[Closed] No Life

♦ Well this will give you a healthy colour............are you playing in the closet?

Good luck with that mate but not advisable. The more i play the more i realise you need a balance in your life or you wont be successful at poker in the long run. I play 9 tables 6 max past 1/2c, 2/5 and now up to 5/10c generally i play 25k hands per week round bouts. Main thing is to test the next limit with 1/3 stack size well thats wat i do so i don't commit full 100bb stacks into uknown oppenents.

good luck
with your level of commitment you can reach NL100 in 3-4 months maybe

Don't forget to add eating into your daily routine

Wow! Sounds tough, especially being in such a small room. Make sure you have the window open or it will smell like sweaty feet after a few weeks, haha.

Also I could do with coaching at NL5.

tb honest I don't believe that 15h of poker is possible for long period of time, but GL

having a life at the same time really doesn't have to take your focus away from the game that much. dedicate 2-3 hours a day to do sports, meet friends etc. and i think you'll have a much bigger chance of succeeding.

Good luck dude!

I'm honestly shocked. I had to read this shit twice!

lol, and I though I was a heavy grinder
Well, all I have to say is; Good Luck!

Sounds interesting, will be following the blog.

Although, I personaly think it will be pretty hard to keep it up in the long run as said above. If you can do it though, you'll come a far way.

Also, I personaly believe that playing normal tables will do you more good in the learning progress then rush will. If you're gonna play that amount of hours, you should be able to move up pretty fast anyway. Especially the low limits are crushable once you're good enough. Maybe the ABC-play works fine for grinding rush at NL5 and perhaps NL10 though I dont know...

No matter what, Good luck with it.

ABC poker on rush works until nl100 or so;
gl, will def watch this blog closely as I have a grinding plan for the summer myself

Your enthusiastm won't last more then a couple of weeks, from my experience.

Plase don't play 10 hours/day, you will get tired fast (especially a few days after you've started). Also, I think it's better to mix learning with playing. Play for 4 hours, take 1 hour off, study for 4 hours, take one hour off and play for 4 hours again. That's more then enough for 1 day.

You should also keep in mind that at the low stakes, spcially at rush poker on Full Tilt, variance is 0 EV at most, because every hand you play against diffrent opponents so they can't learn your game. Besides, micro/low limits players are not observant.

Wish you good luck.

Pretty cool ill be following this ♠_biggrin:

Thanks for everyones responses.

The reason I play Rush is tha I cant multitable much because I play on ancient 15" CRT monitor (i know, right!?) and Rush is the only option I have to get some decent volume.

And the reason for such a sick volume is, that I am unemployed (obviously) and I have to earn somehow. Whether I am tired and sick of poker doesnt have anything to do with it, I have to grind no matter what. Also I got my philosophy about the variance. Rocky Balboa said "It ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done." I like that quote and agree with it. But I dont like getting hit. I would like to hit someone myself. Imagine that variance is like a nagging bitch. Sometimes she is nagging, sometimes she makes you pleasure. But she has to know, who the boss is. So every 100k hands streak is like a pimp slap, to let her know, where is her place. She has to know, its gonna be my way.
