hi, i feel very bored everyday now. i don't know what is my goal now. I don't know what money can do for me , really.
I seems to be a little jealous of people who work 9-5, having chacne to get to know stranger in a relative natural way.

i play across all site and only play 1K+ now.

- How long have you been playing poker professionally?
- What formats did you play professionally?
- What did you do to move up? (coaching, software, hh reviews)
- What sites are you playing on right now?
- Do you play live poker?
- I heard that in Asia it is difficult somewhat to play poker. How do you get around it?
- Your plans for future?
- Your daily/morning routine?
- Your goals with poker in 2017 and on?

Appreciate you finding time in advance to respond.
All the best!

- Do you play live poker?
i dont do it for two reasons
first, i like to only be very good in only one format,.
40bb 6max cash game.

second, my multi-tasking skill is very good becasue i was an AOE player so playing live is so boring, and i don;'t belive there is any live tells in poker, they are just over exaggerated
- I heard that in Asia it is difficult somewhat to play poker. How do you get around it?

- Your plans for future?
i save a lot of money.
i make like 30000usd everymonth now but I only spend like 3000 per month
so what i going to do is to just grind

- Your daily/morning routine?
i wake up, eat and play and eat and play and eat and play and sleep
not much recreation in my life actually
but i don't care, poker is what i like to do most too
and i have to play more when i can make money

i mean, they all make very little money and dont seem to work hard enough for their own lives.
they don't have the motivation to compete in this fierce society , they just complain how hard it is to make money
but i deeply belive how much money u make euqals ur ability.

oh yeahs definitely money can do a lot of thing but some thing can;'t not be achived by money too

You say, you play at your best at 40bb effective stacks which you buy in, then you are going to sit out every time your stack is > 70bb?

In regards to Asia poker question

I am considering to move to China sometime in 2017. I heard some stories that Stars does not work there and that there is overall cash out problem with it.
Whats your take on it and how do you get around it?

I understand them :) it is so fun to be lazy and do what you want, insdead of caring about money.

But also it is good that people are not motivated to work hard. Imagine if they were - there would be higher competition in poker and every area which would make us earn less.
