knelse out 
Well, not tomorrow, nvm.
I'm going to win 10k this month by playing at nl200 or below. My ultimate goal is win 15k 'cause I'll be playing nl400 already somewhere in the middle of the challenge.
Updates each day I've played. Stay tuned
It doesn't show villains hand though, what was it? 23, 33?
Nice blog and congratulations on your progress! Whenever you're in Brazil, let me know, I live in the capital Brasilia, and I'll be happy to help you out with anything that I can when you're around. Brazil is pretty awesome to be honest, so I think you made a pretty nice choice 
BTW, I've been considering making the move from 6-max to HU play... I don't really have much experience playing HU, and was wondering if you think the higher winrate makes up for the excessive blinds and less tables played. Do you think its possible to achieve higher $$/h?
Hey and welcome in the blog
It's one of the sites that doesn't show villain's hand when he loses, so I can't tell for sure. Could be both 32 and 33.
Thanks for the offer! I'll probably be somewhere around Rio 'cause I have a lot of friends and just friendly contacts there, but it's still very nice of you. Also, I do like how friendly people's appearance is (even when they're just passing you in the street), so different from here. I happened to live for some time in London, Minsk, couple of Israel cities (Haifa, Tel-Aviv and Carmiel to name the longest periods) and a lot of cities in Russia, but never was I feeling so much at home as in Brasil
In general it's difficult to say what's better. For HU there're 2 common ways of going: bumhunting (playing only weaker guys => higher winrate, lower action, kinda fast to reach top at around nl600-1k with almost nothing going on above - like 1 villain a month or worse, but it's relatively easy to learn and start making money) and "normal" way of playing everyone (lower winrate, a lot more action, would be hard all the time, but progression won't stop at nl1k if you're good enough).
However, I do think that sticking to your main discipline results in the biggest income in terms of $/h and stake progression, unless you're really stuck for a long time or desperately want to switch because you cannot find any joy in what you're playing now.
Hello everyone.

I once wished for 1k months too - you just need to work hard, and that month (and then week, day, hour or whatever you want) would come
