Yeahhhhh ! join join join and have some fun!
On a serious note, I did some brainstormed of playing PLO fulltime when I talked to Ash, TT, R4z0r and other PLO people. It seems like a game of opportunity with high risk, high reward.
The math shows that with the std. dev, you can be way down while you should be way up or vice-versa. Not really healthy with my current volume discipline.
I played like 9k hands on my own limit this month! And that doesn't help the variance. I played 2 sessions out of those 9k hands that I played for sure my C-game OR B-game. The rest was for sure A-game because I was pounding on everyone!
I think it has to do because I am living in Northern Europe called Scandinavia now that I get more aggro on the table
3bet? 4bet!, 4bet? 5bet BAM!
Studying Poker was also fun this month. The times were I did not OR could not play, I either:
- Made videos/articles/helped my students out or
- Studied MSNL content
Particular the last part was interesting:
* Studied Niman's interesting hands + Questions from members (Mbml asked several questions too but I disagree with the CiB as bluff)
* Hunter Bick videos about almost everything including why we should pound & identify the bumhunters on 6max
* CTS' book study. More of a re-study but now with more detail, experience and hammerzeit
* Finished Peak perfomance poker
* re-reading DUCY? in the plane when I was travelling to Vienna & Holland ♦
* Discourses on Livy from Machiavelli. The Prince is more suitable for Poker players mindset but whatever I read that one already when I was 15 ♦
* Theme vids on Leggo ( Melvin if you read this... get Denny!!)
Ahwell I'm kinda busy overall with Poker & Real-Life, I didn't really expected this but it is kinda cool. I do have to think about my future as I have to have a Plan B incase I dont get admitted next year to the Business School I want..
I will look into another College in Dublin where you can still apply. I got solid credentials and the best mindset/motivation & attitude among those applicants for sure
I talked with my erasmus friend from spain a lot with this. I had a big list of ideas I want or could go next year all marked with either 2 =] till 2 =( smilies so I can see which one I really like or dislike.
Apparantly it really grasped my mind because I think it also influenced my pokergame as it was during the time I played my C-game for sure. bad timing or not. cold deck or not. I just was NOT in the zone
This feeling of uncertainty of ''what if'' just plainly sucks for something big as one year of academic studies for a 19yo. Sorry for you guys but I like to keep my wishlist confidential and only a fistful of friends know this list.
But I'm sure I will be allright. When I get knocked down, I just get up and knock him down ♠_cool:
C'est la vie!
