hey ladies!

just realised that this blog is 1 year now, has 100 pages and more than 100k views.

might be a good spot to review the last year: so some questions for u:

:diamond: u think this blog is entertaining / worth reading on a regular basis?

:diamond: what image u think am i transferring? i hope my image is not that i am brainlessly partying all the time. im actually a hard worker aiming for world domination :f_grin: but yeah, i also like partying like a monkey :f_love:

:diamond: what did u like/dislike last 100 pages?

any comments or feedback appreciated. im not a blogging pro. i just use it as a way to get in contact with ppl, share my experiences and do some self reflection on a regular/almost daily basis.

to end this post, let's turn to some serious stuff:

BLACK MEMBER PARTY LEIPZIG starts tomorrow!! wohoooooooooooo!!!

1) def. entertaining - more pwning stuff plz

  • Sick hands please more, and more holdem hands, PLO is ofc. crazy, but most of us dont get whole point of hand, because we dont know much about PLO, so more sick holdem (and also PLO) hands
  • I know that its wrong to be result oriented, but its really inspiration when you post sick graphs, so- more sick graphs, its inspiration to learn more, overall we all play because of money. And also sick bad graphs, how sick can be variance and so on, good to look and think, yeah its not downswing what i have now
  • MORE MUSIC MOREEEEEEEEEE
  • More pics/info about poker life (i mean your traveling and so on, partying, casino visitings), its really inspiration, because most ppl (at least me:D) dreaming life as this, and when you blogging it like "normal" person, then we have hope and we learn more and so on ;)

2)balla balla:D you transferring that image what we need, hard worker and you enjoy results what you get because hard work ;)

3)Topic is TLN and TT, i havent seen here a long time any TLN post like blogging, TLN post another (really intresting) blog, and i think isnt it time to change name??

overall really intresting stuff for me (maybe because i know you aswell in real life, but im sure its intresting blog of most PS forum active members.

Keep it going :f_biggrin:
More sick mindfucker stuff _thumbsup:

Simo - Your fan nr1 :f_biggrin:

But thats very very very personal and I know how much of aditional effort you must put in when you are moving up and playing really hard stakes, and you dont want that for your life to be the best poker pro and giveaway freedom to pursue this objective, but you have shown to us that you are capable to succeed if you want to follow that path.

Blog is really awesome, and when you post some self reflections its just... THE nuuuutzzzzz. I mean, as you said, your mindset is worldclass, and you are wrong about the 2%. I think its more like 0.02% that have a better mindset.

About the graph, I think its better to keep how it is. This blogs reminds me that we are just gambling chips and messing with numbers. :f_p:

I think more pics of party and stuff like that would be my only request. The first few pages there were a lot pictures of parties and you just saying what happened and it was so cool. OFC there was TLN there playing with all the details, because you were never the guy who were saying the details, but dunno.

When are you coming to Brazzzziilllll????

Well I'm quite sure that people aren't reading this everyday because they are bored.

I personally like reading about you work ethic/higher stakes pwnage. My understanding is that you basically learned poker, played some, worked a lot on your game and are now playing NL400-NL1k+. I hope I don't offend you in saying your probably just a fairly normal guy?! It's quite an inspiring story for people wanting to take poker more seriously.

The music videos are cool too.

Have an awesome time at BMP, the city looks very beautiful.

Keep this blog as it is, it is very inspiring.

I like your attitude towards poker and as you said you have a very good mindset that we should all look to get. I am a big fan of your way of thinking so keep sharing this with us.

Entertaining of course when you post your sick hands.

Keep up the good work!

Feedback? Okay, feedback.

What I like:

Insights into professional poker mindset. Whilst I think you still have some work to do, in the main your mindset and your insights into the mindset required to really make it in this game are brilliant. Not groundbreaking, not original, not unique, but well constructed and well articulated.

Inspiration. Noone reading this blog can be anything other than inspired by the possibilities of what a poker lifestyle, well lived, can offer.

Hand analysis. Given that hand analysis is always somewhat subjective, the hand posted and the reads revealed are always entertaining and inspiring. I wouldn't change a thing.

What I don't like. Really, the only criticism I can offer is the likehood that newer readers reading your blog may consider that your outstanding results are possible without a massive amount of hard work, hand analysis and study. Even though you allude to this reasonably frequently, your results and your style are hard to align. For a newer reader or someone not familiar with the realities of poker it can seem that rewards are possible without huge amounts of commitment and lots of partying. Now I know you try to present a different picture, but reality is, a lot of your readers will ignore the posts about how much work you put in, and spend more time focusing on how awesome your results are. This is clearly more a failure of theirs than your blog, but I suggest it is a reality none the less.

I never feel what I read in this blog is groundbreaking, but I always feel what I read in this blog is worthy of assimilation and action. You, sir, are an example as to what is possible. Long may your attitude and enthusiasm remain.

Thank you, sir!

Yours always as a humble reader.

Waiboy.

you know its 2010, you need to upgrade to video blogging already.
current blog content by itself is sick enough already, are you trying to fish for compliments?? :f_p: :f_p:

on a serious note, just keep blogging on like this, you inspire someone new everyday :)

hi TwiceT

i regularly read your blog and tbh this is one of the best blogs ive ever read!

i never posted before but now i saw that u r looking for some feedback and i decided to post.

i find this blog really entertaining and because of this reason i read it almost every day. _love:

my opinion for u is that you are a sick grinder, sick party animal, sick person! keep it up like that! u r just the person who i want to be in sth like 5 years.

the thing i like most in this blog is that its not boring full of hands/strategies only (mostly like mine) or just life expirience/small talks but it has a little of all of this!

so keep it up like that.

Best, Plamen.

thnx 4 feedback guys, will comment on it on monday.

for now, i need your help - FAST

atm at black member party as u might know:

pokerstars (sponsor of the event here) offers one seat for EPT Vienna for participating black members here and since im from vienna and wanna pwn the trny i'm definitely gonna try to win this seat _cool: )

challenge: we have to record a video message (30 seconds!!), convincing ppl (i think every community can vote then) why we should be picked for this 1 free seat.
ept vienna buy-in is 5k€, so ofc, 5k would be great.

@ language: pokerstars ppl said, it should be mother tongue, so german in my case. im still not sure if english mightbe better cuz most of my competitors will speak german + i have way more friends in engl. community. however, i think engl. community might even vote for me if i speak german + likelihood of getting votes from german community is way bigger if i speak german

@ content: what should i talk about??? i mean, i just have 30 secs. im already drunk, but still sober enough to talk properly. i could slow down drinking a bit at dinner, so i mightbe able for very solid 30 secs speech. however, maybe 30 seconds completely drunk random trash talk is better?!

what u guys think? what line should i take?

its 8 pm right now, dinner starts in some mins. at 11pm, so in 3 hours, the recording starts. im rly thankful for any input and idea.

willl crush ps office here at hotel at around 10pm again, so u guys have 2 hours to ship some ideas :f_p:

thnxalot, now off to dinner :f_love:
