No .. I wont go to NL2 BSS. There is not poker .. there is just pure luck. To many fishes and I haven't patience to beat them and to play for 20,40 Cents. I hope I will raise my bankroll like this, I play pretty good and I think I can do this.

Tx for answer and sorry for my English.

Hello.

This is edit of an older blog, started 2 years ago but interrupted after 2 or 3 weeks due to no ambition and motivation of playing.

Now will be different, will be big !

I'm 22 years old, and i'm playing poker for about three years, but not big winnings, few hundred bucks at 3-4 mounts.

I started my new challenge 2 weeks ago, on PartyPoker when i deposited 200$ for a 200$ bonus offer. I have a blog on the Romanian site so i will update this one as that one, and after this i will keep both updated !

I'm playing NL4 for 2 more days and after i will go to NL10.

Starting details:

BR: 222 $
Partypoints: 13
NL 0.02/0.04 6 tables FR

Objectives until 10 February:

Getting used with PP ->
 BR > $ 301 DONE :club:
 PP > 211 points PaptyPoints ( to release the first bonus rate ) DONE :club:

Short - Med time objectives:

  Once i reach NL10 ( in two days ), i will play 7 days to have time to settle in, to take notes on players then the goal is to reach 1000$

Until 10 March:

:club:BR > 1000$
:club: 25000 Hands
:club: At least 2 more bonus parts released ( 40$ )
:club:Read all Bronze strategy articles from the Romanian site one more time
:club:Watch at least 1 video each day !

1000$ until 10 March means (650 -40) $/21days -> 29$ each day.

I write this blog to see my evolution in time. I hope I will get feedback, that will help me to become a excellent poker player.

Every feedback and recommendation is welcomed and highly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi, i did not update my blog for a while, i played but in a bad run. Is unbelievable !

Im playing for 1-2 hours, i get 2 BI and with two bad-beats i destroy all my work. I know is not a good thing to post bad-beats but i have to take the pressure and unload myself !

And the list can be longer, i have a lot of examples, i really don't want to remember them !

I'm tilted, i'm in a bad run and i feel that however i would play, i have no chance to make money and have positives sessions.

In one day i got from 500$ to 450$, and after that day i'm just stuck around 450$, i'm playing for a week and im in the same place, 450$. No upper no lower ! Is unbelievable .. i'm in a bad mood, i really think that cash-out is a good idea ..
