Hi guys ,report from last week :)

Goals were:
Number of week: 3
Hours: 30 /24 uhm been lazy in the middle of the week and had to grind more during weekend
Hours of work outside of tables: 2 /0 MEGA FAIL again ,i have to push myself to do this work next week really hard
Watch videos: 3 /0 FAIL!!
Completely analyze reg: 1 /0 FAIL!!
Profit: 600 USD/597$ (really coincidence to the goal) and rakeback from week was 325 $ what is i think very good
Workout: 2 /3 atleast this part i did more than i expected :) played tenis and swam during the weekend

During the week i added two more zoom tables of NL25 ,mainly because i caught myself doing some bullshits on my cellphone during my sessions and as Leatherass in his book says: if u have some time doing other things during the session,you have to add the tables and stop wasting your time.
So right now im playing 4zooms of NL50 and 2zooms of NL25.. and i think i can handle it pretty easily :)

Started to listen to joe ingrams podcasts and its quite fun i think. :)
Do you guys watch this show on youtube?

Well, that's it - you done it in just 10 weeks. So my fears were correct - you'd master Poker too fast...
Do you have time for a small winner interview? The main prize from pokerstrategy.com-side is a free gold status.
If you're in - please add me on skype sven.bertelmann.ps

Most people with 100k debt and no regular income would be quite depressed. You move to Barcelona with new girlfriend and keep gambling :f_cool:

hey guys ,
thanks a lot for support im getting :)

and yeah most people would be depressed,but we live only very short time and there are more important things than money so fuck it :) What would help me if i was depressed locked in apartment :)

yesterday i tried after some while regular tables instead of zoom and i got one of the best sessions in last few months :

even that redline is quite good

what do you guys think about differencies playing zoom and regular tables?

let me know im really thinking about getting back to regular tables as in past.It felt to me much more like poker again ,not just everything GTO .. no dynamic on zoom tables :)

Hello guys,

after a long while im back at online tables and im about to enter another bankroll challenge ,but this one is gonna be different its gonna be huge and long :f_thumbsup:

here is a link to my challenge before with pokerstrategy the get rich or die trying and an interview with me.. HERE

Its been almost a year and i have been playing mostly live games all around Europe and currently im in for a new challenge since im currently living in Spain there was literally no online cash game action ,BUT all changed few days ago when the pokerstars.es/.fr was introduced.

CHALLENGE: from 1,200 € to 50,000 € in 10 months including rakeback and bonuses
Im planning to play mainly PLO and mixing in very few small MTTs currently at pokerstars.es/.fr ,but from June this year i will be back in my country from where i can play all online sites so i might change to party or stars.eu we will see what happens.

I played some PLO,mostly live ,but also some online. I will be focusing on quality not quantity so im planning to play
6-8 tables maximum and i want my average hours month to be 200hours of play + some hours of studies.
I will start at PLO50 and i want to shot take PLO100 with 2,500€ with 5BI stoploss and PLO200 with 5,000€ and also 5BI stoploss. If i drop to 600€ i will have to go down to PLO25,but lets hope it wont happen :)
Also i have two bullets so if i bust my first deposit 1,200€ im gonna give it another shot with also 1,200€
My plan is to move to PLO200 until June when im moving back from Spain so i will be able to have action on other pokerrooms,because there is quite ok action at PLO50/100 at stars.es ,but not so good action higher right now (it might change we will see)

WHY??? Well the main reason is that i wanna prove to myself that i can finance my life with online poker only and i dont have to be tight to places where is live poker only, so i can travel also to exotic locations and play from there,but there is also one huge reason - i have some big payment that i have to pay off by end of this year and i wanna be able to pay it off from just this challenge :f_thumbsup:

WHEN? from 27th of January till 1st of December

MY LIFE NOW: Im living in beautiful Marbella/Spain with my GF (in interview on pictures) and i have been live poker here in Marbella a lot ,but also around whole Spain. Both me and my GF we like to travell a lot and see different places , her job is in online marketing so she needs just computer and internet to be able to work (couldnt ask for better right?!) , so its much easier for us to travel.You might think that during my challege i wont be able to finance my life and also keep bankroll growing so dont worry i have passive income outside of poker so i dont need to finance my day to day life with poker money so its ok and i can keep focusing only on this challenge,but the passive income will end around end of 2019. Our rent in Marbella ends in June and we are probably going to go back for Summer to Slovakia and after that in winter we gonna travel somewhere else again. We will see what comes on :f_cool:

GOALS FOR 2018:
- make this challenge success
- get very good in PLO
- study more poker
- get in shape loose 15kg , currently at 102kg
- eat healthier
- in winter 2018 move to somewhere exotic for atleast 6months maybe even more ( costa rica?? panama?? thailand?? vietnam??)
- read more books
- spend waaaaay less time on social media (recently deleted myself from twitter and instagram)

I will be posting regulary in this blog ,but i also wanna start posting more in forums and get to know these people , i choosed this forum over other poker forums mainly because it seems to me that people are much friendlier here :f_thumbsup:

Also if is anyone currently located around Malaga/Marbella or even you guys in Gibraltar we can have a beer or whatever :f_drink:

I hope you guys will follow as much as you can and give me some good energy
If you have any questions just ask i will be more than happy to answer
Also if is anyone interested in study partner for PLO im here ready for it :f_thumbsup:

talk to you very soon i will post today my little goals for the rest of this month

CHALLENGE STARTS NOW !

Wish you the best and big mental strength. Starting to grind for seven hours a day and keeping the weight is already a demanding task. But losing 15% of the body weight during that time on top of that will be a taff job. So keep in mind mood swings will be perfectly fine.

And when I thought to travel to somewhere exotic I cam up with Spain... So enjoy your remaining six months there and make me jealous.

And again wish you the best and sending you the requested positive energy!
