huge one!!!!!!!!

Ok guys... so long time I didn`t really put much time into blogging, but niow too much has happened and so I feel its time to write something down here...

Let`s start with Poker ( lol doesn`t this ever get boring??? haha )

I am near my goal in 180s for 2012, I wanted to reach Goldstar in 180 mans and only one more spot on the ladder to climb.

I assume within the next week or so, I will be there

so far 2012without rakeback and live earnings.

Next thing, I recently started to think alot about my Pokergame and I am actually really happy about my results and my skilllevel.... I mean I did not have a single loosing month since 2010 and only one month or two with winnings of less than 2k... ( early 2012 I cashed big in live cash and mtts )
But one thing bothered me: I spend too much time playing poker.

So the consequence was to hire a really good coach and learn how to be more effective.

And after searching for a while I found this man...I have alot of respect for him and totally recommend him to everybody. And if anyone thinks I am posting this as I will get any money from him for recommendations, then I can assure you, that you are 100% wrong.

But this man will be the next coach I want to hire again, and discuss things with him.

And I really have to say it again:

When you think you don`t need to learn more and get a coach or people that help you in your game and in life, then that will be the day that you stop improving and will fall behind in near future...

spacegravy wrote in his blog few months or only weeks ago, that he was searching for people who want to discuss with him new games and want to sharpen their skills headsup with him, as he wants to leanr more about the game....

Ok I need to make it a bit clearer:

At this point spacegravy already made over 150k in 2012, and he wants to learn and improve?????
And you think you don`t want to hire coaches and talk to other players? OK GOOD LUCK!!!!!


Next thing i want to announce is that I will start a Pokerhouse in Germany for 1 or 2 weeks around march of 2013.

What does that  include?

We will have a cook, that will make fresh stuff for us every day.
We will have a personal trainer 3 times per week... ( he is my personal trainer right now, so i can assure you, that he will be the best man for the job available )
There will be a  coaching for investments besides Poker.
I will be there 24/7 for everybody available. You can watch me play and I can watch you play. we can talk about poker, about health, about everything you need.


My philosophy is:

Coaching Poker is not enough: what can I do besides the pokertables to improve my results on the pokertable?

There will be Food, Health, Financial and Poker-Coaching in that time, from professionals in all those Parts.
The prices will totally depend on how many people want to join us.

If you are interested hit me up for more details.

I promisse I will give all my best to make it worth all the time, the money and the effort.

Some results in the end:

I shipped a 25$ hyperturbo yesterday for 4332$

was really a nice feeling after getting second a day before in a 5,40$ ko for 1500$ and shipping 3 15$ 180 mans in 2 days too.... yay run good or what? ;)

Also I thought alot about my life and where I wanna go to in the future, and so i decided to spend more time in other business besides Poker and invest all my money in buying and renting flats and houses..around february my girl and me will buy 2 flats which will give us about 200€/month each in winnings. goal is to get to 5 flats in 2013 and add another 5-10 in 2014.

If my results in Poker keep getting better and better, then it will be more and faster..
To be able to do so, I decided to get staked again by a good friend of mine and play higher games and fewer hours. I right now make around 60-70$/hr, which is fantastic... now playing higher buyins and more constantly will be good for my life and relationship.

So how is my day right now?

Mo: learn in the morning and do coachings ( learning can be for poker and also reading books to inprove in finances ) after 7p.m. start work
tuesday: workout at 10 am  ( I have a personal trainer who really kills me - Perfect ), after that i totally chill, till 4pm, then I pickup my girl and we go out to dinner and after that I start my session.
wednesday: no poker-DAY, I spend the day with my girl, watch movies, play lots of boardgames.. I love that shit ;) then at 8pm, I spend time with my best friends, every single week
thursday: 10am workout - same as tuesday, but mostly i play 180 mans here
friday: play in the morning and after 3pm i stop, pick up my girl and we do something fun.
saturday: 10 am workout , after that most of the time i take the car and my girl and we drive somewhere, go shopping, or spend time with friends
sunday: serious grind-DAY. mostly we sleep long, then have a really sick breakfast ;) and after that we chill alot and when i see the games getting juicy, I sit at my computer and play...


the only days that i always play are tuesday and friday..the rest gets changed alot....as i love spending time with my gf and i want to change my life more towards investing money in buying flats, so I try to learn more and more.

Also I will start another Coaching part of Poker - The Part outside Poker that lets you win more in Poker.

I will announce more about this in the next posts, also I want to change my layout , so if anyone can help me on that I would be very thankful for your help.

Wish you all the best guys...sry for the long post....
