Thank you guys :) Relaxed last night, drank 3 beers and had a good sleep
Today is new day and I plan to play 150 games minimum. Tomorrow there will be football derby between Red Star and Partizan Belgrade, I will watch this game of course and later in the evening I am going to gig where I will perform as guest star - fun stuff :)

Quick recap of past 4 months and 20 days at stars

Bad news first

- It took me way too long to adjust to Stars vs Ongame blind jumps
- Was spewing and still am when I get some emotional pressure and tilt while playing
- Mental game is direct reason why I don't have more positive ROI cause my game ain't stable always
- Volume goal is not an easy one and that puts extra pressure which causes even more tilt
- Coaching and staking + other life things also put extra pressure which can turn into disaster for my game as I am very emotional person :)
- Tons of swings in this period, couple of 100 buy in swings and some 40-60 buy in swings also mentally put pressure on me (will I have enough money to play on my own etc)

Good news now

- I am on track with my volume and feel good that I hit SN in this period
- I have done SOME work off the game but I can always do more ( I would like to do 1 hour a day minimum but do far less like 10-15 hours a month)
- I have fixed some leaks while playing on Stars which I am sure I wouldn't have on Ongame because of blind increase (jumps)
- My HU has improved and it will keep improving I am positive about it
- Some old things that I learned are finally sinking in and definitely have edge on this limit
- In this period I had very few sessions with Gerovit and now we are resuming them which will result in even more new concepts edge finding and leak fixing
- I am now aware that even with all those regs out there I can have 3%+ ROI on this limit
- Can't wait to move to 30s in 6 months or so !
- Very positive expectations for the end of the year and next year

There you go , heading to tables now and thanks for thinking of me and following everybody :heart: :f_eek:

BTW , Gerovit suggested that I switch to 30s now and play until the end of the year same volume to reach 200k SN
It is very tempting I must say but I don't want to risk losing money there now so I guess they have to wait for after new years (like March or April)

Yesterday I played 150 games as planed. 2nd session was 4 hours long so there was a more periods of bad play. Most of the setups were in bubble so I am overly happy with my play yesterday. Training myself again to play 2 long sessions vs 3 shorter ones because of time thieves in between.
Today besides derby game and gig in the evening I am going for drinks with ex gf now and later around 2:30pm I am taking people to my favorite restaurant to treat for SN :)
There will be 6 of us total, my brother - best friend - Gerovit and two friends that I meet trough our program. Fun times ahead. Today no playing obviously so this will be that day off (one of the two!).
Have a good weekend everybody !

Pretty awesome day yesterday full of fun activities.
Haven't played a single game yet today , was considering whether or not to take another day off but decided to play some games. Will go for 150, if I play 100 will be satisfied since its 8pm already. About to play 4 hour session, see you at the tables :)

Already used up 2 days off in November
Spent most of the time last night talking to our students, potential new one, posted coaching and staking offer here on Poker Strategy and finally worked on some HU assignment.
I will try in the following days to push the envelope, play more then 150 games to get another day or two off by the end of the month.
