Hi, everyone.
I've been following the forums for a long time now but never really wrote anything.
I was thinking about starting a blog for a while now and finally decided to give it a go. I hope it's gonna have a good impact on my motivation.
I'm 27 years old. Started taking poker seriously about 14 months ago when a friend of mine staked me. Built my roll playing 12,18 and 27man regular speed SNGs. After that didn't really know what to play and I've just been playing whatever I was in the mood for.
About 10 months ago I moved to a new city and rented an apartment with my girlfriend. I basically had no plan other than to make the money I need for bills and stuff by playing poker. And that was the first month I actually made enough to be able to cashout some money. I've been playing mainly 180men turbos during that time.
Although 180men were going ok I wasn't really too interested in them nor I put a lot of effort into studying them.
At the same time I was also studying informational science. I hated it and was sick every time I had to go to that godawful place. Got the bachelor's degree(after 3 years) in that shit and after thinking for a couple of months decided to ditch all that crap and play poker. People around me weren't too happy with my decision to say the least. But with the current shitty situation in my country where my peers are happy if they can get a job that pays ~200 euros after they finish college it just seemed like the only way to give myself and my girlfriend, who is a huuuuge support, a chance for a better/normal life.
After all the big decisions were made I decided to treat poker like a job and most importantly decided to play only 6max turbos. Started out on the 3.50$, moved up to 7$ quickly and here I am. Been playing them for about 4 months now, had a lot of struggles along the way. Had a period where I was more than 200BI under EV and struggled with depression because nothing can prepare you for that kind of stress especially when you count on that money to pay your bills. But that's the path I decided to take so I snapped out of all that negative crap and today I'm determined to beat the game, confident in myself and my ability to learn.
Also, I'm currently in a coaching/staking deal which came unexpected but it was a huge moral boost when the coach offered to stake me. So at the moment I'm just trying to do my best not to disappoint my coach and we'll see where that takes us ![]()
So, there's my story. I wasn't planning on it being so long and boring but w/e ![]()
No need for graphs, hands and stuff in the first post but I'll try to update it regularly with all that stuff that might interest people.
