Hi! Short introduction: I am a 21 year old Computer Engeneering student from Romania. I have been playing poker for a long time and made a lot of money thanks to Pokerstrategy. However the end of 2013 was pretty bad, because I lost my motivation. I got to the point where I only played nl2 zoom and on autopilot. Then my mother lost her job, university was giving me a tough time, because my lack of motivation and around December 17-18 I realised that I was going on a bad road.
I saw it clearly! I needed to get back on the right track! So in the end of the year I was playing only NL10FR, in January NL10-30, February mostly NL20-30 and some NL50. March just NL20-50. I managed to cash out 950$ this year to pay for rent and living expences.

My bankroll is around 1200$, I don't know exactly.

Winning the free coaching would be awesome, I was thinking about how important would be to get a review of my game from a pro.

So far this year was good, I was pretty motivated, however the volume I put in wasn't that good. :f_confused: I have a "poker diary" where I wrote goals, br, cashouts, daily goals, weekly goals, new learned theory, identified leaks. This month I will write those thing here _biggrin:

Goals:
:diamond: Play daily 4 hours (120 hours total)
:diamond: Watch daily pokerstrategy videos
:diamond: Hand review + posting every Monday
:diamond: Go train for Marathon (May 5th)
:diamond: Play NL50 most of the time

Thank you for reading and good luck at the tables! _biggrin:

Sorry for not updating! :)

I played 1 hour of poker in the last three days, as I said I had a lot of stuff to do. It was a great weekend. I feel motivated for marathon and for poker to.

Here is my graph for that one hour: April 4

BR around 1350$

Today - April 7
I am at the Uni form 10 to 18 so not much time left for things I want to do.

:club: Train hard
:club: Play as much as possible X
:club: Use my time wisely(no procrastination)
:club: Review hands April 1-4 + Post

I haven't updated for a while. Here is my graph on Pacific for the first 9 days:

22 hours + I played around 3-4 hours on other sites to. So far bad volume for this month. I have to stop going out all the time.

At least training for Marathon goes well.

I started playing on Stars to, currently my BR is almost 1600$.

So far I'm behind a lot on my challenge, but I think it's possible to recover. _biggrin:

Today:
:club: Play the Sunday Storm Anniversary + other MTTs + some Cash.
:club: Study for University
:club: 20-30 min training for Marathon X

So yesterday didn't manage to get in the money in none of my MTTs, so BR=1550$.

Today i already played around 2 hours on Pacific and half on an other site. So far this month I have 260$ profit, which is ok. However I'm confident I could win a lot more with a decent volume.

I'm going to train now, then one more session for today.

Graphs so far:

Thanks for you update :)

Putting in a decent volume is sometimes hard to everyone, but unfortunately, it's the only way to succeed, so GOGOGOGO :) and don't look back.

Fran
