Hi,

my name is Tomas and I suffer from schizoaffective disorder. to be honest, I always thought I am autistic, but doctors said otherwise - so schizoaffective disorder it is. I am 35 years old, from Slovakia. I started playing poker about 10 years ago, but became more serious about it maybe 3 years ago, after my mom died. I always thought about poker as a nice way of income, and, as I do not have a regular job, maybe the only way of additional income for me. see, employers do not particularly like guys like me, it is almost impossible for me to get a normal job. after my mom died, it became clear that I need to earn some money, as my disability pension is not high enough for me to survive. so I started to play poker. these past few months, I became more serious, as I want to earn enough money to visit my girlfriend in the Philippines again soon. I am traveling there most likely July this year.

so, results - the headline says 1.5k a month at nl5, right? impossible? no. I play at pokerstars and unibet at the same time, which means I play 4 tables of nl5 at pokerstars and 6 tables of nl4 at unibet, which are the table caps. I played like this for a while now, with an average of 80-100 hours a month. but this month, I went full time, which means I had this challenge, no days off, and 150 hours played. I succesfully completed both of them, having played 168.5 hours, and playing every day. during this time, I made almost 1.5k eur. 1480 eur, to be precise. profit including rakeback was 707 eur at pokerstars and 773 eur at unibet. I have thought about streaming, you can find me here:

https://www.twitch.tv/nabokowtv

I will show you some gameplay from my usual stakes, we re going to climb up to nl10-16 next month and hopefully crush it as well. just dont expect me to use a camera, as I am too shy for that as I ll be playing 10-12 tables, it would be impossible for me to properly react anyway. I usually play between 6pm and 2am CET.

for those who like graphs, here is one from pokerstars, sadly I am not able to track unibet, it is not supported by trackers.

Hi nabokow,
It's good to see a brand new blog — and a streamer too.
Be sure to post your streaming details in this thread: https://forums.pokerstrategy.com/forum/thread.php?postid=3035095#post3035095

I don't see anything wrong with your image, but I did remove the duplicate post.

All the best,
VS

Hi Thomas,

Nice graph man!! Although the - 1.5k in the title made me think you'd lost that much.. Very happy to see the graph going the other way!

Interested in watching you stream one day!

GL and keep crushing!

thank you guys for your kind words. goals for this month are 140 hours of playing and 28 hours of studying. the studying part will be hard, as I am very lazy. started this month with a little downswing over at unibet, but nothing serious. oh, and we hit 2 royal flushes last month, both of them were fully paid. how often does that happen? :f_cool:

i am truly interested in your approach when it comes to studying...

i guess you know who i am - we saw each other a lot at the NL5 ante tables at pokerstars.

Hi KenzoShagami,
Welcome to PokerStrategy.com EN forums :welcome:

I'm not sure it is possible for members with "basic" status to send or accept friend requests. I've asked the admins.

Please let me know if it works...
