Hey guys, poker wannabe pro and SS member here. After promotion to 7s I’ve decided that it should be good for me to start a blog. First of all I want to track my progress. I will be using baby steps because in my opinion it is the best strategy for me. Second of all I want to crush 100s spins someday and be filthy rich playing poker. Third of all I want to improve my English skills so I could communicate as fluently as native English speaker (or even better).

This blog won’t be interesting at all for anybody besides me. I will not post degen stories, nor real life issues. It will be just a notebook, with goals, some short thoughts and probably, from time to time, graphs. Let’s start with the goals.

Long-term goals:
_drink: become a winning player on 100s spins
_drink: become fulltime professional player
_drink: live like a baller with money from poker
_drink: travel around the world

Mid-term goals (2016):
_thumbsup: advance to 30s spins by the end of the year
_thumbsup: advance to the highest tennis league in my city

Short-term goals (this month):
:diamond: play at least 1200 spins
:diamond: 80cev/g
:diamond: 40 hours of learning

Weekly goals (12-18.09):
:club: play at least 380 spins
:club: 80cev/g
:club: 12 hours of learning (this week HU BB)
:club: review my notes daily
:club: start my meditation course
:club: at least 3x HH review minimum 1h long

The goals list above is not permanent, it will most likely get bigger and bigger. My plan is to play/learn 6 days a week, with poker-free Thursdays. I’m not sure about my performance with such a schedule but will find out soon. Getting to the optimal point will take some time, I’m ready for that.

I don't know who SPNB7771 is but hello SDK1987 :)

It's time for a little summary and it will not be good for me.

Weekly goals (12-18.09):
:club: play at least 380 spins 149/380
:club: 80cev/g 67cev/g
:club: 12 hours of learning (this week HU BB) done even though it was not only HU BB
:club: review my notes daily had lazy wednesday so...
:club: start my meditation course done
:club: at least 3x HH review minimum 1h long done

I'm a bit disappointed with myself, mostly because I was lazy at the beginning of the week and at wednesday. After that something bad happened in my family and I was totally off - could not focus on anything. I needed a week to recover. I've learned from first week that planning every day may be important for me because when I have 7 days procrastination kicks in. I was lazy in first days because in my mind I still had time to achieve my week goals. From now on I will plan every grind day, starting monday.
