It was just a very bad joke about a typo you made:

I don,t have any problems

Without alcohol you don't have the strenght to lift the comma up to it's place so it could be an apostrophe. I know very bad situational humor...

Can you explain me exactly, how to use HMQL, to be honest I see this first time and I never use that

I saved my preflop ranges in a spread sheet so I can copy paste the requests (kind of filters) and look then up. For me the filters are very inconvenient. Now the bad news about HMQL - it's documentation is 52pages long...
But let's make a short example. For some reason you want to know how often you missed the opportunity to open raise T9s, 89s and 87s today.

select * from hands where (HoleCardString="T9s" OR HoleCardString="98s" OR HoleCardString="87s") AND (handtimestamp > {d "2018-07-28"}) AND FacingUnopenedPotPreflop = TRUE and didvpip = FALSE

If the list is empty good else you see how often you where wrong. Maybe an other helpful expression to begin with would be only situiation UTG

PositionAsInt=1

Then you could switch around the idea and compile a list of hands you shouldn't raise bud have. I think this is already a good enough starting point to see if this is indeed something for you too or not at all.

Good luck!

Thank you Rhodriguez, I appreciate that, and for sure I will try this option:)

Hello

POKER

What a great weekend so far, yesterday I had really good session, and todays session was great as well, so I'm really happy. I think I come back to right way:)

I play 6 normal tables, and I feel so confident. My table selection is a little bit strict, but that gives me advantage, because I always play with 1 or 2 weak player.

Currently I played 9400 hands and my goals for this week was 10 000, so in the afternoon I will play another 600 hands, and tomorrow I will made some summary with graphs:)

If I will be play my best poker, when I will be do good table selection, I think it should give me a satisfying results.

GOALS

Everything is great, I'm so happy:) yesterday together with my family, we did a barbecue, and if you do barbecue in the Poland and I suspect in every part in the world, the barbecue equals alcohol. My friends of course drinking some beers and drinks, but I was account for barbecue and this is why I woke up today at 5:05, and the rest of my family is still sleeping, so if I not drink alcohol, I can do whatever I do, and that's make me so happy:)

From 5 a.m to 11 a.m I make my stuff like poker, English, reading etc. then I spend rest of my day with my wife, so that should be-now, that will be great day!

Yesterday first time from month I was on a bicycle, and that was so great for me. I'm the person who is so happy from the small things, so I appreciate everyday, every moment and that gives me so much energy and positive approach to everything:)

Have a nice Sunday :)

Sum up

POKER

I know that some of you thinking that I'm wasting my time, I know that can be sound ridiculously, but I'm still thinking that I'm the winning player on NL2.

I just struggled with some problems. Firstly, the first 6000 hands I played mixed style, I try play 4 zoom table, then I changed zoom for normal, then I have only 2-6$ in my bankroll, co I was force to play w 40-50 bb on the 2-3 normal table etc.

Now I play 6 normal table, because I have about 26$, so I feel comfortable right now, and I exactly know that if I will be play constantly 6 normal tables, with great selection I can achieve really good results, so I looking forward for this week.

GOALS

That was such a great weekend for me. I did a lots of my stuff like 7 days without alcohol, about 22 hours learning of poker, 7 days meditation, 7 days cold shower, push ups according to programs, and much more so I'm very proud of myself.

POKER

Today like I said, I played 800 hands on 6 normal tables, and my goal for this week is to play 7000 hands, so I will play another 500 hands later.

The session was good, I lost a few hands, when I was ahead, but it's ok, if I will play my best game, I should reach very good results.

GOALS

This week will be great for me. Tomorrow I'm going on fishing with my dad on the whole day, so I can't wait for that.

Secondly one of my goals is to try 100 new meals, so in the weekend I will make some new meal, so that should be fun:)

Thirdly, the book Harry Potter and Philosopher's Stone should reach to me soon, so I can't wait for that, because I know if I will be read English books only, my English will be much better and better:)

Hello:)

I didn't write a post yesterday, because I have been on fish with my dad. Fishing is my hobby, so if I have an opportunity I use them.

I spend great time, on the private lake, and I catch a few fish. I'm big fun of catch & release, but this time I was on the private lake, so I took two carp to home.

Spoiler

POKER

Yesterday I played 600 hands, and I think I was break even. Today I had terrible session, and I'm little angry for that, because I lose so many hands by un luck.

I think I lost 3 times AA vs KK, set over set etc. I also know that what I must to do is to play another session and this time will be better I know that:)

GOALS

I bought some English grammar course, and I will be study this course every day, so I hope that give me some extra boost in my English:)

additional I added new goals to my list of goals which is, reaching mountain peaks.In last year I have been on the highest peak in the Poland which is "Rysy" that peak have 2499m. My goals is to Level 1reach 3 peaks over than 2000m, level 2 -reach 10 peaks over than 2000m, and level 3- reach 30 peaks over than 2000m

Every my goals is divided into three levels, like:

Level 1-Read 20 books in 2019

Level 2-Read 60 books in 2020

Level 3-Read 200 books in 2022 etc.

That is awesome for me, because I can focus only on the first level which is not easy, but also is not hard, and then If I achieve the level one, then I focus on the level 2 etc

Once again I rudely hijack your thread to do my English exercise for today.

I have been on fish with my dad.
on a fishing trip

... spend ..., ... catch a few fish.
You are talking specific about yesterday and not what is happening in general so I would use past tense here. spent and caught.

I'm big fun of catch & release
I have fun, it's fun, I'm a big fan of, I'm fond of

un luck
bad luck or unlucky

at least that is how I would have written it

Nice catch! Hope you will enjoy cooking and eating them as well. How much work does it take to gut them and get rid of the fish bones? Or you just need to fry them hot enough and the bones will melt? Lots of healthy fats and amino acids for great brain activity. Will help to understand all these books you plan to read and empty fishing the micro stakes.

Cheers!

Thank you so much it's really help me a lots in gramma English:)

To be honest I'm enjoying eating only salmon, other fish aren't for me too delicious:)

I was already fishing when i was 5 years old, so to get rid of bones, and clean the fish, it takes me about 10 minutes, so it's pretty ease if you have a little experience.

Yeah, fishes have a lots of amino acids and have great impact for our brain, I eat a lots of salmon, because he has one of the best fat.

On the other hand my wife is a big fun of trout, so if we are in the restaurant she always orders trout:)

POKER

Today I played only 277 hands, because I woke up at 5 a.m and I made my rituals like cold shower, 2 cups of water, meditation, affirmations and then I stared play, but at 6 a.m I started watch Virtus.pro, because I'm big fun of this team, and I watch every tournament. They won their match, and they will be play another match at 1 p.m, so I can,t wait for that:)

Despite this, today I have to accomplish a lots of my tasks, for example:1200 hands of poker, learning English for about 2-3 hours(it's varied.For example:reading books, learning from course, learning new vocabulary, writing a blog post, listening a podcast)

So I have to dedicate about 7-8 hours to accomplish every task, then I'm very proud of my self:)

The weather it's do great In the Poland right now, so I using the pool as often as possible:) I know also, that for one week I have to come back to my work, but I like my job, so that shouldn't be a problem for me:)

POKER

I decided to end my adventure with poker, and yesterday I uninstalled HM2 and Poker Stars.I know I was a winning player at NL2, but poker takes a lot of time me.

My results didn't satisfy me, because I earned about 1,5$ for 1 hours, so it,s not enough for me. I also know that everyone can be a winning player, and you can easy beat NL2, NL5, NL10 etc. all you have to do is just study, you have to focus on the analyze your game, watch some videos, maybe take some private lessons for the coach etc. I didn't have time for this, and this is why I decided to end my game.

I will be constantly working on my goals, and to be honest, I'm very motivated to learn English, reach some new skills and just improving myself.

Poker gives me a lot of great skills like calm, patience and of course one of the greatest thing "There is nothing to worry about things that we can not influence"

I don't like people who complain all the time about work, policy, health etc. They focus for example on politics instead of focusing on themselves :)\

I take responsibility for my life, for my career, for my health and I never complain, and if some people start complaining, I just leave that people:)

I think I have to close this blog also, because this site is associated with poker, and now when I decided end my poker adventure I think I have to close this blog also.

That was great experience for me, I have learned a lot of new things here, I improved my English a little bit, and of course I met great people, so that was great:)

Like I said I will focus now on the learning, I will be improving in many different fields.

Thank you, and maybe see you at the tables:)
