Hello!:)

POKER

Today at the table I had several maniac who were coming all-in all the time but luck was't with me.They broke my KK and AK many times, always on the flop I had about 70%chance to win or more but that was not enough and I lost every times today.Despite this situations my mind was still focus all my decisions was good.I remember when I was playing poker 2 or 3 years ago and when someone broke my AA or something like that I was upset and then all my game was horrible but now my minds is iron.If someone have some problems with mindset I recommend some videos from Pokerstragy, in the Polish community we have Lechrumski and he is a great person who give my many of tips to how can I manager with stress, with the focusing on the game and many diffrent stuff

MISHMASH

Like you know I run two groups of kids and this is too much for my and from next month I will be coachig only one team so this give more time to reach my goals.
Tomorrow I have free day from work because I'm going to give my blood so I try to achieve 3000 hands and the rest of the time I'm going spend with my faincee because she is sick.

Can you recommend my some movies or series?I will be really grateful for some recommendations:)

Hello

POKER

Today I was play 2 sessions and that was 2000 hands.I had today real roller coster, I had many situations all-in, but still luck is not with me:)
I have to play about 50 000-60 000 hands and then I will be know everything until I don't reach this goal. I will be persistent!!
I can't wait to try my skill at NL10 because I think the level between NL5 and NL10 is similar but I need 400$ in my bankroll so I think I need month or months for that:)

MISHMASH

I'm still persistent about my learning of English and as you know this blog is one of my site learning of English.I need extra boost and just after my wedding I take same private lessons once a week and that should give me much more benefits:)

Today I was give back blood, so I have day off from work and of course from any sports and I just enjoying my free time relaxing front of the TV and watching Harry Potter with my fiancee:D

Hi:)

POKER

My last days of playing poker was tough.Many of times my chance of winning like 70 or more % was crashed all the time and today was the same day I lost 3 time AA vs KK,AK and QQ, but having a good bankroll does not effect on my game so I still play my A-game and I try make all the time optimal decissions:)
During teh weekend I will play more hands as usually and I want achieve about 5000 hands.
I should play more hands on Sunday because then is alots of fishing but Sunday is day when I'm usually little lazy and I prefer spend my free time with my fiancee watching some movies or meeting with friends than play the poker.

MISHMASH

Today I have meeting with my kindergarten designer and turned out that building which we are checking is alright to open the kindergarten.
Maybe one of the my major goal will be achieve in this year!
I want so much be a entrepreneur and I do everything what I have to to achieve that:)

Hello:)

POKER

If you want achieve something you must do things which other don't do, so yesterday after the match when everyone went to drink some beers, I went to home and thank to that today with fresh mind I can wake up early and do alots of stuff like play 2000 hands, learning the English, make post on the blog etc.
Life without alkohol is much better!

Going back to poker, today I felt great during my session so all my decsisions was clear and I think good.I'm really curious about my results but if they will be avarage that will be no problem for me because I will be still grinding until i don't beat the NL5 .

I was thinking that amount of fish at NL5 will much smaller but I'm suprised because amount of fish is really good.I have always fish on the table and it's no problem find table with or more fish.

MISHMASH

I don't know how is in your country but in the Poland we have many of people who are interested ski jumping and today about 1 a.m all polish people will be keep fingers for our jumpers so just after the work I go straight ahead to my friend and together with other friends we will be cheering so much.

Kamil Stoch will be the winner!:)

Tomorrow I will make summary with graphs and of course with my thoughts which are so boring for you:D

I don't what I have to thinking about this, maybe I'm the brake even playe ron NL5 but I will patient until I don't reach 50 000 hand on this limit then when I will be still brake even player on nl5 I change my whole game, it means:I take the coutch and I buy 10 or more hours with pratice and learning with him.

I really I don't know how it's posibble then I make really good results on NL2 like 20bb/100 and on the NL5 I'm brake even player, I don't see any special differents between this levels, really! On nl5 is a lots of fishes as well and level players who play regulary is simmilar maybe they are a little more agressively, especially on the blinds.

I not give and this week will be much better I'm sure abot that.My goal for this week is play 10 000 hands and we will see what the results tell me in the Sunday:)

Hello:)

POKER

I started the week really good and todays session was nice.I hope that my skill are enough for NL5 and NL10, for my the winrate like 6-8bb on the NL10 isenough and I don't want go move up like NL25, NL50 because I don't have any time for learning.I spend alots of time learning new stuff, watching new videos, practice with the couch and if this will be not enough for NL5 and NL10 I probably give up from poker and maybe I will be only gringing NL2 .

If I reach 50 000 hands on NL5 and I will be still brake even player I just stay on NL2 and played 1,5 hour per day I can reach about 150-200$ and this will be enough for me.Of course if I can't play in my work I probably give up the poker for ever and I will find some another thing to do:)

Curenntly I will be play for 100% and I will be focus maximum on the game and we will see what the results will be :)

Hi:)

POKER

Yestarday I played only 400 hands because I had a lots of work in my job, but today I want to play about 2000 hands.
My currently results are average I think I will be brake even play or I will be have about 3-4 bb/100 what this bad score for me:)
If I play 50 000 hands and I will be still brake even player I move down and I will be grinding NL2 at this limit I play normal ABC game, watching some movies in the background and I have still more than 16bb.

MISHMASH

I'm the big fun of football and my best team is Real Madrid so after the yesterday's match I feel really amazing and I'm so happy because many of people tell me then PSG just destroyed to small pieces Real Madrid but I belived in my club all the time despite the current form.I know thas is not the end of the battle but I'm sure that this score is really good before revenge.

Hello folks:)

POKER

Today I played more than 1200 hands but my goal for today is about 3000 hands.Like I said yesterday I will play 50 000 hands on NL5 and if I will be still brake even player I move down to NL2 and I will be grinding inly NL2.I don't have time to learning new stuff with couch, watching new videos, ananylze own game etc.
On the NL2 I can play ABC game, only valuebeting good hands, watching some movies and results always will be good.

MISHMASH

In the Monday I will go to sport camp as the couch so I think there will be a little less poker as usuall, but we will see.For sure that will be very good time, because the camp is in the mountains so I will make some good pictures from there:)

This is over, I decided to give up my challange with NL5.It's waste of my time, if I'm the brake even player through 25 000 playing on 8 table and making all the time the good selections of tables where I had always some weak player this means that my skill is too low for NL5 and like I said I don't have time to spend many of hours to learning new stuff so I decided move down to NL2 and I will be grinding only NL2:)

To beat NL5 you have to thinking a little more especially when you play against reg player, while I played really ABC poker which give me the good results on NL2 but for NL5 it's not enough.

I will be still play poker because on NL2 I will make good results as well and I will be make always summary in the Sunday:)

MISHMASH

Today I will go to Krakow to doctor and after that I will go straightfor snowboarding with my fiancee so that will be great Saturday:)

In the evening also I will be watching the mach between Virtus Pro and Mousesprts.I'm the big fun of Virtus.Pro I keep the fingers for them from 2007r and I was on few big tournament like PGL MAJOR in Kraków and also IEM Katowice.Today is unique day because that will be the first tournament without TAZ so I'm so curious about new lineup wth MICHU :)

Hi mate, don't give up, just level down if your bankroll is not enough for NL5 but your focus must to be on grow, learn and level up again, try to play less tables, like 4 or 6 tables, with 8 you have less focus and is very important to keep it high and think to what you're doing, especially at the beginning. Sit more tight, you're playing about 27/26 VPIP 20 PFR, is too loose, most of the players are NIT or TAG. Keep up the good work and see you at tables mate :f_drink: :f_drink: :f_drink:

POKER

Thank for givingme a little motivation, but for the next 2 or 3 weeks I will play on NL2 and then when I reach about 300$ I will decide what will be next.
I know it will be stupid what I write but when I reach 300$ maybe I will try some shots on NL10.I played this limit in the past and I was always brake even player.

MISHMASH

Like you know currently I'm on the camp with my teams as a coach, is really good we have here great the wheater, a lots of snow, a lots of fun and of course a lots of trannings, but I have some free time for myself as well, like for example getting up before my kids rise up and that will give me two extra hours to play the poker session and learning English.So I wake up at 6 a.m and just do my all stuff:)

I will upload pictures here just to show you how great is landscapes here:)

Is really great to play a session here because when I wake up about 6 a.m whole camp still sleep so is so quietly and landspace is amazing as well:)
So when I wake up I make a coffee and session is really cool :)
Reagrding NL2 is pretty cool as well, game here is easy for me so with my ABC game my results are all the time around 16bb or more.
Maybe if I reach 300$ I try play on NL10 I think the level between NL5 and NL10 is the same, because I was try play on this limit one year ago and I was brake even :)

MISHMASH

Like you know I'm still on the camp and atmosphere here is amazing we heve a lots of fun, the weather is great, is a lots of snow here because we are in the mountains so landscape through my window is amazing.
I have here poor connections internet but I will try upload some pictures from here :)

Regarding NL2 situation is the same I play still ABC poker but my motivation is come down because I know that the NL5 is hard to beat and I think I stay on NL2 forever:D I will make 300$ and then I will try some shots to NL10 maybe there will be more easly for me....but I think on NL10 I will be brake even player as well:)

MISHMASH

I'm still on the camp I stay here until Sunday, I needed situation like this for change a little my goals, to re thinking everything.

My motivation will a little declined so I decided to try my knowledge at NL5 zoom, I play 4 tables and we will see maybe this format will be better for me.
I will play more tight than usually like 20/18 and I will play about 20 000 or 30 000 hands and we will see what the results will be.
If I play one format or one level of poker more than one or two months I feel bored and I have to change something to recover my motivation.

MISHMASH

Like I said my internet connections here is poor so I can't upload any picters from here, that is sad because landspace from here is amazing, there is a lots of mountains around us and when I come back to home I will upload picters as fast as I can

The last week was really tough, for a whole time I change the format once I play NL5, then I start play NL2, then I play zoom, then I play normal tables etc.
I was brake even and I have still about 150$ in my bankroll.
I was thinking yestarday about poker and I decided play 4x table zoom NL5.I want play about 12 000 hands in this week and we will se what next.
Today I played 1500 hands and I felt comfortable and results should be good, but of course I need bigger sample, like 50000 hands to see what the results will be.

MISHMASH

Today I'm the first day in work, because I just comeback yesterday from the camp, when time was really great for me.
I have to change my job, because I have to work in the place where is my passion and after the weeding I change my job and I start my own business!
I'm so motivated and this week on the camp give me a lot of power and motivation.I had a lot of free time to think about all of the stuff like job, my goals etc and just after the my weeding I will change my job and I will pen my kindergarten and also I will be lead to groups of kids in football and then I will be really happy and fulfilled:)

POKER

My goal for today it's play 1500 hands on NL5 zoom and I will play in the evening because in the morning I decided to sleep a little longer than usuall.
In the Poland we have currently very cold it's aabout -20 degrees so when I wake up I feel so bad
I prefer play in the morning when my mind is fresh but maybe I will take short nap and when I will play in the evening my mind will be fresh as well:)

HI

POKER

It's really great to have again motivation to play poker, since I changed the format from normal tables to zoom, my motivation boost instantly.
To keep this motivation on the good level I have to acheive about 6bb/100 that will be enough for me.Currently I feel comfortable on this limit and with this format but results show me everything.Yesterday I played 2500 hands and I think teh reults was good but I don't check the bankroll so I don't know exactly how my results look like.

MISHMASH

My primary reson for learning the English is actually reading and listening the books in their orignal language.I have subsctription on Audible but when I buying some books from there I don't understand most of it and that is so frustraiting for me but on the other hands I have much bigger motivation to learn English.
I realize that my post are bored but thanks to this I can improve my English faster:)

Playing on the NL5 is really nice, I feel good on this limit and my morning session was not bad.
I tried make a summary once a week, but I'm wondering about make a summary after playing 50 000 hands on NL5 zoom, because when I play about 15 000 hands and I check my results and they will be around brake even my motivation will be much smaller but If I achieve 50 000 hands and results will be still brakeeven then I will be sure that I'm just the brake even player while when I play only 12 000 hands a sample will be not enough to tell something objective about my results.

MISHMASH

I started use site where I can speak with other people with other country on the Skype.Yesterday I tolked with some man from Turkey, If I can speak twice a week for about 30 minutes that give big boost to my English!
