Lemon detox is potentially dangerous too since some of the stuff you are supposed to take is basically inducing diarrhoea.

Thanks for the feedback guys, I still don't get some of the warnings, how can lemon + water + maple juice be dangerous? I will drink that "lemonade" and eat fruits for few days, I thought it can just be good for my organism, am I missing something?

I thought part of that whole Master Cleanse was taking some sort of laxative herbs as well as the lemonade? I don't know too much about it, but imagine the combination of diarrhea (which I think you can also sometimes get just doing lemon+maple+water) mixed with essentially starving yourself can make it easy to dehydrate as well (which sounds ironic since you're just drinking lemonade all day but it can happen)
I think if you were to eat fruits as well it'd be fine though I'd think the fruits would be doing better things for your health than the lemonade.

Thanks metza, yeah I will definetely eat some fruits with that freakin lemonade, oh I'm already starving either way, probably I'll just eat a steak im the evening ♦
Detoxification week so far:
Monday
Went to the shops to buy that maple juice and some peppers required for the lemonade, came home to test how awful was it, and shocking news; it was pretty tasty.:) So, yeah, I said to my wife that I'm so into this program and that I'll succeed not eating regular meals and drinking unhealthy bevarages over the week. Later on, it's afternoom, I'm still pretty self- confident, drinking 3rd or 4th glass of devil's lemonade. 8PM- needed to go to the town to pick something up, driving back home and starving. Thinking of all kinds of food you can imagine, fighting with myself, and finally stopped with car in some Chinese restaurant taking 3 dishes to go, came back home put it on table, my wife is laughing like a maniac, and we have a nice Chinese dinner. However, I drank the lemonade afterwards; maybe it helps who knows.
Tuesday
Morning: I'm tellong my wife, OK yesterday was a fail, but today I'm stronger I can do it. Afternoon, still drinking lemonade. Evening, my best man comes with his girl to visit us. Well, it would not be nice to not eat something with them, so we ate some persutto cheese ham sausages, drank some wine... Later on we watched Bayern- Real, switched to Jack- coke, Real crushed Bayern, time to celebrate bcs we are true Real's fans, and yeh, we drank a bottle or two, bastard went home about 3AM. Wanted to drink the lemonade after all that, but my wife told me that it's not the best idea.
Wednesday
Oh my head is going to explode, why I did it yesterday? Calling Ciro, my best man, to tell him to gtfo, that bastard is guilty I woud never do that if he didn't come. Anyways, today I'll try again, drinking lemonade from the morning (good for hangover btw) doimg some random things and obligations, went to Slovenia to switch to summer tires, going back home, receiving a call from one of my best friends that he and his girl saw a doctor and that his girl is pregnant- confirmed. So to come straight to the bar from Slovenia. Now I'm thinking, how? How today, I'm still having a hangover, no not possible.. Coming to the bar, yeh, couldn't do anything but drink whiskey with him all evening, I brought him home in half- dead mode, his girl- future wife, congrats us both.. Came home, my wife congrats me with one welcome kick.. No lemonade for me I guess this evening. Oh btw. i ate some sandwiches, you cant drink on empty stomac obv. it wouldn't be clever.
Today
Freaking May 1st, we visited my wife's parrents, her dad waiting for me to make a BBQ together, how in the world I can let him down, so yeh, we made BBQ, ate like we were supposed to on a hooliday, drank some wine, not too much bcs I'm already half dead from yesterday (didn't drink two nights in a row for some long time already- if we don't cound my son's birth when I was drinking 6 days). All in all, we were back home about 9PM, and I drank the lemonade like a baws.
Who knows, maybe next week? Maybe even tomorrow I succeed starting something, will let you know..
Sincerely,
Frankie the detox machine
Played 3k hands today. Plan was to play 4-5k, but I have some small fever, which caused me losing concentration already after 2k hands, which will be visible on the graph also- started losing non showdowns, so last 1k hands is one big b/e, however pretty satisfied with results, good to know that I can pull off a winning session even when I'm not playing my A game.
Detoxification fail again today, I mean my mom always says to me that I need to eat a lot when I'm sick, so..

Not sure if I should take this personally?

Fair point, I kept being very very busy which took me of the forum for some time, but I'll make it up 
Played some hyper husngs- mostly $15's about 2k games, was pretty satisfied with both roi and my play, however, I also found out how boring it can be to grind exclusively these ♦ Also, I miss my VIP status and points too much when playing just these, so I'm thinking of some alternative. That doesn't mean that I won't play hyper husngs at all, just I think I cant play exclusively them. Also, with all these MTT results around us I also got MTTmania myslef, so am thinking to try them out more seriously too, so yeah, I am pretty busy and all around the place with my poker plans which discouraged me from updating. I expect to start some serious grind somewhere next week, so more updates then.
Btw thanks holmeboy for bumping the blog
From Zagreb with love 
Frankie
EDIT: also I'll be eligible to participate in our community challenge once when I start MTTing which si also cool 
You can be Pleno v2; from dominating cash to dominating MTTs, but with even bigger scores! 
Thought I could do a little update here
Well, I went through a lot of life and poker decisions recently tbh, been pretty busy so didn't update those here, I tried out hyper husngs, found them too boring and can't stand playing hypers if I don't receive tons of VPP's, so I tried out 6max hypers which worked pretty well for me so I sticked to them for last week or so, I am winning nicely at 15's, probably due to some hyper HU experience, swings are pretty brutal though, espesh if you run shitty at HU it could be painful. However, I'm making tons of VPP's playing 12-14 tables, so I decided to keep going with them for some time. BAsically, I hope I can climb up to 30's in some time, if I succeed I will stick to them if not I'll be back to cash. Simple logic- if I can beat 30's I can think of SNE in 2015 which would be great, if not, I'll just go back to NL50-100 zoom and earn some monthly $$ as before.
That's all for now, maybe I will post some sick rollercoster graph once I get some better sample on 15's.

I never found motivation to grind these last 20k hands at 25, if you guys agree I would like to end it based on the results I got over these 70-80k hands which is 9.23 bb/100, so whoever was with the closest guess pls let me know and I'll ship the $$.
If that's cool with u guys.
Cheers,
Fran

80k is a good enough volume to count it in.
Some summary for NL25 players would be cool. Like how does the player pool behaves or how some tricky spot is best to play.
Overal stats, total graph with all the lines.
GL@SNG's
I already uploaded that graph with 75k hands, but ok I guess I should upload it also now in the end:
Spoiler
SB: -19.95 bb/100
MP: 9.63 bb/100
EP: 18.75 bb/100
CO: 18.58 bb/100
BTN: 46.94 bb/100
BB: -20.46 bb/100
total: 9.23 bb/100
I am pretty satisfied with winrates from the blinds losing just ~20bb/100 is pretty good imo for zoom games, in the beginning I had even better results from SB but I tightened up a bit later on because I adapted to NL25 regs who play pretty nitty, I concluded that I was losing too much by barreling them too often in 3bet pots from SB, so i was quitting more often on turn and/or river which resulted in equalizing SB and BB winrate. However, it's still pretty decent imo. This with SB could sound contradictory; I tightened up and received worse winrate, but the truth is that I ran pretty well in the beginning in these spots I should be losing more in SB 3bet pots, so actually I made my winrate EV better with tightening up. Sorry if I complicated it now a bit lol. I hope you get what I'm saying.
Cheers,
Fran
