Dared to enter the $0.25 Spinz cave on PartyPoker again. +$0.29 as both called with undercards vs 99 shove. The blinds increase rapidly there... but the edge can be sensed.

Free form writing:

Being a father you will discover that the only thing people want is childcare. They will not be happy with anything else, and the world is full of people and children who are not being taken care of. The adults behave in childish way, pretending to be children, and will accept nothing else than childcare.

Few years ago I didn't consider this important and still didnt put extra emphasis on childcare, but now I see that the childcare is so much missing, that if I don't do that, the worlds of many people would collapse. You kinda sense it or something, they always give you this extra kid to be taken care of or extra messed up adult who has left their children behind; hey, go deal with that issue, now this drunkard is rambling on kids playground, continuing his soccer career that way... go fix that. Im like meh, yelling at that person to come to his senses, which he doesnt like. This isnt the only person who does that, but they dont do that together but wait for their star moment separately to gain maximum attention.

Small kids you can actually understand, they usually want to go to home or want the most delicious food available in the house. But these adults are trying to get their ex back that has left them 10 to 50 years ago. Then they behave like kids to get attention in that way... This really upsets everybody, where was that father, he should go fix that. These gamblers are like already homeless and trying to get to peoples homes near their ex's home, then, maybe, somehow, the ex would let them... to forever ** them. This of course never happens and they only cause trouble.

Im already like super used to it, but this really small kid of far neighbours in our home is sometimes like... creepy.

Building soccer gates at countryside.

Girlfriend: Can you make the soccer field bigger and put bigger gates?
Neighbor's kid: Can you make the gates wider?
Older son: Not that wide, I cannot cover that by jumping.
Mother: *sends worse tools than we have* + strawberry nets

Ok new challenge: to PLO2
Bankroll management: 1000+ BI BRM
Poker roll needed: 2000€
Current poker roll: 240€
Goal date: 01.07.2030 (in 4 years, this means about 4 years of peaceful grinding with 1000+ BI BRM and depositing money to poker roll savings acc from other sources)

There are milestones in between, such as 250€ roll means the ability to play 0.25€ Spin and Gos; with 330€ roll the €0.33 tournaments can be included; €500 roll adds the $0.50 buy-in level and €1000 would give me the luxury to play the $1 tournaments.

I am excited, I like the challenge because this time I test my money saving skills and long-term stability, not wasting the money on food etc but saving it for the better dream poker career, which I already experience, but being able to play even more games is every poker player's dream.

It's always like that... They pick too high stakes, then they face a grown-up there, then they're like: "Afraid kid leading!" That is of course always removed by a responsible person... The karma is: "challenge got scary" so no-one else can't do anything to change these efforts...

That is the problem for them. Picking a high goal leads to obstacles, and these obstacles are like super funny.

Example:

Neighbor's kid: "I will build a better home here!" (*starts building a hut*)
Me: "Ask permission from owner."
He: "No!" (*keeps building*)

Example 2:

Girlfriend's mother: "I will take over Estonia with my new left-wing party!" (*goes to middle of town square with our kids secretly and starts yelling to loudspeaker*)
Me: "I will call the police to you."
She: "Police!?" (*takes old man's bicycle and crashes herself trying to cross a big road with red light*)

As you can see, very high goals and many obstacles.

Added some funds and tried 0,25€ Spin and Go on iPoker. These, as I remembered correctly, start 25bb deep. They have added Deal option when you get to HU, and as it is super high variance, I accepted his deal and I got +0,20€ in few minutes... interesting games.

Had some nice sunrise session as kids are sleeping. I love being a poker player. Opponent sitting out with chiplead in €0.25 Spin and Go HU phase lol.
+0,55€ in 40min

Had some panic attack before session, but meditated with the feeling. Is just a small panic attack, it is good idea to continue with good BRM.

On youtube there are several videos that offer music designed to avoid anxiety.
This link will list several.

I often listen to the ones for "concentration and focus"

They may or may not work — who knows.

Haven't tried that. But why not some good audio meditations in the mornings.

Sports psychologist coach said 15minutes of visualizing meditation, visualizing the practice every morning. That has had some fun effects, such as saying: "Confident" to myself while running on road at countryside.

I wouldn't know how to do that.
Every morning before breakfast, I do some relaxing mental exercises. Not audio though.
The background concentration sounds are for while I'm playing.

Yes I usually have the audio on while playing, I love the sound effects of tables so much. When I was younger, I also listened to some good music while grinding, mostly punk or ska punk or punk rock. Nowadays I listen to possible kids interrupting or cats, to know if they plan to jump on keyboard.

Where I grew up, fast action was very much valued in that neighborhood. "Fast action humor" was very common. So I have that somehow in my belief system. Fast action works. Even if it fails, is like super funny to the audience. So I have created similar neighborhood with my belief system. Fast action is like super funny. I don't mean just multitabling online poker leagues; is also like doing tasks in a house or yard. Some people are like: "We would like to talk" but everyone goes to fast action instead and forgets these passive people. They are even laughed at or something. Such as in my childhood :)
