@ Fongie and Alverine: Yes, I have considered this fact aswell. The problem is that I'd not feel comfortable with having so few BI's for NL50. If I was to pay for flight and other expenses, I'd be forced to move down to NL25 again which would make it much harder to make more $$ then if I was to stay at home. :f_frown:

Since my longterm goal is to go to Brazil, going to Romania atm would jeapordise(spelling? lol) being able to make that. I still get all the perks of living with pokerplayers in Brazil, and since Brazil is a huge priority over Romania I had to decide upon not going. It is however decided that if for some reason I won't be able to afford Brazil, I will be going to Romania in feb-march instead.

So all in all not bad, though going to Romania now and Brazil after that would have been awesome ofc. :f_mad:

Get friends to buy pieces n bigger games untill you grinded a roll up?

Volume wise I'm doing really good. I've put in 65 hours so far, which is my whole last months volume in 16 days.

There have been days where I maybe stretched it a bit beyond my limits, there have been a few days where I made some mistakes I haven't made in a while. Not really a big deal.

I am a believer in "automated decisions". Meaning that once we learn to automate some of our plays, it will require less thought/energy in the future. This will enable you to play longer/more sessions. There is still quite a bunch of things I need to automate and integrate in my game, so I'm going to make a list of those things and spend 1-2 days focusing on each thing in particular.

For example, as TwiceT has/will mention in Pink Performance, I need to do some more light 3bets. 3betting BB vs SB more, 3betting from CO more (as a bluff) etc. So I will then spend my focusing on finding those spots, make a plan for what hands to use when and against whom and get more comfortable doing it.

Once I have that down, I move on to the next thing on my list. Think it will work as a charm :)

I also have a 5x staking for the $55 7k GTD Woman tournament that runs on sundays, so the next 5 weeks I'll be playing that (and/or other MTT's/CG on the side). Lets pawn some ladies :coolface:

xoxo :heart:

Ty Ingrid! :f_love:

I spoke quickly with my coach Pontus to tell him how I was doing and about my volume etc. He didn't have much time so he called me up on skype and asked me to install a program that he uses with his mental coach. It's some type of note program which you can also share with people. He uploads a graph for his mental coach after every session and writes down how he feels and how he feels he played etc and says its awesome.

So he asked me to do the same with him, only not as often as he has limited time so once every 5k hands or so. I am yet to figure out exactly how it works but I think it's awesome to have him follow my play. He said I could also put in hands etc that I was wondering about.

Feel very excited about it and I can't wait to get the first graph up and write down a few things. He really believes in me and wants me to succeed, and it feels great to have so many awesome people believing in me and helping me. Makes me feel al warm and happy :f_love:

Having so many people help me out and guide me, and realizing how much it does for me, I am thinking about mentoring someone myself. I quickly discussed it with Wriggers, and we'll probably start mentoring a microstakes player together. Give to someone what was given to me. :) :heart:

So if you're a dedicated player, willing to learn and put your heart and soul into it, start preparing a little application! ;)

Stay tuned for more info!

As vonki mentioned, we're both up for mentoring a micro stakes player. Which I will post in my blog as well for anyone who reads :)

I didn't quite feel like playing CG, so i started some MTT's like i sometimes do when I want to play a bit more for fun.

Currently deep in the 3r 40k GTD ^^ 86/552 (ITM was at 720).

I'm hoping this will turn into one of those epic nights where I decide to play some random MTT's and end up shipping one :f_love:

Likewise but then ''I stayed with Fongie ''oh look Gerv! Flips!''''
