Congratulations to Gerovit on the birth of his son! Wish you good luck man, and remember babies are never too young to learn poker
So nice of you to mention my son in your blog 
Thank you very much Matt!
Than again you'll be able to say: Ehh you kids i posted in my blog when 5 times back to back WSOP champion was born ♦
As for Ongame you are right rake is to high, only if you have nice 60%+ deal that could be profitable because i assume competition is softer due to rake.
I started playing HUsng's recently so i am exploring all networks, any feedback from 888 would be appreciated.
I won't be going there for a while but I'll report back to my blog of course.
Week 7 of the year and here's the giraffe so far. I didn't make a fortune, of course, but I consider this a success. Most games are at the $3.30s and I ran extremely bad at the $5.50s (EV difference of about $60). I'm also happy about beating the huge ROI-Killer: ongame's rake.
!!!oh the swings!!!
For anyone wondering why I am measuring success by the $$, I guess it's because, ultimately, I want to improve my $/hr to the best I can. As for other types of success: I've obviously learned a lot and most importantly still keen to learn much more. And I've also kept mindset at the forefront of my priorities for a while now and so far it's been doing wonders. Tiltless poker coming soon.
See you guys in a couple of days.
The intended break is going to last longer than expected 
Got really sick yesterday and although I'm getting better still feel like shit. I really hope I'll be good tomorrow.

Ah damn man, seems everyone is sick/getting sick. Get well soon!
@Graph, it looks like a typical Ongame graph, with the swings and all, but you managed to profit, so GJ!

Yeah 
thanks
Hello! as I posted recently in this thread I was feeling sick. I had a bad fever, stomach pain, headaches, loss of appetite and a temperature alternating between high and low like fucking mad. However I woke up this morning at about 5.05am and I thought to myself "Oh I must be better! I woke up so early because I spent all day yesterday relaxing and I slept well now!" So, eager to start the day I started making my way towards the bathroom where all of a sudden I became very light-headed and grabbed hold of a piece of furniture to maintain balance. I thought this was because I stood up from my bed too quickly so after a few seconds I tried to walk again. It happened again and again however, and everytime I grabbed onto something until I somehow lost consciousness, fell and hit the back of my head against the wall.
As I laid there motionless for a while, a faint thought out of nowhere said that if I stay here it will be very, very bad. My eyes opened wide, I collected all the strength I could and hurried towards my parents' bedroom where I collapsed on their bed. They took care of the rest.
So we spent all day at the hospital and it turns out that some crappy virus caused my blood pressure to diminish which equals losing balance and/or losing consciousness. Had I not listened to the thought that woke me up, my blood pressure would have continued to decrease while depriving my brain of enough oxygen and blood! Scary shit!
I feel ok now after some treatments. Just a bit shocked. And tired.
Oh how fragile our lives are.
Thanks for reading
And here's an appropriate song to finish off the story
Wow dude that's some extreme sh!t. And very interesting with the thought that came out of nowhere! I really think these kind of things are not random and you really are meant to have an impact.
So, ship it (life)!

Thanks Roo so nice to hear from you!
I got back to the tables today! ♦ And was greeted with a frustrating day 
I want to reach and stay at the $10 level but I'm at a loss at the $5s! Now these aren't hard to beat at all - it's practically the same level but for some reason the cards just aren't getting on my good side. This is the graph for $5 HU sng exclusively
ughhhh!
On the plus side, I really believe that the mental game is really getting in shape I plan on waking up early tomorrow and have a very productive day.
March Poker Goals:
[ ] Focus! I have no idea how I'll measure this but it should be written down
[ ] Get platinum status I don't like the platinum avatar but this gives me something to aim at in regards to volume
[ ] Watch 1 training/instructional video everyday
[ ] Read, and study theory I'm going to finish off some stuff which I wanted to do in february but didn't get to because I was unwell
[ ] Bother Wasy and Chenny with a bunch of (almost) daily hands for evaluation starting now! ♠_evil:
Tough luck with your health, man, glad you're better now.
This is just a minor glitch in your progress, just keep putting in volume and it will come to where it's supposed to be.
I fucking lost it today. Nothing held. Kings, Queens, trips, nothing. Bankroll back to 250. I don't think I'll make it to Platinum this month. I thought it was 1500 SP but it's actually 2500. Still feel like trying though.
I feel stuck at this limit. ♠_confused:
Oh well, at least March is still young.
Goodbye my dear profit. It was fun knowing you. I hope you're in good hands now. EDIT: The graph wasn't accurate actually. I forgot to put in the proper BIs because it was wrong by default. (Everest HH doesn't import properly to HM). Actual graph isn't too bad, but the following still stands.
I don't know what to say, do or think. I've almost lost all that I made in the last 3 weeks. These cards really are cruel. I need to recollect my psyche, rebuild and get the fuck out of Everest.
BR: 234
Hey, i've sent you a friend request on here, looking at moving to HU SnGs and want to ask some people some questions ♦
Hey Wriggers, apologies for the late reply. I haven't been active in the forum these last two weeks and I haven't played poker either.
I'm extremely busy with my last two/three months at uni so I need to focus on that atm If there's anything I can help you with go ahead and ask though.
Why is it there are rewards for being active whenever I find myself being extremely busy?
