Thanks!
Well So far just simple monetary goals that i posted on The first post. Obviously I Have weekly and Daily goals and a plan to reach The $100k but not sure If they are interesting to Be chopped here? I Have planned backwards with general consensus as too many variables on that path So The big goals are just "out there". Smaller measurable goals are Daily and weekly based.
Well my actual goals are to improve my game and climb slowly through the limits....
slowly because lack of time...
actual most time is during the working week in hotel room...
so actual i`m thinking of how it would be best to improve skills...
which topics have got to be learned first....
which goals are realistic to set for short, middel and long time?

I Will try and Post something up tomorrow.
Book 1:
Astrophysics for People in a Hurry
This has been on my to do list for a long time...but I have been "too busy" to be only busy...but alas now I took the bull by the horn and gunned for this.
Having quite a lot of interest and having education and job that have a strong need for knowledge on physicks of course made the leap to this book a lot easier. Having intel on basic physics will make it easier to understand, but then again Neil goes a long way to make it understandable for everyone.
Book starts with the Big Bang and finishes up into reflecting life in universal scale. Inbetween those quantumphysics and hyper large scale reflestions Neil tells about the different ways we can think about the birth development and life of the universe and what we know and don't know about it for example knowing why most natural shapes are sphericalan the dark matter being something we know is there due the gravitational calculations not matching without it but we have no idea what it is as it could be something in a dimension we do not understand yet.
Chapter on exoplanets and search for life was also very interesting
I highly recommend the book as it is short but very high on information about where we come from where we are and where we are going "in unimaginable scale". Good stuff to know as general knowledge too. The book might look like a uninterezsting and too heavy read, but imo it was not.
======================
Pokerwise had another loosing day finishing up at 4BI down. One bad play but other than that just running into nutz with 2nd nutz was the story thistime.
Tonight its back to the tables again. Was too tired to run an early morning session as the flu has been punishing.
GL&HF
Well few days of running into setups it was my time again
Great session overall. Was super focused and did enough folding. Also dropped back to 3 tables and it was a lot better. so much easier to concentrate on this level as it is I am still working a lot on playing spots right in all possible ways not just with the gut feeling.
Also I think I have used all the magic and luck now
getting anything but $0,2 is just luckboxxing
I ran analysis on NL5z GP with hero taken out and the pool is playing 26/15/6 and 49FvFCb
Discussion of bad Ax combos at Netgames blog in here
https://forums.pokerstrategy.com/forum/thread.php?postid=2897081#post2897081
And above that Post got me running some GP data analysis. 123k HH block is enough to reveal that NL5z is a rakemachine. Most Money is made By steals and cbetting almost Anu flop..I mean 49% FvFCb is almost a Money printer so with little thought there when that 15% PFR hits the 25% autofolds. I have most of the pool marked and there are avg 3-4 nits or "regs" at each table or some SSSnitfags you just flip flop with.
So the rake rape is so bad even saa they are smallish at stars I will hop back to reg tables for some time.
Also ranked season on World of Warships (my clear the head game) is on so I gotta grind some of that as I am semicompetitive in that "egaming".
After BE grind all morning hours at zoom hopped to regular tables for evening grind.
Yep it kinda shows in the graph..
First I was like
But then
And just looking at the Monthly graph at NL5€ regular tables well..Guess I know what I am going to be playing next month
can we see total graph of what you have been playing until now ? and isnt it soon time to move up ?

Goes to show how I am surviving fastfold due RB and making profit and keeping the boat float with regular tables ♦
Seems to be your way is going up....
how big is your BR?
Maybe time to make a short shot on the next limit...
GL and keep on crushing

ZOOM
Regular tables
ALL
So like i suspected RB and Bonuses are floating the zoom boat. Cash is made at regular tables. The zoom rake is killing me costing 10bb/100 with more than 62k hands in.
The rake at NL5 regulars is the same level but since its expected to have a much larger winrate it does dictate my next months games to the point I am looking into just playing regulars for a month and see how much volume I can get in.

Way is up for sure. Especially as I am playing mainly regular tables now.
Soon 500€ so will be taking shots at NL10 soon most likely.
Hi
Just read through your entire blog and wish you all the best. I started grinding again in July 2018 and I can also confirm that you can still beat the lower limits and be profitable. I recently (10 days ago) switched to PokerStars (I know the rake it huge there, but there should also be many bad players) and my winrate is epic. I know might be an upswing but at least the start was great.
I am having a +17BB/100 win rate over nearly 10k hands and I don't even think that I played that well. I have a few hands marked and analyzed that I played wrong. I only play NL2 FR and it works so far for me. I also heard that NL Zoom is a rake machine and therefore I prioritize climbing in limits over playing zoom.
I wish i could put in as many hours as you do. Good luck at the tables.:f_thumbsup:

Hi!
Thanks for The read! Hope you keep visiting.
Yes games are still beatable but a lot tougher than say give years ago.
You Playing full Ring might work thru first few limits but eventually The traffic Will die So I would suggest to play 6mx as soon as possible.
I really don't Have that much Time I just Make it on The evenings. Not realistic to Have much gains on decent Time without at least 10-15h a week.
seems you have got a conservertive BRM.
So keep the good work on the reg tables.
Maybe less is more....
I just cut one table of zoom and i`m much more concentrated when playing...
So when you try to learn something new or you want to implement something new to your game play less tables....

I play 3 zoom tables and when implementing something totally New I play 2. But basically you get same Volume 4 tabling and when you can table select The lesser Volume beats The high Volume at zoom with mawwively better bb/100
