Been a while since I made a blog here.

Excuses are easy to make up so I rather do some updates.

First Im well settled in Brighton and it feels good to have everything set up besided my workstation with real internet.

So Im currently grinding away at my laptop without HEM (Ill install it today) and actually stable but slow mobile broadband. Been doing well this year running good vs mostly Gus at 5-1k cap but also some fun 1-2 and 2-4 hu matches. Fun equals no cap, cause I still find cap stupid/flipflop-/and def not 4 street -poker, even I think Ive edge playing it. Having fun at the tables is part of my motivation, otherwise its damn hard to put in the volume Im trying to have. Also dabbled a tad in the 1-200 6m games when they are running, to stay sharp in a lot (very) though lineups.

That said my volume the last 3 months suck, since Ive been to busy with moving and taking some time off. So I hope I can get back on the real grind (and dont be a slacker).

Been very lucky that I already have made myself leverage with winnings this year so I can keep up playing all games that are worth it. Ill try to stay away from boring games unless my edge is big or Ive no other action, and stay away from games that are to high for me vs aggro villians.

I feel bankroll management are so different vs the lag'tards'. And it would make no sense to sell action for good games then play the games noone want action for solo, with half winnings from the games that are a bit easier.

Also Galfonds mantra/blog about protecting your roll seems very smart. Important to be in action at the fun stakes instead of having to grind it up and potensial loose great action/games.

I also did a small eurotrip visiting Paris and Copenhagen with gf + playing 3 mtts in February. 1 minicash was the result and it sometimes feels such a grind with live NLHE. Esp for Copenhagen where they decided to run the whole day 1 as 10handed.

Not saying Im not gonna dabble more in them, but its at least not top5 on my priority list atm. And kudos for those with the patience/stamina to kill live. Go team Terken!


Ill finish with an observation that online PLO still seems to go very strong with a lot action even in weird hours. If there is anyone still considering jumping in to learn the game, Im pretty positive its not too late at all.


Good luck at the tables


Andreas
