Quit my sessions rather early today, began with last night i think where i spewed/lost 3 stacks in a few minutes on nl200. Didn't play focused at all today, only good thing is that i still managed to get a little bit of volume in. Halfway the VPP's i still needed at the beginning of november for SN, so a little bit ahead of pace.
Spewed in so many spots today and missed so many, still managed to book a small win cuz fish spewed even harder. If i bring this C-Game of mine to the tables on NL200z i'm getting crushed no matter what. So i played some NL100 to get a little bit of volume in and recovered those 600$ i lost tonight.
Body feels rather depleted right now and they're going fix some leakage here tomorrow at 8 o clock, i'm normally getting up at 10 nowadays 
Rollercoaster of emotions in this hand, dude played 80/35 or something like that.
Before seeing his hand pre i'm like YAY QQ vs a retard: then d'oh when he turns them over. Then YAY IN YOUR FACE on the flop.
Then on the Turn OMFG
River i yay'd some more.

Oh i haven't updated for almost a week :o, i thought it was only 3-4 days lolz. Didn't play in the weekend really was with my GF, so not much updates about those days 
November was one of my best months ever, but still not happy, every NL200 shot failed and volume actually sucked because of a lot of days not being able to play. The days i did play in the end were quite crushing, couple of ~1k days, so quite happy with those. Boosted my winrate quite a bit :).
December tho, started out freaking terrible, yesterday i had my worst day for the entire year i think lolz. Was at -1.2k for a while, Took another NL200 shot, which backfired again, dropped 3BI in 5min :/ So went back to NL100 and dropped some more lol. Went to soccer practice to refresh my mind and afterwards grinded a bit of $$ back, cuz i didnt want to have a -1k in my stats in HEM ♦. I was very close around 12PM, when i checked tonight at 00:03 i saw i lost 998$ yesterday, so no -1k WOOHOO.
Today i grinded some more, was 600$ up at a time, but some silly setups and suckouts made it drop down to 200 again, feels quite shit and need to refocus a bit. Just got out of the gym so gonna fire up another session later on.
VPP wise i'll be happy when the grind is over, Already have 5.4k this month and need another 7.5k to reach SN. Still got 500$ in stellar rewards and almost 250k FPP when i'm finished, so that's a very nice christmas gift

pfff, silly game.
Still, it seems a solid month. Reads like this are tempting me back to the grind (micro maniac.)
Go SuperNova! What ya gunna buy with the FPP's?
MD
Something like this i hope:
Or atleast the license for it 
Played a short HU vs a perceived fish on NL50, I played like a complete moron overbetting in certain spots that didn't made sense at all. But the fish believed me and i stacked him fairly easy.
The rakeback i'm getting is kinda nice, but playing 5k hands a day is tiring
Ya! so the FPP's might get you the exhaust ... maybe.
Hope to get on two wheels over 2015 too, more of a tourer guy though - something to eat up the miles without breaking your back.
Yea i still have to wait till June tho, in the Netherlands they have silly system regarding motorbikes. You have to be a certain age to ride certain bikes, in june i turn 24 and then i'm allowed to ride the heaviest class, otherwise i still have to wait 2 years. My GF already has one standing at home, but she doesn't have her license yet haha.
Pokerwise today i wasn't able to play too much, my hud doesn't work for some reason on zoom after that serverrestart this morning. I tried resetting my laptop a few times, didn't work either. So i tried some other sites, won a bit. But also lost quite a bit: someone in this freaking house decided it was fun to turn off the internet, letting me D/C from all my tables, missed 50$ directly from the pots i was in i think and potentially alot more because i had such nice seats.
Just played the 600$ ME on 888, was shortstacked quickly due to some shitty coolers and went out with AQo vs Kqo, 3bet it vs an aggressive guy, Flop came Q83r cbet/call, turn K bye potential 40bb stack
Oh well it was fun while it lasted, the biggest tourney i played before was an occasional sunday million ♦
God i feel sick, caught a small fever of my GF. Going out at friday till 7 in the morning, another B'day at saturday and playing soccer with 2degrees on sunday wouldn't help either i'd guess. ♦
Gonna hit the gym in a few min and see how i'll do.
Played a nice session tho last night after the 600ME, the pool was so freaking weak and i was almost playing ABC poker and won 5BI :),
Had a fish on the side on NL50HU, who was passive as fuck and betsizing tells all over, so rather easy to play. Tho when he got down to ~50bb he just shoved any 2, he kept winning those
longest HU match ive played, lolrake 2BI.
Only need 6k VPP for SN
God this month is a disaster, running so bad against everyone it's not fun anymore. Dropped a few tables to focus more on the actual game, which is going good untill some retards plan to suck out on me every darn time. Had some action against a NL200 whale, who happened to shove from time to time with random crap, called him 3 times, lost all 3 and he ran -.-'. Then some fish nl100 happened to plan the same.
Tomorrow's a new day, new day to crush the tables
Only 1.9k vpp for sn SN
Why is lady variance such a bitch? How shitty my day was yesterday, worst day ever. Now i'm grinding money like it's stealing candy from a dead baby.
In other news i made Supernova today ♦ 
, now i feel empty without a goal lol.
Haha yea that was one of the first things that also came across my mind. Bit hard tho with 14 days left.
earning 3.7K by just clicking a few cashbonusses.
Congrats on Supernova.

Nice!!! ♠_thumbsup:
TY TY,
Thinking of buying an XboxONE, just for the Masterchief collection, seeing footage of the games brings back so many memories. And being able to play Halo2 online again would be so much fun. Tho i think the entire community got killed due to other franchises and games like COD or LOL taking away potential players. So i wonder if the matchmaking still brings the same vibe as it did back in the day. Getting to lvl 50, or close to it, really ment something in halo2. Nowadays in halo4 or other games like COD, getting prestige is just a boring grind and means exactly nothing. Or they've changed stuff lately, i don't know, last time i actually played online is already a year ago.

DEAR DIARY,
Today i didn't play alot, 100 hands max. I'm sorry for this diary, but i was looking for new sites to play on. I Noticed i had an old account on PKR: Last login dec 2007 LOL. didn't even know i played back then. I probably didn't either cuz wasn't even 18 in that year.
Looked up some other sites to see the traffic, tried to get a FDB on unibet of 500, didn't get it, cuz i live in the netherlands, fuuuuuuuuu.
Then i installed bodog, allows US-players, so i suspected it would be fishy as hell, traffic seemed ok. again: not available in your country fuuuuuuuuuuu.
Played some hands on my old WPT-account, won a few dollars and quit the day.
I'm such a pro player sometimes.

Won ~2BI, lost 1 in the end where i 'spewed' myself, this supernit 3bet me small BvB, so i peel, flop comes 67T, which smashes my range compared to his, so i turn my bottom pair in a bluff, turn is an 8 i believe and river is a 9 which also completes a fd. So perfect board imo for me to bluff, except villain happens to have TT.
At least you guys got to split the pot right? 
cool blog man, nice to see some 100NL hands passing by for my motivation- keep it goingg ♠_drink:
2curacao, uhm that hand is already a 'long' time ago, but as i recall i typed some of the hand wrong and still lost it on a 4straight board or so.
Had a nice weekend with my gf, but got sick after drinking 5 beers on a b-day saturday, so my sunday was completely fucked. Normally i'm able to drink alot more without getting hungover so probably something else that made me sick...
Pokerwise i'm thinking of some new goals, probably going to do some $$-to 10k challenge.
Currently i'm playing alot less tables and focus on note taking, something i didn't do alot before. Now i do it more i think it's such a crucial skill. Having a hud saying someone cbets 80percent and knowing what that means ofc is important too. But people have so many tells in their timing/betsizing that doesn't show up in your hud. Or notecaddy should be able to show this. Still trying to figure out notecaddy better, i really need better popups that tell me more specific stats in certain situations like certain board textures etc.
Gonna watch a video about some notetaking later this evening, my notes are still rather shitty i think ;p
disclaimer; my shiftbutton isn't working so excuse me for typo's.
These shiftbuttons that don't work are a pain in the arse, my warranty also just expired so it'll cost me atleast 50 bucks to get repaired... probably a little wire that got loose on the motherboard if i read other forums correctly. might take my pc there aswell, the ssd in that one broke down last year and then i bought this laptop. should cost me about 200-250 altogether.
played somewhat casual yesterday, 3 tables max and won 4,5bi while watching some short 'n easy strat videos.
Seems i haven't updated for a while, haven't played poker i think after last update i think. With christmas and NYE it was busy enough
Played my first sessions of the year, won 5BI. Mostly due to a 375bb pot in my very last hand vs a fish and i had 2nd set in a min4bet pot.
I've been thinking about how to track my progress 'n goals, first i though of a volume goal in hands, but since i'm playing regular tables more now it's not like i'm raking in ~900h/hr anymore. So i'll probably try an hours-played goal instead. Then the problem is, how many hours is decent to go for ♦. I still have holidays so i got alot of spare time, so 6+ per day and some off days should be ok. I'll just say 120hr is my goal this month, seems reasonable to me. With regular tables i think i'll get 50-60k hands that way if i 4-6table them.
Volume Progress [3/120]
