As i got back home from this winters asiatrip i got a cold and have been sick this whole year basically (100 day curse from hell). But i seem to start getting rid of it, finally! have been missing a couple of weeks workout so gonna compensate that by joining my partner in crime in thailand again for some training and chilling.
Its still semicold here in northeren sweden, the snow just melted away and its only topping at +10 degrees so im not missing out much on the spring in sweden. For this trip i plan only to be away 3-4weeks and get back home to a swedish summer and eurocup 2012 (go sweden yey we made the qualification) wich i look forward to alot, gonna be an epic summer hopefully!
Muay thai training camp!
The place we are gonna train at is located in phuket, 15min taxi from patong and is supposed to be one of thailands best trainingcamps
( http://www.tigermuaythai.com/ ) the goal is to do 2 workous/day for the whole month. gonna be really nice to get back to working out again and try some muay thai. have been interested in starting some sort of mma:ish training for a while now and living nearby the campsite (2 min walk from hotel according to my friend that already is there since a couple of days ago) and go there everyday to book privatelessons aswell as grouptraining is gonna be a nice push to get into more intense workouts (still have sucky cardio). also doing it all with a friend is gonna help for motivation etc too.
heres alittle videotour on the camp
booked flight next monday, may 14th and will go back in beginning of june.
Poker
As for poker i feel i need this aswell, have been downswonging some lately on 25/50$ shots as some of u guys know already and im back down to grinding out 5/10 and hopefully 10/20 again soon enough and i feel i lack motivation in grinding when i cant split up my roll as much with not to many games running most of the time, i did the classic longplemistake wasteing almost all of my $'sl on shots last couple of months playing both SH and mutlitable HU games at the same time and im gonna look to only play SH next time i take shots as the swings in HU is just to great for me to take shots in it without feeling bad when failing, unless i wanna grind up a million BI roll on 5/10 10/20 beforehand. (wich i will kinda try to do for next shots aswell)
allthough i feel that ive played my best poker during these shots and ive gotten a decent amount of volume in during march/april on 25/50$ and i know that i beat those games and most of those guys, its just a matter of time and dicipline and better running
as for recovery ive played some 2/4-5/10€ games alongside with the swedish site svenskaspel as those games are very faimliar to me even tho it rarely runs to many games, but some evenings u can get 4-5 25/50sek games running and maybe even some 50/100sek (4/8$ and 8/16$) but most nights ur stuck playing 2 tables or so.
i have trouble to put in as much volume as i would like to after busting both my stars and ongame roll + getting easily bored/annoyed still after wasteing so much that i cant even take 10/20$ games anymore on the networks that id like to, stars/ongame etc. so going to thailand focusing more on health again and less grind will hopefully get me a refreshed mindset on grinding my way back again (even tho ive been doing well recovering so far)
April results:
peaked at +120k$ in beginning of april but ended up down 50k$ or so total
$ sites:
SEK:
also lost 10k$ live + some in stakeing/% buys etc etc
The 120k$ profit heater in the start of the month was all <25/50$ and down, kind of a repeat of march ^^ heater up 100k$ on <25/50 and wasteing all profits there, boom!
Busted stars and ongameroll due to takeing the shot to far left me with less options, started a small roll going on a € site at the end of april and have been doing good there, playing 2/4-5/10€
The plan
so the plan is to obviously continue grinding in thai, at a more chillaxed rate, take some games here and there but basically only take soft games and not worry about it to much, because i still feel like playing higher then i should, and thats, as Daut putted it: BAD LONGPLE, BAD! And when i get back im gonna be pumped to play again and hopefully by then ive won some more on the € site so i can get a starsroll going again and be more motivated in putting volume on 5/10 10/20, and soon ill attack them 25/50$ games again, but with a little better approach next time
Gay stuff
friend linked me this video, its all gay etc etc but it was still a nice motivational video imo and it made me alittle happier inside
now ive been laying on my couch snoring all over the place for to long, its time to get back on the regiment!
i just wanna try it out and get some ground for maybe future training at home, but i go mostly to work on my cardio and motivation / get away from some things in life + pokerstress
allthough i just realised im gonna miss the D3 release
Ive played like 50-60k hands allready around 5/10ish in softer games and are up a decent amount actually. Im gonna get into plo more later as my br gets bigger and im up fightIng more regulary on 25/50$. After talking it over alot with others i feel that is my best option as i feel so ahead at NLi gotta focus on makeing Money before going into plo more seriously
