GOTTA CATCH THE LAST TRAIN - The Bankroll Challenge

Jernej I have full belief that you will make SN reality in this year!
I am looking forward to your progress with all the time management and priorities set in place. Feel this will be very difficult year but also very rewarding in all areas in life.
Keep up the motivation levels high, build strong habits with goals in sync with your life mission and I am positive you will own the challenge.
I will also continue to do my best to help you in all areas and really wish you all the best for 2015!

Will be following ♠_cool:

Added to my list of blogs to follow.

Good luck and hard work in 2015!

Hmmm.. I don't want to criticize your goals, but I think you are a little bit too optimistic!

You cant just grind/study all the time. You should rest in between.. take some days off.. go out with friends, go on vacation.. etc. otherwise you will end burning yourself out...
If you will play just poker every day and wont do other things, poker will get boring for you and you will hate it. Trust me!

Your goals are high and motivating and I hope you will reach them. And if something doesn't go your way, don't get frustrated, reevaluate and make changes!

Hi everyone,
#Pedja: tanks for your words! Appreciate it! Have a good fun on your trip this week! :f_drink::f_drink:

#Ramble: Thanks for following it

#rupucis2: I totally agree with you. That is why I will have at least 3 days off every month. Also I won`t be in front of computer 24/7
Also when I will hit 150 games (at the moment 75-90) I will stop play. So that can mean that I will play only 6h or maybe 7h if I will be 15 tableing and will be able to spend those grinding hours for something else.
But after all I need to do it if I wanna achieve all my goals. It is doable if I approach it correctly.

DAY 1 UPDATE
POKER
In the morning I go through filter that Pedja give me in last session. Make notes from around 35 hands. Most of them where just set ups, but I make some silly mistakes as usual.
When came home from work play one session of 46 games

Will do review tomorrow to see what was wrong.

HEALTH
Make soup with mixed vegetables and plum dumplings (I make them 2days ago and put them into fridge )
Also do first day workout from Six pack shortcut program.

LIFE CHANGING
Did not read yesterday. I am applying what read before. Especially at work. You can`t even imagine how much difference you can expect when you apply those concepts. I make a promise to myself, that I would do everything that they will ask me to do in those last months. I won`t ask for pay increase or some bonuses or anything else. And that I will give my 120%. It will also prove to me, that with hard work ethic I can achieve whatever I want. Yea I make only one wish. To get off all February so I will be able to prepare myself really well and lower variance as much as possible and build my edge.

WHAT I NEED TO DO TOMORROW:
- make review from today session
- make at least 2 deep hand reviews with combos and calculations
- play from 130-150 games
- read at least one chapter and make action steps
- workout - do 2nd day in phase one
- cook something healthy

GL at tables!

Hi everyone,

DAY 2 UPDATE
POKER
Today was really terrible. I will need deep review of what happen today. Also my net lag time to time, so I can`t play normally. I don`t look for excuses. It will still be much different if I would play good. All those things bring me to conclusion that I won`t go for 3rd session. So only 99 games done today from planed 130-150. Will get new net on Friday (9th of January). Until then I hope for as little lags as possible.
- make review from yesterdays session
- make at least 2 deep hand reviews with combos and calculations
- play from 130-150 games - 99 only

HEALTH
I workout in the morning. After it make shake from cottage cheese, banana, cranberry, milk and honey. Love that combination.
for lunch have soup, fish, salad and

. I know bad choice with it.
- workout
- cook something healthy

LIFE CHANGING
Read one chapter of GIUY. It is really great book. It takes you from day to day with action steps. Doing what is recommended. I am really looking forward on that area, because it is foundation for all other things that I wanna achieve.
- read at least one chapter and make action steps

GL at tables and off the tables!

DAY 4 UPDATE
Today I was unable to complete all goals. I fail on grinding. I start play at the morning around 8am and traffic was so bad that I need 3h and 15 min to complete 51 games 12 tabling. Also I have few problems with my net. Can`t wait for Friday to get new one. Now I have some sort of wifi from mobile operator. I have from 2 different mobile operators. But both of them are not stable. So I hope that this one will be, since it would be through cable. Also will get TV with 160 programs, but I barely watch it. It is more for my girl.
Also during play I get a lot of setups (at least the feeling was such). So I didn`t play another session. So on Saturday I will need to bring that in.

Workout gone nice, but now every muscle hurts me.

- 2 sessions of 50 games - only one, 51 games
- review hands that I mark during play, make analyzes
- read one chapter of GIUY book
- workout

Things to do today:

Keep it going - many people would give up with frustration of internet connection and use that as an excuse, but you keep going strong - Great motivation!

Thanks Ramble! Yea it can be really bad sometimes with that internet (Pedja now how it looks like ). Just 2 days more and I hope this would be history. Ok if it happens time to time, but almost every session is really bad. And probably worst thing is that almost every session with my coach is disturbed several times.
Future seams brighter.

It is Eric Thomas book Greatness Is Upon You.

DAY 6 UPDATE

Today was another bad day. Nothing seems to be right. Can`t play more than 20 games today because of bad connection. And in even those 20 games I manage to make huge minus. So I stop playing and start reviewing hands. After an hour or so, my keyboard run out of battery. So need to go to store to buy another one. Will probably buy some older keyboard with cable, because most of the time when you need it the most, battery get empty. I already put aside new mouse (also on battery) and put in one with cable.

Unfortunately I don`t have much to report because of that. I hope that this mean that my " Murphy day" for this year is over.

What I did yesterday?
- 2 sessions of 50 games - only one session of 20 games
- review hands that I mark during play, make analyzes
- workout
- session with coach

What to do today?
Today I won`t do much, because my sister came for a visit with her 2 sons and she don`t know at what time she will came. We did not see each other for a while (from last year ). I am really busy lately. Haven`t been at home for about 4 months or so. I live near Ljubljana now in rental apartment when house back home is empty. But that is another story.
Will do hands review until she came with boys.

Have a nice day off and on the tables!

DAY 7 UPDATE
Yesterday I didn't do much. Only workout first thing in the morning and review some hands. But have very nice day with my sister and her boys. I really don't know how she can handle both of them day after day. But when you became parent, it probably get into your blood.
But now back to work. Will need to catch up with staff that I miss yesterday. Will make plan how to get on pace with grinding and learning. Basically I will be unable to do much more during week, but I can do a lot at Saturdays, because this is my day off from work. Yea only one per week, not two.

Things that I did yesterday:
- workout
- 30min hand review

What to do today:
- wake up at 7am, have breakfast, take dog out, wash dishes
- hand review from 8am till 9am
- workout, shower from 9am till 10am
- at 10am I will get new net (can't wait )
- afternoon I will start grinding and review hands for another hour - start time depend on how long will take service team to do what is necessary
- buy last 2 parts of GIUY book

Have a nice day off and on the tables!
