight to Bangkok, Bangkok to Ekkamai station, Ekkamai to Rayong. All this took 15hours, and still didn't get there where I wanted. It was midnight and I was lucky that I asked some info from local farang. He told me that you'll need to walk 50m and you'll see the hotel!

Hotel, 1night in aircon room was 400baht, which is 9€ (tho fan-room was 300baht)

 Bed wasn't that great, BUT..

You can always relax and watch some TV!

Next morning I arrived to Ko Samet

The island was mostly full of tourist stuff, expensive as always. The beach was nice :)




2nights there and finally before New year back to home! Wasn't good start of the year because made some problems with my girl, that happens and lots of other interesting info from her which made my work little bit harder than I was expecting. You can't grind when you're trying to fix your IRL problems, or having some issues outside from poker.

I setted decent goals for the year/month and after thouse problems was really hard to start working, studying. So that's why I said before that having some hard times in real life and online.

Luckily im almost in the pace of my goals right now and everything going better than before. Writing down my monthly goals down below:


[ ] 200-250 hours
[ ] Down to B-game
[ ] Back to 200NL
[ ] 2h+ handreview per week (4x month)
[ ] 10-12 pokkerivideos (3x week)
[ ] 100,000+ hands
[ ] 45k vpps (35-40k would be also good)
[ ] Write down the financial outlay
[ ] View my process
[ ] Weekly plans & goals
[ ] 20hours of mindset videos (5h per week)
[ ] Reserved time 1-5h day (mostly 1-2h)
[ ] Communication
[ ] Quit smoking
[ ] Mental game of poker (read again and conspect)

I'm looking them right now and can say atleast 75% going right was as I wanted.

Alright, that's enought with this post. On my next post I will try to write more about poker and post some interesting hands from this month.

Cheers, and good luck with your plans and goals!

The past, now and the future vol.1

Hi guys!

It's been a while since my last update. A lot of things have happened, so I have a lot to write.

Since I moved into Chiang Mai (Thailand), it's being hard/hardest times for me. First of all writing little bit about poker. Long story short, been running awful, playing awful and the results are awful. Basically for me 3 months breakeven.

Got bored by playing fullring, so I decided to play 200NL 6m zoom. Watched videos, studied every day. Obiously for fullring player thouse swings are crazy, and my mindset wasn't ready for thouse ones.

Definitely some hands are missing + one day was FR200zoom running so.. results are down here:

200NL Zoom 6m

After this I moved back and back between Zoom and FR, my head was going to explode because I really didn't know what to play. I really love agression and Zoom, but mindset cannot handle with thouse swings.

Anyways, for confidence I played FR and time to time Zoom 100NL 6m. Here's Zoom 6m 100NL graph

100NL Zoom 6m

Moving on, writing little bit about my life and what's been happening past 3 months.

Moved into Chiang Mai at the beginning of October. At first I didn't know anything about Chiang Mai, all I knew was that everyone told me that this place is perfect for pokerplayer. So we arrived to CM, and moved into Smith Residence which is located 1-2min from the gate (city central). Location was really good, really didn't need to rent a bike which I did. Few times out, meeting with Chiang Mai grinders and moved at the end of October into grindershouse.

How my setup looked like:

House was awesome! Everything brand new, everything! Location little bit outside from city, which is good for grinder like me. Maybe few weeks later my friend from Estonia named "RudiTurbo" arrived to Chiang Mai for visiting me and my friend. Before going to Bangkok we went out with bunch of people/grinders. Good times, until my heart saw amazing beautiful girl and I was fistbump in love... Last time it happend 7-8years ago.

Anyways, obiously being with girl took my time and had to say "good bye my sweet volume". I didn't put much volume after meeting/being with girl. We had so much great time together, and still have ;) I will post some pictures here down below:

Outside form Chiang Mai city.

Loy Krathong festival.

Visiting Hua Hin, and had some relaxing time.

Before Hua Hin, we visited my friends from Estonia in Bangkok. Had good times, but still unhappy with Bangkok and proud of myself that im living in Chiang Mai.

Before Im talkig about other Island trips I wanted to write about what happend before that. Few days before meeting with sister and parents we went out with girl to market place. Lots of food, clothes and everything cheap. Was asking from girl about one husky dog week before we went to market and when we get there I saw they are selling ones. Was soo stoked and didnt believe myself of buying one.. which I did. Went back to home and suprise suprise, house rules were saying "no pets", unfortunately. So we had to move out as soon as possible, if I wanted to keep the dog. Thank god I got amazing gf who were searching in her home area some houses for rent and found one. Next day we went to look and took it. The price of house is insane - 230€month. 3bedroom, kitchen, BBQ area, parking area (closed with gate), 2 toilets, living room, + furniture included. Still very happy about this one, I will post pictures in my next post.

Trying to do it after few hours or later today. About my blog and blogpost: I will keep this blog alive, cannot happen like it happen before. I will update it weekly, maybe even more!
