Persuing independency by VBZG and Variancekiller a 180 SNG MTT blog!!

Thanks for all the love to Gerovit and Kurrkabin.

Last thing that I have to do is display my goals for the next month in a orderly base, so here goes:

Goals for October:

[ ] Play 200+ hours
[ ] play 4500+ games
[ ] Start sleeping less by a half hour each week (So my goal is 7 a day at end of the month)
[ ] Don't bitch around if you lose because of bad luck (I am pretty good at this allready but still want to improve it)
[ ] Cashout 50% of profit including rakeback

Let's hope for a good month. Goodluck at the tables all!

200 hrs? That's 50hrs a week, not even counting reviewing time. Have you ever put in such hours before in a month? I mean I'm pretty happy when I have put in 100+ hrs, so double that would be sick.

Good luck with your goals anyway.

Yo!These are some solid goals,mate!Wish you a good month I'll be following.
P.S.How do I add you in the community tool?

I believe he did. Everybody who grinded higher stakes of Ongame 10man sngs did cause you can't multitable a lot there.

I have not done 200 hours a month yet, but since I am a free man now I think I can make that. Still got 1 day on wich I have to give training the rest is for grinding/girlfriend/hobby. So I think I can make it work. Also if I would have a "normal" job I would put in 40 hours a week without the driving to and from the location. I don't have to drive so I can put in more work than at a regular job.

Hello to all, SNG grinders, musketeers come back.

First sorry to all who was wondering where we disappeared. Tell you the true after I come back from my summer week holiday a lot of good and bad stuff run through my poker and personal life so, must admit, half because I didnt want to whine here about bad luck, half because I was lazy to do any posts...I did none of posting. And I am very sorry because of that, that was the last thing I wanted when I decided to have a blog with my mate.

Anyway we are back and rolling...I guess. Like you saw we change a game a bit from sng stt to sng mtt. First just for fun, but when we saw that this games are very interesting and beatable (low limit 2.50$) something come back...that feeling and passion or just $$$, not sure but we are playing and its fun again.

So goal for next month is to grind those games and learn a lot. Thing is that this time my learning to playing ration is be much different, so from 50:50 I am going for something like 10(20) to 90(80), which means a lot lot lot of grinding. Also because I dont have my account connected to pokerstrategy, my status going to drop to basic, which means:
- gona take coaching from Aaron Lambert
- gona play lot more because I will not have so much material to study from
- gona have a lot bigger BR because I am gona grind 2.50$ (some part of 8$) games, so my mental attitude should be much better
- and gona try to use my mate a lot more for sweating session, because, believe me, this guy is really really good, you gona see that from his graphs soon, so why not use it such a nice friendship
- because I am doing some special diet thing with my wife (we have some issue considering our health, so we quit using medications and now trying to solve our problem with food exercise) I am feeling a lot more calmer, which is still a way distant from where I want to be (for example that my mate doesnt need to mute me in skype while I am loosing 30:70 situations and so on...)
- and yes still try to use exercises from Jared Tendler book

Lots of preparation for goals, but tomorow I will post my goals for next month and some graphs for this month.

So we will try to make it nice here again.

Thx for reading

Since I have a new Blackberry Playbook I wanted to let join in a little part of my personal life. Nothing fancy, or pervers in any means of the word. Just something to inspire people to wake up early. So this is my ritual.

Enjoy and don't forget to leave a comment.

P.S. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED (for obvious reasons)

Lol @ vid, should be a bit longer if I really want to wake up early I think

I have decided to make a little difference in my planning for the next month. When I prepare to end a session I need to stop registering 1,5 hours before reslly stopping. This is because a 180 last approximately 1,5 hours to win. So as I reach the end of that I am left with fewer and fewer tables. It's a waste of time to play only 4 tables or something for an hour. This cuts down my games/h a lot.

So I infestigated what I could play and I think the 45 MTT SNG seems to be my best option. It probably takes some time to adjust to the format but I don't think it will be much of a problem. Also on saturday I had a 30 game session planned but I will play 1,5 hours of nl10 FR instead to practise my reading ability. During that time I will make more VPP than with the 30 games.

I will try to keep track of my VPP and FPP daily in this blog:

Playing time: 1.41 hours
FPP start: 1976.12
FPP now: 2041,74
FPP earned: 65,63
VPP earned: 43,75

♠_cool:

hello

congratz for the results...

thanks so far so good, just need to up the volume and get some reall $$ in

Not so many games and time yet, but had some unscheduled stuff getting in the way.

Playing time: 7 hours
FPP start: 1976.12
FPP now: 2338
FPP earned: 361.88
VPP earned: 240.87

Goals stay the same although my Pokerstars Status could become platinum aswell. This is because I play the $7 45's now aswell wich has a higher rake wich means more points offcourse!

So this week goals:
Playing 9h/day / 54/week / 216/month
Study 1h/day / 6/week / 24/month
Ratio 90:10 playing/study ♠_evil:
Do daily goals
Be active on blog

Wish us luck!

Let the luck be on your side.I'll stay tuned for new updates.

Had a sick day today. Total of 13 hours played.... feeling a bit meh

Games played: 390
Playing time: 20 hours
FPP start: 1976.12
FPP now: 2877.92
FPP earned: 901.8
VPP earned: 599.91

Also ROI for today is pretty good 68%

So far the only negative thing is that I think it's going to be pretty hard to keep up this type of volume. So I either need to up the amount of tables or get some cocaine to keep myself awake.

♠_cool:

Agree with all my mate put up, so today the day looked like this:

Games played: 220
Playing time: 10.5 hours
FPP earned: 422.24
VPP earned: 280.72

Roi was ok, but still not gona put it here, until the end of a week, and it wasnt so sick as of my fellow shark. 68% come one, sick!!! ♠_o:

Expect to to more games tomorrow, today had complication with HEM and some with TableNinja, but that is solved now.

Over and out

Even sicker day than yesterday 12 hours played this time but with bigger $$ profit

Games played: 665
Playing time: 32 hours
FPP start: 1976.12
FPP earned: 1497.7
VPP earned: 972.26

Got a lot of rungood for today. A stunning 101.4% ROI is making today my best $ day so far.

So far I have played close to 2k games on the $2.5 180's and I like it. Yes variance is a bitch, but she does have a nice side aswell and that nice side looked me up today. I must say she looks gorgeous.

I'm pretty much running on shedule so that is good aswell...

♠_cool:

Nice, one more fellow sng'er that contemplates usage of cocaine as ultimate volume enhancer!
First Kurrkabin who doesn't sleep for three days and plays like 10 crazy chineze grinders (tho he claims he is on some kind of a builders diet, pumping himself with steroids etc ) and now you with sick 275 games!!!
And i thought i put ok volume with my miserable 90 10-man's today

Really man well done, great volume even better roi, i wish you at least 10 days like this in a row.

Also congrats to my neighbour VBZg at least on great volume, i'm pretty sure roi's is similar

so we are running pritty good with our goals for now, a bit exhausting but worthwhile, anyway today the result is:

games played: 310
playing time: 12.5 hours
FPP earned: 560.56
VPP earned: 372.68

ROI very satisfied, and tomorow going to have coaching with Aaron, cant wait. Today had a lot of bad attitude and tilt (emotion) out of control situations, but thx to my mate ♠_cool:, that went better than before, at least i want to think that. In general I am still a huge Tilt Fish, so lot of work in that area.

Thx for reading
