Some sad news + going back home.
  longple, Dec 30 2011

Everything packed, leaving for sweden alittle bit earlier then we planned, tomorrow, we payed for the apparment in phuket for january but me and my fellow (poker) travelingpartner got alot of homesickness + we got some very tragic news on chirstmas eve as we got back home to our room on ko lanta (paradise/weed island outside of phuket) and since then we just didnt feel the same about the trip.

About 5 swedish pokerplayers had tryed to contact us on xmas eve, and i called one of them up and e got the terrible news of that one of our traveling friends (swedish, maybe u heard about it on the news / on 2+2) whom we lived with for 3 weeks in bali was found dead on his hotelroom from a fire in the room.

We couldnt believe it, everything just stood still for a while and all i could think of was that we were jokeing on christmasmorning as we read the news in swedish newspaper "young man found dead on bali" and we were kinda laughing and saying "haha its probably "J" that sicko" or something along those lines....

Very intellectual, atletic, kind guy. Very successfull in everything basically, inclueding poker, achieved way more then myself pokerwise, and only at the age of 20. Pure talent

We were 4 ppl starting out together in bali, but the internet was so bad and me and my "main" traveling buddy felt the need to move to thailand (read older blog) to get better internet for grinding, while the other 2 were gonna stay for another 3-4 weeks or so and then join us for new years in koh pangang for the famous full moon party.

The 3rd person in the "group" joined up with us on dec 16 and stayed in our appartment for a couple of nights as he already had booked his flight to phuket, while "J" where staying on his own in bali for another week or so before joining up in thailand, and then this happends. On christmas.

So no fullmoonparty for any of us this year. The 3rd person who were very close with "J" insta booked his flight home, and we now feel kinda the same way. We were still planning on staying for another month, but the sadnews just made the homesickness to strong, we just wanna get back home. And i miss my friends and family so fkin much atm.

Sorry to bring this news to you all during these "happy" times of the year with new years comeing up and everything. But i wanted to write something about him.

All thoughts and love goes out to his closer friends and family.

Im not a believer, but if there is a heaven he sure deserves to go there.

Im happy i got the opportunity to get to know you

R.I.P - J <3

Featured blog, big update
  longple, Dec 11 2011

Ok, so i got featured blog thingy here on LP, and have been thinking of writing something up for some time now on how things are in asia etc, lifewise/pokerwise.



ill start off with the bad news, im kinda busto, it all happened really fast frmo me haveing alot of bad shots/bad months before i went on the trip, and then in bali me and my travelingfriend (good player atleast same caliber as myself) decided to share profits and just mass volume, just to keep both from us from playing the same tables + taking more fish/less variance etc

but it was doomed, he went on the biggest downswing ever, and after losing a ton of money we kinda decided to just stop the company because it made both of us feel very stressed since my roll wasnt as big anymore + him loseing so much he felt like crap and played worse by it aswell, so i had to ship him like 50%+ of my roll

and after that i just kinda didnt have the diciplin to move down stakes/been running bad at the good higher games vs big fish + spending a ton of money on the trip/hotels/roomservice etc etc ballin etc

so what are my options? well, first off i paniced and deposited like my "last" 8k$ i could spare on ongame to 14 table 1/2$ and did that for a couple of days, and it went fine, i played well and were running at 7bb/100 over 15k hands

then daut contacted me and we talked it all over and i got a nutstake from him basically on stars, wich is supergood for me atm since im in thailand, and the EU sites dosnt run many games daytime anyways, on stars i can play 24/7 and now being on stake i can continue liveing my life as normal for the rest of the trip without any risks

so ull see me in the starsgames for quite some time probably

ive been fortunate enough to catch a decent heater in the beginning since regs arent used to playing smoe1 playing as loose and wierd as me they are just spazzing off money to me basically

results so far since stake:



been playing 2/4-5/10 and trying to get deep tables going, with bad results, no one wants to play, but i got action by a bad reg (Faiv) today HU on 3/6 deep and ended up taking 4.5k from him on 1 table so that was sweet

hopefully can get more deep games going in the future, but my 100bb game feels pretty good atm aswell

anyways, even if this stake wouldnt work out, i would instaget good stakedeals/burrows from friends as soon as i get home to grind my bread and butter swedishsitegames, but for now, me and my traveling partner both share that site + that im alittle busto now getting this stake on stars by daut is supersupergood, im very happy for it <3 much love man


over to the traveling, we started off spending 2 weeks in Bali but the internet was supercrappy there so we went to phuket in thailand instead and have been here for about 3 weeks now, the first week or so we stayed at 5star serenity hotel, (following the advice roman on LP gave me in my prev blogpost and as he said the internet there was good)

but we left it due to its high expences with roomservice etcetc and have now found a supernice appartment a bit outside patong.

its 1/3 as cheap, and double the space and very fresh, and we got a gym/pool etc close to everything so its a nutplace really happy we got it.

we moved in here december first and will be staying here until february 1st, wich is when i probably will be going hmoe to sweden again (i miss all my friends )


anyways, TLDR to the pics shall we!


(the first grindstation (only place where internet worked alittle bit ~0.3mbit/sec at our first hotel)


(me gayposeing at kutabeach at sunset, still Bali)


(switching hotel to a nicer one, called the Radiant, some decent priced 4 star that promised high speed internet, they did not have but could grind at some hours, but very unstable, but got in decent volume)


(radiant were very nice tho, and felt like we were the only ones liveing there, had some pretty sweet shroom trips on that hotel very beautiful and relaxing place)


(most random thing ever hanging outside of the restaurant at radiant, rofl thread material almost, epic)


(i also bought a guitar wich was a great idea, havent played much at all the last years (played since i was 7 and probably where better when i was 11 then i am now, but its nice to have something else to grind then the pokers, learned how to play hotelcalifornia and stairway to heaven so far, close to the original versions, but had to do some deviations from it to be able to multitask enough to get the lyrics right aswell, especially on hotel california, but feels good to started up the musica again!)


(visited a sick temple in the jungle/mountains of bali wich was pretty intresting, my traveling partner on pic)


(we also drove by some village up in the jungle and looked at a volcano, (behind me, yes me on pic))




(on our way to thailand, sign got my attention, "fisk" means fish in swedish lol)


(insta started the grind for about 12 hours in a row as soon as we got to the hotel in phuket lol, finally good stable internet again)


(me giveing the moment an thumbs up sign of approval)


(went out on a "date" with one of the waitresses, very cute and smart girl, decent english and not some random hooker so thats nice, have met her a couple of times since, shes nice but probably in love with me wich sux balls to kinda have to break her heart as i go home)


(view from the hotel, pretty nice, and the tidewater goes all the way up at night)


(enterence to our appartmentbuilding the hindu god ganesha, "for good luck and fortune, protector of bad luck" wich was a great sign pokerwise i guess)

a couple of appartmentpics to come:






(have to share bed with my partener in crime for a month more, get a 2 bed roomer in january lol, gonna be so nice to finally not have some dudes ass in ur face when u wake up)



a couple of days ago we did a trip to ko lanta (outside of phi phi island, google for more sickness) to just relax and get away frmo the grind for a while and smoke some weed etc








as for the trip overall, we havent done much drugs/partying overall, we wanted this to be a healthy grindtrip, and its been awesome so far, have been working out 5 times/week following a great workoutprogram for 3 weeks now and it feels great, have been gaining about 20kg since i started playing poker, so it feels great getting back in shape again

have lost about 7kg so far, asia is the nuts for loseing weight, and have been already after 3 weeks been getting alot of great results from the training so everything feels wonderful

will schock ppl as i get hmoe in 6 weeks all negro and ripped

everything is gold except for the unfortunate bust, but thats kinda how i roll, i lost a big part on ongame taking a 25/50 and 50/100$ shot, and after that just kinda had bad timeings and some stupidity i guess.

but im superglad the stake have been starting off well, will be back in no time for sure!


hope everything is well and that it was a (y) read for the guys who read it all, ty for reading see ya soon and keep checking in on my hands in the handsection for some entertaining standard swedishness

my stats for the intrested
  longple, Dec 04 2011

i sent my stats to a student so i figured what evs can post them here

i dont have large samples on the sites u play on, and this is 5max and 200bb deep atleast against 50% of the regs there buy in deep, but might be interested for some atleast

after talking to the student and from playing on stars the last days is what i noticed is that (probably) the most of you need to be opening way more buttons

from playing on stars a couple of days i saw guys on 2/4 opening more in SB 6handed then on the BU and were still big winners, i mean wtf?

open SB's against weak players but as aejones said one time was that against a very though reg BvB he is on the border if he even wanna open ATo, and that says alot about alot of you robots opening 45% in the SB no matter what

dont open 50% in the SB against every1, and dont raise 40% of BU's lol, go atleast over 50% from the BU and maybe 25% SB against though regs and against some nitregs u can go 80% probably (same goes for nitregs in blinds open 100% BU)


anyways, here are my stats, the first stats from reports are from the last 4 months as ive done some adjustments with my 4betting/folding to 3bets and raise first in ranges, the hudpop up are frmo all SH hands this year (filtered to more then 2 players, aka 3player+)

and remember its also 5max so the games plays alittle more aggro

+ Show Spoiler +



and ye i know that some of the regs i battle on a daily basis are ninjareading this blog, but i dont cares, gonna eat ya anyways! blinking smiley face

update, new setup :)
  longple, Sep 12 2011

bought myself a new grinddesk + 30'' monitor.

its huuuuge and 2560x1600 is sick nice, no more overlapping ever again while grindin!


http://www.dustinhome.se/product/5010483369


before just my 23''




after 23'' + 30'' + desk


also got myself a new couch, wich is sick nice, this room is now complete!



so how is everything otherwise? everything is great, last month was very nice pokerwise + i squeezed in a vacation to malta (island outside of italy) for 8 days together with a frind, visiting her brother+girlfrind who lives there fulltime nowadays. he had a really nice appartment with plenty of space for the 4 of us.

it was a nice trip, did some scubadiving for the first time in my life wich was ubernice. we also went to this sick place called st. peter's pool wich had this really cool cliffs / crystal clearwaterpool with caves under the cliffs, wich was nice jumping from ~5-8 meters maybe and a cool feeling with the big caves underneath.

other then that we just kinda chilled around in the sun/partying/ate supernice food.


imba rib-plate


just havin a chillnight at the appartment terass with some wine/cheese/crackers etc (me on pic, laazydrunkeyes ftw)


650gram t-bone!




prolly the sickest pizza ive ever had, it was reaaaally good








scubadiveing!


really nice trip overall, didnt play more then 40k hands that month, but still ended really nice

pokerwise in september has been interesting, started + 40k$ after the first week, had 14k$ on stars even after messing around with 1000$ there, but i busted it all on 10/20$ later in a session from hell, where i lost 14k$ on stars and another 20k$ on other sites. was brutal

just came home from stockholm, and some livepoker, wich also was bad, lost about 10k$ in really great games so kinda evened out the good start of the month, and im about breakeven for the month atm, but its 3 weeks to go, and with my new grindsetup i intend to put in alot of volume september/october

becaaaaaaaaaaaaause



in the end of october me and 2 other swedish highstakes friends are moveing to bali (indonesia, asia) over the winter, and im really looking forward to it.

we probably will stay there for about 2-5 months depending on how everything feels etc maybe move on to malaysia or macao for awhile after some time.

so im gonna grind like crazy before that, its gonna be superfun. my first "longterm" trip outside of sweden, so im excited

take care and gl guys!

and a special gl to the MTTbeast player999 and every1 includeing myself who have % in him in the upcomeing WCOOP tournaments <3 make me/us/yourself rich!

Coaching
  longple, Sep 01 2011

ok after i released my video (can be found here) ive done some freecoachingsessions with a couple of lp'rs to kinda get into the whole talking in englishwhilecoaching-thing and it feels pretty natural, i even tend to talk to much

ive done coaching in swedish before but the guys from LP that ive coached for free for a couple of sessions so far is Stroggoz, Highcard and Surprise and they all seem happy with the coaching, i asked them what they thought about the sessions to post their comments here but they all said such nice things it got kinda gay they can feel free to comment on the blogpost instead if they feel like they want to add anything!

but i think they really are happy with the sessions, and it felt great as a coach to feel appriciated and helpfull, and i found out i had more pointers/things to say then i thought i would

so i feel ready to take some students

my hourly this year is ~200$ and i feel like thats a good price for the guys over 200NL, if im getting a ton of interest and as time goes i might charge more as i evolve as a coach

but for now 200$ feels like a good price

and i kinda enjoyed haveing the session with surprise after all, since he is a microstakes player, it felt great to be able to help out with so much so im probably gonna be open to some smallerstakes players aswell even though i know ive said before that i dont want to coach people under 100NL as they can probably get the same help cheaper from other smallerstakescoaches

so i will atleast open myself for applications from smallerstakes guys, and ill charge 150$ for 100NL or under

with my coaching u will also be able to talk over hands when i got time on skype etc, and i think "my students" so far can give a +1 on this that ill be glad to help with questions on the side of the coachingsession

more information about me can be found deeper in this blog for those who want to find out more, its cool to ask aswell



on a sidenote, i also want to get PLO coaching from some1 good, im willing to pay a decent price for maybe a couple of hours sweat from a highstakeswinner, so PM me if ur up for it, prefered to be familiar with highstakesdeep aggro dynamics, as the games i play PLO now in easily gets 400bb deep, and are superaggro i want a coach who can handle that

as for results this month, month has been pretty good

+ Show Spoiler +



35k$, and up ~6k€ ~8k$ on an italian site i play on

looking to start more grind on ongame in the future as 5/10$ action seems sick good there

43k$ month feels good in just 40k hands, normally i play 60k ish hands/month, so feels nice to book a nice one even tho ive played alittle less due to travels etc

(took scubadiving certificate this month, was awesome)




so cliffnotes:

200NL+: 200$
100NL<: 150$


(prices are for 1 hour)


hope to hear from you all!

cheers

(edit i changed it to 150$ for 100nl and down instead of 100$ for 25nl'rs, i just felt that 100$ would be to cheap as its half of my hourly)
