Hi Colonoscopy!

I like the way you organize your blog and I think it's really helpful to follow your goals.
It also could help you to stay motivated, but I think you have much bigger motivations running around you and in general.

Please, take a look at https://forums.pokerstrategy.com/forum/thread.php?threadid=347065 and especially third one.

Regarding your goals - from my point of view they are also nicely organized and connected to each other, so that should help you to follow and reach them.
You know - it takes some time to form a new habit and it's important to have an often reminders before it happens.

Kind regards,
Alex

Thank you Alex, i thought it was a technicall issue. But now i understand ill fix it.

Goodluck with your challenge!
Will def follow your progress

Cheers from a fellow Swede

These three days i played realy well! A couple of realy good calls vs tilting opponents got cracked ran ~4bi under EV but im realy satisfied with the days since i made good calls and played good. Results will come.

Totalt Hands: 13,839
Total Winnings: 5,20$

Kids are at Daycare, Gym session done (My triceps are still shaking) & no-carb + protein ready! Time to get to the tables. I will try to play atleast 4 hours now right away and another 2-3 later tonight.

Focus will be to stop making fancy plays with zero EQ. Dont float flops vs fishes with nothing and try to rerais rivers. Accept that im beat when reraised all in on the river and make good folds. Straight forward today.

If i can do that me and my familiy will treat us with some cinnamon buns today se you guys at the tables!

What a day! Im so happy and proud of my focus and dedication today. In merely 101 hands in the beginning i went from 67bb+ to 357bb- and i was totaly fine with it. It was like it never happend. My mind was so into what i was going to focus on for the day.
All situations were good calls/plays and but the cards made the decision in favor of the villans. But i sticked to the plan for the day: played my 4h+ straight forward poker, no fancy stuff & grinded my way thru it and ended the day 333bb+!!

Hands for the day: 2969 (NL2 total 9620)
Winnings for the day: 6,66$ (NL2 total 13,14$)

Well done mate, keep up the good work!

Today im gonna try to get over 5k hands and 6h of playtime!

Focus will be the same as yesterday! Straightforward. In addition i will review OOP post flop lines and try to follow them better aswell. Se if i can get some hands for the forum later or atleast read and reply to some other pepoples posted hands.
Se you at the tables!

Thanks alot mate, se you at the tables

Blargh!

What a rollercoaster of a day emotionally. I had big troubles controlling my anger over making misstakes and losing flip pots third day in a row, it realy got to me today.
Abit after 1000 hands a lost a hand set over set who made me tilt HARD. I was so mad and hade to take short breaks that dident helpt and eventually i had to take a 2-3 hour break and complete the day at the evening. I almost ended up BE witch im happy with after such a tilt day.

I got to my volume goal of 6h and 5k hands aswell.

I took a break yesterday and dident even post this untill today Friday. Now im going back at it.

Kids are sick again... Ear-infection is back, double sided ear infection!  Volume and updates will be slow 2-3 days more. Havent been playing all weekend, today i finally could sneak in 2 hours! All went perfect, witch feels awesome. Will be putting in volume again when both kids are back at daycare.

Cya at the tables (Maybe)...

Wow what a week and a half! My family was all sick one after the other. Been to the hospital 3-4 times over last 9 days. The joys of being a parent for small children.
Tomorrow will be my first day “off” from the family since last update. I can’t wait to get back to grinding. I’v been working with Ulvars EQ and hade some small sessions here and there and all went superb. I will post total results from NL2-NL5 below and get back tomorrow with more daily updates…

Se you all at the tables!

NL5

NL2 & 5 total graph

Finally got some organization/cleaning done around were i play. I felt alot more relaxed today, played good and stayed focus all day. Since im will post update tomorrow with results. I’v also bought some no-carb vitamin drinks instead of energy drinks, taste awesome. Apple-ginger taste.

Keep crushing everybody!
