At Sunday we are going to Panama. Will make some photos there and make a trip report. Latelly a lot of changes. Also I know that some readers was waiting for chicks photos, they are on blog at: www.ilidek.com
I am ill. At least I'll catch up my sleep deficit because I am sleeping like 18-20h each day.
I am back at Medelline. Panama was fine but I couldn't wait for grind. Went back from airport, ate something and start grinding. Unfortunatelly downswing didn't pass and I have to grind it. I've faced many donks on the River and many River raises but there is no better time to improve my vbeting River and playing vs River donkbets especially becuase I have a phobia that it will happen over and over again still today in 450 hands had 7 raises on the River and 5 donks.
Yesterday was pretty hardcore day, first I've been attacked with machete latter on I came back and lost 700$ in 150 hands. Today was grinding pretty hard and I am resting. Tomorrow will write longer post becasue I have some reflections, esp after this machete attack...
@pufarine
I used to live in Warsaw. Right now I am living in Medelline in Columbia.
Ok today was pretty hardcore day. I didn't make a session review for a long time. As a punishment I did last 2.5h month in a row. It was like 500 hands still 150 hands left for more precise analysis. It's boring as fuck but when you don't do something important for long time it's time that you have to pay.... I probably won't skip session review ever again after next two days...
In 25 min I have to turn off my PC so I'll write this post tomorrow. Don't want to do a BS job and will enclose some photos from Panama.
Downswing latter part.... Lost cash again.... on nl600 my keyboard is fucked up and skrill is blocked and it will be hard to withdraw money for living costs.... downswing GTFO...... find other friends....
This is how December looks like:

I was never thinking that I'll write it but I am very glad that I have this downswing. I've learned few important things because of it. Improved some others and learned how to calm myself. Have a lot of refelctions because had 3 sleepless nights but had 'aha' moment once again. More life wise than poker wise but it still count. Will write a longer post probably at Monday because a lot of things changed. Anyway even after this session I was feeling great after 10 min.
All is okey'ish keep doing my job. I have to force myself to make one whole day completely free of work. I am working too much and it decrease learning curve. Also I am not a paranoic not crazy, I realy had a dowswning. Kind of relieve to see this:

Year 2014 was fu.king awesome! I really rocked. I've learned a lot I am writing up a summary to track how I am changing over the years. Those are most important things I've learned this year:

I like what you've put on your site because I agree with it especially the bit about expectations.

And just a quick tip: as I play NL10 too, against some reg 3betting a lot against steals, you can try to 4 bet something like 2.3x or 2.4x and see how they react. For me it works extremely well. I believe it increases my winrate A LOT. Take it or leave it, I just wanted to help.
(Im suscribing)
PKR has NL4
@ Mikus8
Glad you like it. How is it going in poker?
@ iSoOwnYou
I have Gold VIP so I have two tockens and sometimes I confuse them. I use wrong tockens three times and they didi block it.
@confidant91
I am glad you like the post. What I've got from Fengshui:
1) What is outside is inside. If you have mess at your room / working space it's much easier to be distracted / overwhelmed and feel like it's way tooo much things for you
2) The less distractions you have, the more energy you have
3) The less things you have the more in hunting mode you are. The more things you are the more you try to 'keep' and you care more about keeping you status than improving.
4) Less is more.
Hope it helped you. Get luck in 2015 ![]()
@hardlife66
Yeah those expectations were killing me but I am working on it. About donkbet River I've meant that I was PreFlop Aggressor, I cbet the Turn and villain lead into me on the River. Gl at the tables!
I am packing for a flight in the airplane will probably sum up 2014.
