Twitch update:
Again, lets do some Nl10 6max Zoom 4 tabling. I have less then 1 hour before I leave for movies so we are starting in 5 minutes.
See you HERE
Hey gang,
Just couple of things to mention that have been going on lately.
Past 2 days, I didn't play a single game of Spins. I played NL10 6 Max Zoom. The reason is, I feel already in somewhat holiday/Thailand mode and I wanted to take away Spins goal and challenge for 2017 and do couple of games of CG. I do not intend to switch back nor to play CG FT. This is just to blow of some steam. Great thing about playing CG is you learn a lot about range vs range and proper bet sizing. So 4 tabling ZOOM actually pushes my brain to think of range vs range strong just like at Spins except there is no 4 bet pots in Spins which makes things even easier!
Thailand trip. Initially I was thinking that I could grind this whole week put in like 30+ hours and then just on Friday and leave on Saturday. Boy was I wrong! I had to meet with my best friend like 3-4 times past 3-4 days and before. Had to mail in passport, get passport photo taken, meet to get my passport, make arrangements for traveling to and from airport(s), grab money from bank, exchange money, send money to a friend of mine who will meet us there, hire a maid to do all my t shirts ironing (and of course do loads of laundry washing and drying). So yeah, definitely not 1 day job it spread out over 3-5 days easy!
It is not every day that I get to visit my dream destination, Asia so I want it all to be as smooth and as great as possible.
I did play less hours this months then I initially planed but I am very happy in regards to fact that I studied every day when I played and have over 20 study hours over which I adapted my game plan in several key areas and improved my win rate further. Also like the fact that I started testing shorter sessions and I do believe they will be long term more +EV then 1 hour sessions in general.
My current make up situation with my friend is 950$. I have money set until 15th of March so to speak (Thailand trip + February rent and from lessons I will get food and bills payed). Which means that I will have about 26 days and then 2 more weeks, 40 days total to grind, clear the make up and make profit for future rent money and bills.
I am positive in 40 days even with 5 hours average daily grind that I can make more then enough money in 200 hours grind (6.4k games!!!).
In the process of this whole year and further, I will not let go of my study habit again. It is keeping me in check, adds tons of value to my game and it makes me question all my decisions at the tables when applying new/adjusted/improved strategy.
Finally, I enjoy Twitching a lot! I don't use music, tv shows, podcasts or such things but I rather discuss range vs range in every single hand 4 tabling and I do my best to answer all the questions and great my guests and followers. Definitely plan to continue doing as it is 1 more extra things that adds value to my game and my plans in 2017.
I do believe 2017 will be year of my biggest growth. There is plenty of time to put in 1500 hours. That is 300 days with 5 hours of daily grind. In January I will end up putting less then 100 hours but I don't mind it. January is for me getting the engine running, focusing on system and habit building and maintaining with studying. Key months will be from February or where I will go for 150 hours per month of grind on average to get myself additional 30 days of vacation that I can eventually use by visiting my friend in London, going to Vegas or such like trips (Tokyo - my dream destination!).
Win rate wise, 4 tabling 57-62 cEV by the end of the year over larger sample (45-48k games) would be phenomenal. Anything bellow that is decent improvement, lowering win rate from 2016 would be dissaster of course especially on such decent sample!
Would like to finish this update with plans for remaining 2 days (leaving on Saturday afternoon):
Tomorrow:
- Go to pay and get my travel + health insurance for Thailand
- Visit Spa center and go to Sauna. Use it for my extreme Tim Ferris weight loss suggestion. Weight myself there
- Study Spins, do HH lost hands from last day played
- Grind Spins in short sessions. Play well rested not feeling tired dizzy or sleepy.
- Eat 1 to 2 meals again , 4th day in a row. Make 1 of the meals myself.
- Potentially meet some of my friends for coffee during the day to say quick fare well
Saturday:
- Pack for Thailand trip
- Go to clinic and do body fat and food tolerance testing again. Get results and compare to the ones from August or so when I had 88kgs and 18.9% body fat.
- Check all the things for the trip (passport, money, ticket, things packed, medicine etc)
- Say fare well to my family
- Leave to Belgrade 3:30pm
- Meet my cousins and friends at Belgrade around 7pm, hang out until 8:30pm
- Get to Belgrade airport by 9pm
- Check in 9pm, make sure everything is all set for flight. Hang out until flight.
- Fly to Abu Dhabi 11:15pm
That's it gang.
I would like to thank you once again for reading, following, asking questions, seeking knowledge and overall keeping it cool around here. I enjoy my blog a lot and without you it would not be the same. It is diary type of blog but I firmly believe that anyone can benefit from my ups and downs and where I am heading. Hopefully in the near future, you will be reading 10k+ monthly updates on average here. All it takes is getting to 60s Spins and that really ain't that hard as people make it sound to be. Just need to systematically keep working on my game, do dozen HH reviews and brain will get faster in those spots and know exactly how to adapt and adjust. Until then, lots of trying failing getting up and pushing through it all.
Have a great week and I will update if I do Twitch tomorrow study and grind session!
Your friend and support always,
Pedja aka IvicaIliev77

Results are in!
Today's results:
Results from 27th of July 2016:
79.4kgs, 13% body fat, muscle mass kept roughly from 88kgs, 6.3kgs of fat out, way more defined arms, stronger legs and fat around belly less.
Excellent results, very realistic goal set and meet for Thailand!
Next targets:
- 3kgs less
- From 13 to 10% body fat
- Focus on ab exercises with some cardio to speed up and polish the process
- Continue with 1.5-2k per day calories per day intake with focus on proteins mostly.
Would like to thank my one and only Sensei for helping me all the way and pushing me to always be better version of myself in work outs. With him I went from beginning of June until now from 95.7kgs with tons of body fat (way over 20%!!!) to now 79.4 kgs (16.3kgs less) and only 13% body fat while feeling stronger and in overall better health and shape.
Next update when 10% is meet which can easily be in February some time - depending on what I eat and drink while in Thailand :f_cool::f_drink::f_love:
Twitch update:
8pm, in 47 minutes, studying! OOP lost hands from last day of grinding. Studying will go for close to 1 hour after which I will decide if I will fire some shorter sessions to grind Spins (feeling tired so likely not!).
See you at 8pm on Twitch
Hey man,
thanx a lot for your advices, they are very appreciated!
PS: watched a bit of your stream 2 days ago... 47s nh/wp... (its the one you called Pre 3bet IP, float flop, jam Turn)

Hey man - you welcome.
I don't remember that hand but its quite common line to be honest. Most opponents don't protect OOP turn range after betting flop so they will be capped more often then not.
Thanks guys, you rock!
At Belgrade airport currently awaiting my 11:15pm flight.
Will grind 30 minute session on Spins now without twitching (using USB stick internet - slow for streaming).
News:
Will need 3k VPPs in Thailand to maintain SN so that is about 20 hours of grind in following 9 days or so! Likely happening early morning when I get up and after beach 1 hour.
Whats up Gang!
I am in Thailand, having awesome time enjoying it a ton!!!
So many cool things happening here, 10 days is definitely not enough to stay in this lovely country. I will write more in depth when I return to Serbia on 2nd of February but until then just 2 key points:
- February will go for 120+ hours of grind as well as study daily
- Money saved in 2017 will be used to come to Thailand again in December for 2 or 3 months!!!
Will elaborate more on these and other points when I return. Now I am in a lovely restaurant, drinking Mango smoothie and will update my calendar for February (guitar and music lessons scheduling + study and grind sessions scheduling).
Thinking of you all also, sending you lots of love from Phuket Thailand!
February schedule for studying and grinding is done.
I will keep it as consistent as possible when I return from Thailand on 2nd of February. During the times for studying and grind I will be Twitching all of them so you can get the chance to jump in any of my sessions and follow my work.
