WORK DAY 9 RESULTS

Played minutes: 67
Learning minutes: i don't know, its a lot

I started to use toggl.com once more, to track my time.
I wasn't feeling good about playing, so just learned (and played too much Dota).

DAY 10 PLAN

- Poker: Learn: (1 Technical Video + Notes / 1 Mental Video + Notes) DONE

--> Calisthenics training: DONE(2 rounds)

--> Going out to play a little fun chess tonight: DONE

--> Meditation before sleep: FAILED (after 4 beers just couldn't do it)

Found a pretty interesting site for improving/warmups: http://pokerwarmup.com/ .

DAY 11 PLAN

- Poker: Learn: 1 Technical Video DONE
- Poker: Learn: 1 Mental Video FAILED
- Poker: Learn: 30 min 1 table play DONE

- Poker: Session: 3x1.5 hour FAILED

--> Meditation before sleep: DONE

So i have some weaknesses, which are just really hurting my poker carrier:

DISTRACTED, UNCONTROLLED THOUGHTS --> my mind just jumps around, and gets bored at the the tables
RESULT ORIENTED --> Feeling bad when loosing, feeling bad when making a mistake / not focusing on the game as much as i could (a little bit too maximalist with my expectations!)
BAD PRODUCTIVITY --> When i feel bad, i just don't wanna play and wasting a lot of time on stupid things (not enough discipline)

I think my strategic thinking is pretty ok in most spots. I have to develop a much strong mental side, so from now on i will mostly work on that.

First action is going to be more mindfulness meditations / visualization. I will watch Finding Your A-Game series from Erik on PS and EightfoldPathToPokerEnlightenment from Tommy Angelo, and apply some concepts slowly.
I will not post daily graphs, only weekly or monthly graphs. Trying to be more concrete with my goals, but set easier ones.

DAY 12 PLAN

- Poker: Learn: 1 Mental Video (EPPE 1 video) DONE
- Poker: Warmups DONE
- Poker: Session: minimum 6 hour FAILED (running pretty bad, so i won't grind it out)

--> Meditation before sleep: FAILED

+ i watched some technical videos
+ skype sweat session fun

Will make some report and analysis.

Hey, That was a long vacation. I will be back shortly with more analysis and report / system

I'm ill a little bit and still home, don't have my grinding place...Tried to warmup with some NL50 zoom, normal100-200 things like that. So i'm going to plays some hands on zoom50/100 until the end of the month and move back to Cluj as soon as i get better. After i get back i will post daily plans.

GLHF

Hey, I'm still pretty ill Couldn't go back to Cluj, i will stay at least 1 more week home. I can't really grind on my laptop too much, so i'm working on my game. I will start posting again anyway from today!

Technical Learning Plan - Learning the situations

So i came up with some learning plans to follow, this is the first, the technical, with a lot of work needed. I will analyse in every important situation 100 hands / situation around the following numbers:

• 10 hands played by me
• 10 hands others played in my database
• 10 hands from forums
• 10 hands from coaching videos
• 10 hands made up specially -- practice hands
• 50 random hand example fast walkovers (from database mostly)

I just keep track of the learning process in the blog. Will not post analysis, maybe some when i have the time to make it nice.

Technical Learning Plan - Learning the situations 1

The 1. Situation is !UTGopen!, the categories are:

• 1.1. !UTGopen!vs!IPcoldcaller! 0/25
• 1.2. !UTGopen!vs!OOPcoldcaller! 0/25
• 1.3. !UTGopen!vs!IP3bet! 0/25
• 1.4. !UTGopen!vs!OOP3bet! 0/25

I will take around ~25 hands / category to analyse.

• 0/10 hands played by me
• 0/10 hands others played in my database
• 0/10 hands from forums
• 0/10 hands from coaching videos
• 0/10 hands made up specially -- practice hands
• 0/50 random hand example fast walkovers (from database mostly)

DAY 1

I will restart counting the days to keep it simple.

- Analyse 5 hands from UTGopen situations 2/5

I have to rest a lot cause of my illness and to lie a lot all day.
