    Sunday 24th 

    No hands played.

    4.5 mile morning walk was followed by a 4.5 hour afternoon 'nap'.

    What's the line for when a nap becomes something more than a nap? 

    Is there a word for a kip that's between a nap and a full on sleep?

    There should be. 

    Slap maybe. 

    Monday 25th

    No hands played.

    No exercise done. 

    The full day spent aching. 

    And moaning about aching. 

    Today

    3.2 miles walked this morning. 

    I've set a really stiff volume goal for myself. 

    I need to play another 21,674 hands to reach 100,000 hands @ 10nl on partypoker. 

    I'm going to aim to do this before the end of January (or at least before bedtime on Sunday night, which may need to become Monday Morning!). 

    @ a modest 500 hands an hour it'll take me 43 hours, which is over 7 hours a day for 6 days in a row. 

    It's a massive task for me, and will rely on health consistancy over a 6 day period rather than the 1/2 day challenges I've previously set, but it's another step forward and a challenge I feel is worth the time and effort. 

    And hopefully I will make a few Bob out of it too. 

    ----

    At Sunday league this weekend I came accross probably the oldest ref (or at least the oldest looking ref) I've ever seen. 

    They say to be good at something you have to have a genuine love and passion for what it is that you're doing. 

    There's no doubt this chap has plenty of that. 

    What a legend. 

    I would've got a better picture, but, maybe unsurprisingly given he looks about 116 years old, he didn't venture outside of the centre circle very often. 

    ----

    Grind (justifiable use of the word this time, in my opinion :P) On...........

    Don't think a "nap" can be longer than an hour or 90 minutes tops.

    4.5 hours is not a nap - that's a whole night's sleep for me. I generally go to bed at around 0030, & get up at 5am.
     
    I do have a nap, aka "gym session" every afternoon, usually about an hour though.
     
    Gawd knows what I'll do when I get old.

    As beginnings to new challenges go, this one couldn't have gone much worse. 

    I played really really bad.

    I ran pretty bad. 

    And to compound the negative emotions caused by the above, my internet decided to be very temporamental. 

    The 1 positive is I hit the required hands for the day. 

    But I wanted to get way ahead to buy myself some time over the next 5 days if I should have a bad day, either through tiredness or tilt or doing other things, or whatever. 


    The graph actually looks better than it was. 

    Due to constant interruptions, my tracker was stopping and starting alot, and it takes a while to get going. 

    It must've missed ~ 150 hands during the day, and they were not favourable ones for me. 

    Actual loss was -£29.67 = $42 ughhhh 

    Roll = £1479.33

    Challenge hands played = 3,452.

    Left to play = 18,222

    = 3,644 hands per day for the next 5 days. 

    ----

    May play abit more if my connection picks up and add them to tomorrows count. 

    Things can only get better.

    DIG IN ! 


  • edited January 2016

    An hour of zoom/rush/snap/fastfold/manic button mashing, whatever you want to call it and I like poker again. 

    Connection held, (some) hands held, and all the frustrations of earlier in the day have been dispelled. 

    +$30 

    = +£21.08

    Making the new figures for the day ...

    - £8.59

    Hands played = 4,268.

    Roll = £1500.41.

    That feels alot better!

    Bring on tomorrow.

    300 hands ago I was cruising through to the end of the session drafting this post in my head, "why can't poker always be like this?"

    Roll on half an hour and I've come off tilting my nackers off. 

    It's ridiculous that I can have a day as good as that, yet come off feeling so negative. 

    Really does kill me losing big pots, I can't put it into words. 

    It's clearly not the money, I don't know what it is. But I need to do summat about it. 

    Always striving for the perfect session, and I thought I had it today.

    Maybe the way the hand played out had something to do with it.

    Might have been a good day overall on the felt (although it doesn't feel like it right now) but into each life, some rain must fall.

    I renewed 'eleven' at the library as I have been lazy and neglected the reading recently (going to fix that before bed)

    Whilst I was there I asked about Candide. 

    They didn't have it. 

    Wiiiiiii

    But the library in the neighbouring village do, and they can order it in. 

    Sigh. 

    Can't get out of it now :/

    A real slog of a day. 

    "Mid challenge lul" 

    The tables were as bad as I can remember. 

    I'm not going to sl ag tight players off, I quite enjoy playing them now. 

    But when the tables are full of really solid nitty shortstackers who (to my untrained eye at least) are playing next to perfect shortstack strategy, playing 20-30xbb stacks and leaving as soon as they double up, it doesn't half make it tedious. 

    I think it's coming towards the end of an affiliate rake race, so I think they're in for the weekend. 

    Joy. 

    A real exercise in self discipline and concentration.

    ----

    2 week weigh in on the attempt to get slightly less fat. 

    Lost another 2 lbs, making it 7lbs for the month. 

    First exercise for a few days tomorrow with a long early morning walk, and then a late night battling it out with these shortstacking Polish f k ers. 

    Bring it on.

    Alot more fun today. 

    Maybe this thread is big in Poland and they were offended by my comments. 

    Or maybe I just ran better with table draws.  (no table selection on bwin)

    Either way they came after me today! 

    Friday night punters may have helped the enjoyment levels a bit too. 

    ----


    So close to the magical 10 buyin day. 

    But I was getting v close to a brain explosion too, and it's nice to finish with the line going up for once. 

    That "feel good" end to the grind is worth a few bucks in itself. 

    Lots and lots of interesting hands I could post, some really big and maybe bad folds. It seems that this skill of laying down seemingly unfoldable hands is essential to be successful in these games nowardays.

    Thoroughly enjoyed it, I thiought it'd be a real slog but for the most part I found it really easy to grind for long periods. 

    If I wasn't at the quacks first thing I'd probably still be grinding now. 

    Focus this week goes back to exercise, what with the poker challenge, the horrible weather and me being lazy I haven't done any since Monday. 

    Even the fitness app I downlioaded sent me a notification today basically asking me where I've been and calling me a fat tw @. 

    Surprisingly accurate programme. 

    -----

    Rake race is over on bwin now (although there's probably another 1 starting tomorrow, yawn) so the action should be good this week. Looking forward to getting back on the tables again tomorrow. <3 the game. <3 being able to play the game properly again.

    Ola. 

    After a day off yesterday I'm back on the baze today. 

    I've decided to stop posting results in here and telling friends/family about them for a month to see how it goes. 

    It's clear 1 of my many mental leaks when it comes to poker is being overly concerned and proud of my results, which has the unfortunate effect of making this thread brag city when it goes well, and miserable f*ker central when it doesn't. 

    I'm very proud of my results and I make no apologies for being so (I think everyone should be, it's a difficult game!) but the focus on documenting such things has and will continue to negatively effect my progression. 

    So lets see how the month goes without any mention of them. 

    I'm not quite going into 'lockdown' Lambo style, but I'm hoping to keep enjoying the game and therefore playing alot of hands. 

    I don't want to come accross as after-timing, so I'll post this mornings results from a session I played before I made the above decision. 

    Hands played = 1,150

    P/L = Minus £6

    Roll going into the media blackout :D = £1695. 

    Hope everyone has an enjoyable and profitable Feb, cya on't other side.

    Short term results are largely irrelevant so probably a good decision.

    looking forward to some cricket tips and book reviews to compensate.

    Well after an agonising weeklong wait, the library called to tell me that Candide had arrived and was waiting for me. 

    I couldn't contain my excitement!


    First impressions were really good, mainly because it was alot smaller than I'd imagined, if it's good I could wizz through this within a few days. 

    But they say you should never judge a book by its cover.

    This. :/ 

    ----

    A week into the February results blackout and it feels like it was a good decision. 

    Playing without results pressure is a pretty big deal, I wouldn't say it's the best thing I've ever done, that'd be unfair on my ex, coc aine and the West Street pub crawl, but it's up there. 

    Health was really good to start the month.

    So much so I had the confidence to last through a small MTT session. 

    And won 1! 


    That was pretty cool, as I havent won (or really played) an mtt for about 9 months. 

    I've been feeling pretty cra ppy of late though, I think I got abit over-confident that the health had turned round for good and the fatigue Gods didn't like it, so they've punished me. 

    Still had decent volume over the weekend , and a profitable month so far(full figures to come at end of Feb).

    ----

    Feb favourites. 

    Homeland. - Early days, but great start to the first series. 

    Tesco Mexican Chilli Bean Soup - 'The' best soup in the World ainec  

    Cammomile Tea - It seems to have improved the quality of my sleep despite tasting like daffodil infused dishwater. 

     - Probably my new alltime favourite twitch channel. High stakes mtts/sngs (up to $5k buyin). Awesome entertainment and education combo, for free. 

    -----

    GL all punting this week.

    I remember playing 3 handed in the 2.20 @ 2.20 with Wacko about 4 years ago when no1 had heard of him, he was crazzzyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy aggressive!

    Who knew he'd go on to be such a poker boss!

    Imagine loving the game as much as he must do <3

    Lucy7777777 was the head promoter of the deepy back then. Absolute greatest of all time forum member imo.

    My brother was the 1 who picked the book up for me. 

    "Hey JJ on the way home I started reading that book you ordered and it's brilliant, I can't put it down"

    "really?"

    "yea I got to page 18 before I even got home"

    "are you being serious?"

    "yes it's awesome I'll have to have it after you"

    "it sounds like you're taking the pi ss"

    "I'm not, but your pal who reccommended it was"

    Alrite readers. 

    So, the plan for this month was to stay away from posting results, either in here, to friends, talking about it to family etc etc. 

    And so far, so good. 

    Until now. 

    I've barely played for the last week. 

    Health has taken a real downturn so even when I've tried to play I've been well below 100% and it's resulted in short stagnated sessions and alot of poor play.

    As a result of that I've decided to go ahead and post my results for the month so far, in attempt to 'whipe the slate clean' heading into the weekend, as I've started to feel better today and I'm hoping it continues and allows me to get grinding again. 


    I realise people may not care btw. 

    But I do. 

    And when it's my damaged poker brain that's got to try and focus as best as possible in games, that matters above all else.

    10nl cash = +£146.45
    Other stuff (the 1 mtt night and a few small stakes hypers) = +£82.51  

    Total for Feb = +£228.96

    Overall challenge bankroll  = £1923.96

    I am a gnats bol lack away from a €40 rakeback payment too. 

    -----

    The life improvements still going pretty well. increasing the exercise intensity and continuing with the healthy eating. 

    I've lost just over a stone now in 6 weeks. 

    Gave into temptation at snooker last week and sunk a few beers. By a few I mean 5. ayahhh. 

    I needed it with the way I was playing, embarrassing at times. 

    I don't know if I can still claim to be off drink after that but if it's within the rules, it's been over 9 months now since I last got bladdered. 

    ------

    I hope everyone is having a storming Feb, gl closing it out on a high.

    Hello. 

    gg Feb. 

    The 2nd half of the month (since the last ^^update^^^) has been a real struggle at the cash tables.

    The games have been really ugly, lots of solid shortstackers and (imo at least) pretty good 100xbb stackers. 

    Wish everyone remotely competent would just fo and let me play against all the fish on my own. 


    It's the first real prolongued period of downwardness I've had in 150k hands. 

    It's not fun going from 'printing' to suddenly out of nowhere hitting a 20 buyin 'DONswing', so it led me away to other formats to break up the 'grind'. 

    Hu hypers have  gone well, winning 29 out of 45 games at $3.50 for a profit of +39.70.

    Those results are heavily influenced by playing some Canadian meat head 20 times in a row. 

    I have a picture of a pretty girl as my stars avatar who this chap took a liking to. 

    So of course I got in character and gave him just enough encouragement to keep re-matching as he switched from calling her (me) a "dumb k unt" to asking if I could send him a naked picture every 30 seconds, all whilst open shoving 90% range. 

    I think I won something like 17 out of 20 games before he realised that I wasn't going to add him on skype, send him a picture, or let him eat my a^^.

    gg. 

    ---

    I played a tournament, too. 

    Well a few 1 night. And won 1 again :)


    I'd love to genuinely be able to say "it was late" "i was tired" "he was good" etc etc as the reason for taking the deal.

    In reality though I was just being a wimp and scared to play for high stakes. 

    Although it was late, and it goes without saying I was tired. He was rubbish tho. 

    Whatever, gg. 

    ------

    Roll = £2050.04. 

    Which = about £360 profit for Feb.

    Which is aight. Low volume, losing at cash etc etc. 

    gg again. 

    ---

    Away from pokerz I'm continuing to eat well and exercise, resulting in my weight loss approaching 1 and half stone for the year. 

    I start voluntarily 'working' tomorrow at some (not so) local dog kennels, which I'm pretty excited about. I visited them a couple of times over the weekend and it's a really nice place, run by lovely people. 

    Hate using the adjective 'lovely' but that's the best way to describe them, they seem to be really passionate about what they do. <3

    Health wise, nothing has really changed.

    I'm still nackered all the time, each day is still a real slog. 

    I'm beginning to lose hope that it will ever go away, so the next best thing is to just accept it and deal with it the best I can. 

    ----

    No real poker goals for March*. 

    I'll just keep plodding on, flicking in an hour here and there when I a) fancy a game and b) can be bothered to play.

    Hope to keep increasing the volume and intensity of the exercise and continue to eat well, something that I'm finding really easy as I become more educated about good/bad foods. 

    I don't think I'll ever go back to old eating habits which I now know were awful. 

    I knew they were bad, I just didn't know 'how' bad. :/ 



    Good luck to everyone on the tables in March.

    What Up! 

    It's been a while. 

    I'm having to shift some £ about this week and it means its going to be difficult to keep a track of my 'challenge roll' without noting P & L for each session, so here's a tidy up of where I am with it. 

    I've played 6,427 hands of nl10 in April and made $104.


    I've played 8 x $3.50 HU sngs and won 4. Losing $0.40 

    I've earnt? (unlocked) €40 ($31.97) worth of rakeback. 

    = Total Profit of £103.82

    Added to the 'challenge roll' leaves it at £2153.86 from the initial starting amount of £40 way back when. 

    ---

    Away from the table I've continued to try and improve my diet and levels of exercise. 

    In fact I took on a challenge with a couple of mates to try and lose 2 stone in 2 months, an extremely ambitious target. 

    I started well, losing 6.5 lbs in week 1, but slacked in week 2 losing just half a pound. 

    We are half way through week 3 now. I'll keep you updated!

    Overall weight loss in 2016 = 21.5 lbs. 

    ---

    I've started work!

    Well, it's not real work. 

    I've been volunteering at a local dog kennells I mentioned a while back, going through a few days a week to help walk the pups. 

    I guess for it to be work I have to get paid, and It'd need to feel like a 'chore' to do it. 

    Neither applies here, 

    I love it, and the only thing stopping me going through alot more often is the fact we have adopted a dog from there ourselves. 

    So I have to stay at home to look after her while she settles in. 

    Meet 1 yr old Staffy, Bonnie :)


    She's a 'delight'. 

    Just don't leave your trainers, socks, bags, hat, gloves, coat, jumper, wool, in fact anything lying around ! :)

    ----

    I've set myself a fitness challenge, on top of the mini challenge I'm doing at the mo. 

    It's hugely optimistic, given my fitness levels atm are absolutely terrible having started from rock bottom. 

    I'd like to train to be able to run a half marathon by the 11th September 2016. 

    Again I've mentioned it before, I've always wanted to participate in the Great North Run. 

    Having had a brief look into it, it seems like it's difficult to get in. It may be easier than it looks but I was put off straight away. 

    But that doesn't mean I can't train and find 1 somewhere else on or before that date, so I'm going to give it a go. 

    Fwiw I've just got off the treadmill doing 2min walk/2min light jog intervals for 20 mins and I'm absolutely f*d. 

    So that might give an idea of the size of the challenge. :)

    ----

    Health/Tiredness.

    Is still very poor. 

    I went for my monthly checkup at the quacks last week. 

    He upped my dose of depression pills to the highest level he's allowed to. 

    And referred me to a talking therapist again, before saying it could be fibromyalgia. 

    I went home and googled it.

    Read up on the signs/symptoms.

    And concluded he's oficially run out of ideas. 

    It's definitely not that. 

    So I'm resigned to having to live with it. 

    Which I can, if I make sure I have a good attitude and try and stay on top of it. Accept there will be really bad days/weeks and that's just going to be part of life. 

    Bit like poker variance, we can still win long term :)

    Still off the beer though, 10 and a half months now.

    Poker plans....

    Meh. keep playing abit when I have time/want to. 

    Isn't very often atm, 6k hands in 28 days is Donald-esq volume.

    If not, dw March is here soon :)

    GL all grinding away & England in the cricket the morra' :D<3

    Nice looking pup that JJ. She will keep ya fit ;)
     Glad you seem to be level headed about everything now (life & poker).

    One of the few diaries I read nowadays, so it is good that you have updated us all.

    BTW....Hope all 2/3/4 of my regular readers are well, and have had a good April on the felt. 

    If not, dw March is here soon :)

    April is after March mate ;)

    Thanks for the update, JJ. One of your three readers here.

    Not sure about your fitness levels being rock bottom. I get out of breath just putting on my socks. After this weekend, where I spent several hours over three days sat on the floor (counting years worth of saved up coins like Scrooge), my legs feel like I've run a snickers. And that's just from sitting on a different surface than I'm used to. It would be fair to say I'm a bit out of shape.

    Sorry to hear the health/tiredness is no better. Do you really think you need more anti-depressents? (I'm very much anti-drugs). They seem to throw these things around like they're Spangles. And as for the currently stylish fibro-my-idleness....

    Maybe you need to eat more fish fingers. Omega-3 is good.

    Congrats on the alcohol :)

    EDIT - PS, dog looks very camp.

    Another very interested reader here, really impressed with how you're trying to turn your life around. You've done incredibly well, keep up the good work.

    Come on England. Be interesting to see what sort of surface it is at delhi, with New Zealands spinners doing the business so far, lets hope they're not as effective on this pitch.

    Not really Bonk. 

    But he's the expert. 

    Even though they aren't helping with the initial problem of fatigue/lethargy etc, maybe they are helping in other ways such as motivation to get up and do things despite the health issues. 

    As he said last week, I wont really understand the full impact they had until I stop taking them. 

    I'll give the full 40mg ones a month and speak to him again.

    You do know fish fingers are in breadcrumbs right?

    BREAD IS THE DEVIL.

    CALORIEZZZZZZZ. 

    Fresh steamed cod with a side of (no more than) 8 garden peas ftw!

    Thanks Splashman. 

    It's weird that in a comp in Asia with ragging wickets it's the New Zealanders that've dominated. Inspired team selection.

    Hopefully today is the day Big Bash hero King Adil comes in to his own after a mediocre tournament so far. 

    I am #nervousssssssssssss.

    Thanks chaps :)

    After a 90 minute walk late last night, I've woken up pretty late today. 

    The doctor suggested I started taking the tablets before bed rather than in a morning as they can induce (more) tiredness. 

    Not sure if there's a link but I've woken up feeling like death :/ 

    As a result it's too late to go through to the kennells as planned, so a day of indoor fitness as punishment for not getting my Rs up and out of bed on time. 

    Going to try and fit all 4 workouts, the treadmill, the seemingly impossible 'beginners' youtube workout vid that I've found, a shadow boxing session, and the dreaded 'stairs run',  in around the cricket. 

    RIP doh.

    GL all trying to close out the month in style on the tables.
