How Bad Do You Want It?

I watched this video. If anything, it made me feel like I'm not yet there (successful). Then I read the whole speech. When I read this "I'm here to tell you today that you can come here, you can jump up, you can do flips, you can be excited when we give away money. But listen to me, you will never be successful cause I don't have to give you a dime to use it. You won't be successful until you say I don't need that money. Because I got it in here." It made me feel great. 

Last DICC, I wasn't able play because I wasn't able to get a seat. It's the first time in a long time that I missed a major tournament at The Metro. I could've bought in if I wanted to, but I didn't. It sounds like a failure but it was actually a success for me. I broke away from staking.

From 2nd to 22nd

Focus on the task  at hand and do it RELENTLESSLY.

It's been almost 3 years and I'm about to have a major change in my life next year. I'm moving. I have been spending the last few weeks preparing. I still have two months to get everything in place. I have never been this focused about something in my life.

Also, I'll be gunning for Super Nova at  Poker Stars next year. I'm giving up live poker altogether and just concentrate on cash games online. The only tourneys I'll be playing are the monthly 100k freeroll for Gold Star and the 1M quarterly freerolls. I hope i take one down. :)

Poker-Gym-Cook-Eat-Shower. That's pretty much what next year is going to look like for me. Hopefully, I'll be able to squeeze in a 2-week vacation somewhere.

WHAT HAVE I BEEN UP TO LATELY?

-Made a short stint on SH at ENET.
-Played live.
-Came back at GW.

BOUNCING BACK

Just because it's not your day doesn't mean you have to go and ruin the rest of it.

I made a rookie mistake at the biggest stake I've played live. Done and over with. I learned my lesson. I can't wait to build a bankroll and unleash hell.

As soon as I get home, I open my laptop and play online. Hell! If there's one thing I'm good at, it's bouncing back. I recorded my biggest win online at 6max. :D 3 buy-ins for the win.

So now, time to prioritize. Finish shit and get things done.

ANOTHER TOURNEY ANOTHER CASH IN

Finished 11th, again, in my very first APT...side event. It was fun while it lasted. I can't wait for my next tourney. I hope I can make the Final Table next time.

I never thought I'd miss these 1-Day-No-Ante Tourneys. :)

JUST BECAUSE I CAN

The next time someone asks me why I play poker for a living, I'll answer them with this -- "Just because I can." The next time someone asks me if they could play poker for a living, I'll answer them with this -- "It's not for everybody." The next time someone asks me what I do for a living, I'll just order a beer and ask them what they do for a living. Haha!
