2017 MTT Grinding!

Yeah baby! Second part online! 1 or 2 parts more to come! Enjoy the video and make sure to leave a comment if you feel like!

Pokerwise I'm still running super terrible although I feel I play pretty okay. Not my A+ game like the end of last year but definately not bad. Playing a little bit less also in order to keep focus. Scoop is coming and I want to invest around 500$ into that one so really want to be on top of my game when scoop arrives. So I'm playing around 1.5 sessions a week and put more time into watching (and producing) video's

Yesterday was the first Sunday in months that I was able to play a decent evening session, including Mini Million, Storm, ... As we all know, playing a profitable Sunday is hard but having a decentsized profit is even harder. I succeeded though. After coming back from 1.1bb at the final 7, I managed to finish second in the 5.5$ turbo PSKO for little under 1k$. I started HU with a 4:1 deficit. I nearly got back even when I got A7 in 21bb deep vs TT Still no PSKO WIN on my record unfortunately but a second place is still a nice result.

Apart from that, had a decent Sunday. Cashed heaps of tourneys. Biggest downside was bubbling the mini Million with KQ vs KT for 60k chips.

No work this week so I'll probably play lots of tournaments. Have some work to do at home too AND I want to produce some video's so I got my work cut out for me this week. Also still planning which way I want to go with my blog because these random updates aint going to do it.

For now, samni out!

How's the grind going Samni?

How is your planning for the SCOOP of this year and how was April for you?

I haven't played too many poker last month cause of some private events. I will be playing close to full time evening schedules (and sunday all day long) for the next week so hopefully we can win some $$$. I'll keep you guys updated. Today I played a 11$ qualifier for a 109 scoop and managed to win it so I'm definately playing the 109 Main event next week!

Hi samni,
Does this mean your block will continue?
How have you been doing over the last 3 years?

...wishing you the very best for a peaceful, prosperous 2021,

Was considering it, but it's a pity that this community, which was once one of the biggest communities, turned into a bunch of moderators replying to each others posts.. What happened?

Great. Haven't played poker but trying to find a way to combine poker with a very busy private life again

Thanks mate!

I stumbled upon this website today.

I used to be very active on this forum in the past, can't recall exactly how long it's been, but I do remember you Samni. I think we were more or less dealing with the same stakes. I remember you were struggling a bit at first, but it seems it turned out pretty well!

I think the pokerboom is completely over, I just saw there were only 20.000 people playing online poker on pokerstars right now, which used to be a lot more. That also implies the field is a lot harder to beat now.

I don't know what's going on in your personal life, but I can certainly say that I don't have time to play poker anymore. Especially since I like to play tournaments, preferably the ones that take a long time.
I suck at cashgames, so I had to quit poker.
