Never enough said, it is very important to maintain your mindset! Articles and vids in the psychology category help a lot, not just in the dark down times.
Choose 1 article or vid for every day, there are plenty of them, and a lot with high quality content! ♠_wink:

Wish you good rivers and tons of similar GREEN weeks!

Well that would be great. However it is hard to find the free time for it

There could be only 2 reasons for it imo:

1. Reaching your poker goals isn't really important to you
2. You don't make plans for the next day, for the next week, month neither for the whole year

With good plans (=good time management), you will always have enough time for what's important to you!

Start it here!

This is probably the worst way to bubble a tournament and especially a splash tournament

It seems easy but it is hard to implement in real life. I do not want to focus only on poker. I want to balance my social and work life with poker.

Making good plans for the next days, weeks, months isn't just about poker. An effective time management can ensure a more balanced life imo

This week was a hard week for me. I had a lot of work and also spent time with friends meaning there was not much time for poker. Anyway here are my results for last week:

Week 6

Number of played MTTs: 24
Total buyin: 93,5 USD
Winnings: 107,36 USD
Profit: 13,86 USD
Starting BR: 1000
Current BR: 973,79
Target: 6000

A hungarian blog? Very nice, my parents come from Budapest, too. I´m a German of hungarian origin.

Sok sikert ès sok szerencsèt kivànok! Rendseressen ès szivessen fogok itten olvasni! ♠_thumbsup:

(sry, even though beeing native Hungarian, my spelling is not always great)

Szia Primrose! Nagyon örülök, hogy megtaláltad a blogom

It is always nice to meet fellow Hungarian speaking people
(your Hungarian is very good )

Today I found out that in the beginning of March I will go to UK on a 2,5-3 months long deputation. This will definitely affect my poker life as I probably will not be able to play as much as now or play at all

I hope for the best and I hope to continue my BR challenge even if in a slower rate.

Did not play much this week. I was sick this weekend and also had a lot of work related tasks to do. As the things are standing right now it seems I will not play next week at all and will play already from UK next time.

My tournaments this week:

Week 7

Number of played MTTs: 10
Total buyin: 49,5 USD
Winnings: 9,84 USD
Profit: -39,66 USD
Starting BR: 1000
Current BR: 934,13
Target: 6000

Get well soon!

And keep us updated from UK too! ♠_biggrin:

Just to confirm: I was on holiday this week and I will not play next week either. See you later

Still on holiday. I am getting used to UK life. I will definetely play something next week.

It is not that easy as it sounds

Okay. I was back to the tables after two weeks of holiday. For the first time I played from UK from my laptop. I very much miss my setup in Budapest (a decent computer with two 32 inch monitors). The resolution in my laptop is crap and it makes multitabling harder.

But! Regardless my difficulties with poker I do enjoy the life here (obviously not the wether though because it is always either raining or about to rain). My company is paying my stay in a hotel. My room gets cleaned every day and I may use the pool, steam room, sauna, jacuzzi free of charge, which you can bet I do everyday The job is not as shitty as I expeted it to be even if we do have quite a lot of difficulties. The office is one of the best buildings I ever seen and it is in a 30 minutes walk through a park which is also nice. To make the long story short I am coping well around here.

Now back to the topic!

Here are the tournaments I played this week:

And here is the BR challenge summary:

Week 8

Number of played MTTs: 16
Total buyin: 47,85 USD
Winnings: 36,11 USD
Profit: -11,74 USD
Starting BR: 1000
Current BR: 922,39
Target: 6000

Cheers!

And also this hand happened yesterday and made me finish 15th in the 4K Splash Tournament. But this is Poker I cannot play a FT whenever I have a deep run

áuccs ez csúnya

Mit gondolsz CO megadásáról? Az elég laza szerintem... 35%-ban kell jó legyen ha jól számoltam? Az szerintem neki biztosan nem lesz meg a pushoddal szemben. ( nem pusholsz any2-t ugye? )
