I haven't played almost at all this year due to the January exam period in university. Sorry for being offline on Skype, I really had to study quite a lot during the last few days. I still have some work to do, but next week it's hopefully over and I'll be donating chips at FL SH tables again.
Cheers!

hey dude, i've hardly played this year myself. when your schedule opens up drop me a line and we'll set something up.
Ok, the exam period is (hopefully!) over, now it's time to get back into poker again.
I have some targets:
- No look at my graph. Ever. It just attaches me to the past
- Start every (!) morning with exercise
- Put some volume in
I'm doing great in FL HU, taking money from the fish and running good against lots of unknown Ongame regulars before I quit them 
Gl Tavi, you must be good player, btw do you play only Ongame, no Stars or other rooms?
Gl!

Didn't play much in January because of the exam period, but managed to put in 8k hands and won ~$1k. Swang a lot and also bought lots of stuff IRL, but overall a very nice month again. I managed to stay in 5/10 and gain some extra confidence.
I can sometimes see some really fishy tables running at 10/20. Keeps me motivated 
Gl and enjoy the weather! (currently -18 degrees here and getting colder)

I misread the action (one 6max + one HU is too many tables) and I thought that he had donked the flop. Had some reads on him and his flop donk would be just air almost always here. His turn 3bet was quite convincing though... Time for plan B: get there.
Siddhartha never listened to Kamaswami's worries and Kamaswami had many worries. Whether there was a business-deal going on which was in danger of failing, or whether a shipment of merchandise seemed to have been lost, or a debtor seemed to be unable to pay, Kamaswami could never convince his partner that it would be useful to utter a few words of worry or anger, to have wrinkles on the forehead, to sleep badly.
- Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha
Sounds like the story of me and my poker student a lot.
