i have a backup of hands, and older (1month) backup of whole base + notes. but since i play on 6 platforms its harder to keep track of who is who without the most recent notes and i ll rly miss them bigtime. I am buying hands for most of platforms for 6 limits everyday, am keeping data just newer than 3months, but even then the base exceeds 100GB at the end and is a bit slower.

i will just make some theretical reviews in the next 3 days and read some nonpoker book, also play some hopefully bigger cgs in Bratislava.

Also on thursday i will start going to English conversation lessons, hope to improve my everyday Eng, practice social skills, get some contacts. Tomorrow also starting to work out in gym again, but this time will keep it within a limited effort of just 2-3 of at most 60min trainings/week coz i dont want to be getting tired as i used to be in the past. I ll concentrate much more on endurance rather than strength.

oh, sick, we rly need a 3rd roommate. Ivan is just horrible. He has some 2part sleeping hours now: ~3PM- 7PM and then 2AM-5AM or sth like this. ?!

since mine are usually 5AM-12PM we havent essentially met last 2 days, i ve just seen him yesterday around 10PM when he was going out for his breakfast.. ?( so seems like i am going to have to organize my own schedule now.

we rly should go to Malta, i feel like if i earn at least some 100k more this year i am going to be strong up for that at least for a half year, but it has to have a 100m2+ and we have to have our own chef..


Do u really need English Conversatiopn lessons for improving ur English? Or it is jsut a cover and u want to improve just ur social skills? One dude told me that u attended a bilingual schoo(Is that school that bad or what? )l. and if u did, then u surely know that speaking to a non-native speaker is a waste of time if u wanna improve...

Oh well, I guess I have my own opinion on learning foreign languages... GL then if u rly want to improve ur English :f_grin:

the course is with a native speaker, and yea i had attended 2 bilingual schools indeed, but was quite some time ago and my vocab for describing pretty much anything concerning real life dropped to minimum (also in Slovak btw :P)

also, i prolly dont rly want to live in Slovakia for my lifetime and am thinking this would be more of a longrun investment also. From social perspective right there, hmmm... my beard is currently 5cm+ long so it might be a bit awkward, but i ll try :)


If it is w a native speaker then it is a good investment.
I have different problem, I cant describe things in Slovak (I use like words or smth) and I am able to describe stuff a lot better in English. I should take Slovak conversation course or smth

However, I think men cant really describe things that well no matter what ( at least thats my excuse) so I cant even imagine what u wanna know. Therefore I have no idea what do u mean by minimum. Are u able to use only Big, Small, Huge, Tiny, Fat, thin, thick (actually, I cant think of a Slvoak word for some of em right now ) or u wanna achieve smth more...? Nevertheless, native speaker will help u (Is it a Brit or an American? Is it in old town or isnt it by any chance in petrzalka?)

no idea if US or British, but it says native speaker.. judging from what teachers we had on high school and i know they worked here as well i d say its 80-20 for US.

oh, btw, good that i ve checked the site again, they postponed the first classes :)


SHould be fine, and yea, there is more Americans in Svk as far as I know
And Brits are not rly doing any after -school work cause they are here to drink (a friend of mine met few GB- professors in one club that is full of drunk teenagers so yea, there is bigger probability that u will have an American teacher (jsut hope it wont be an old one, they aint any good)

TLN i'm native English, I'd happily chat with you a bit on skype if you want to practice, you can teach me some of your language or something in return.

Just curious, can you know how much have you earned this year so far? And what do you think its a good year income for you and for cg pros in general ( that are playing nl400~nl2k and are really good)?

What site do you buy your hands from?
I'm buying some as well and get about 40k hands a day @ NL50 on iPoker. Looked a bit low to me so just wanted to know. Mind you at your stacks thats probably not comparable anyways.

@dubli: i dont think i can advertise any site here, the more not a pokersite, but it's the notoriously well known biggest provider..

@alverine: i think a very good plr on such lims is earning up to 500k/y. i ve seen graphs of 1mil, but those are extremely exceptional.

@ALL: PARTY IN OUR FLAT TOMORROW, 7.10., WITH A LOT OF ALCO AND STRATEGY DISCUSSIONS :)

all welcomed, should begin at ~7-8PM with going out to clubs later on, play some billiard, maybe dance a bit if in the mood. mainly just: spend a nice evening among friends socializing and strenghtening the bonds by liquor. We have: beer, wine, whisky, vodka..

add me on skype for more info and details.

People who have 1M a year play higher than 10/20 mostly. When you play 25/50 and 50/100 aswell you can make 1M a year without playing 10h/day, but you gotta run decent on the highest stakes and have a big WR ofc

There are few whose main is NL1k-2k and earn ~1mil, starting with Nano.. i am not a big follower of 2+2 and all the brag blogs, so i dont rly know, but i d be positive there are at least 5 more, who combine many platforms under different nicknames.

500k/year was way more than i expected.

I think for mtts only the top pros and lucky guys who ran hot can do more than 500k a year.
