Finals Week! #gametime

About one more week of school than I'm done! Can't wait to get this over with and then move onto the summer and crush bitches! That is, if Merge actually has tables for me to play :( Last week, Lock Poker separated away from Merge Network and hurt their traffic for small stakes games pretty significantly. Normally there's around 6-12 50nl FR games running, but now there's about 2 games haha :(. Hopefully it turns up better down the line with Merge's new update to their software which looks pretty decent from what I have seen so far.

Need to get off here and start studying for tests because we all know getting great grades is important in life! Will update some more between study breaks and vent out any frustration I have in that aspect.

Back #2!

Sorry to keep all of my 2 followers waiting! :) But school has been pretty brutal and when I have any free time at all I have to hit the tables. School being over in 2 weeks means much more posts from me to come so don't get too excited!

On to the poker side of things, and I won't lie, things are going really great at the moment. I was able to play 30k hands this month of May and earned $1k including rakeback (like 700 on the tables) which is my best month ever by far. 50nl is also going great, lots of fish and the regs aren't even that great to be honest which equals a good opportunity to make money for Tyler! Next month will try to play more hands but if not then, def will be playing a ton of volume over the summer combined.

Will be updating this at least 2 times a week now in the future to try to get more followers guys!

I'm Back!!!

Hi! Sorry for the lack of update here but had some personal emotional issues going on the past week that really messed with my mind! Cliffs: don't let emotions come in between you and a girl at a young age especially if you like to mingle ;) 

Poker wise it's going to be a brief update, spring break is on right now for me so i'm trying to put in a good grind. 25nl is going great so far! (about 15k hands) and will be shot taking 50nl soon :o. I think the main issue for me is to not view it as money and really not overadjust. Yes it's a higher stake but the fish will still fish and the regs will still suck. Will have a bigger update later on though!

April Aspirations

Soooo school is done for the week and now it's time to think up some goals for the month! Only have a few that I will be looking to hit so I will just go ahead and list them right away without wasting your time :P

1. Focus on school exams. I have 3 exams on 4/11 and really need to pick up the slack in that category! Lots of homework this weekend and with The Masters on its going to be hard to focus the whole time.

2. Poker wise, try to put in 30k hands somehow. I have spring break starting the 16th of April with no classwork so I would like to play 10-15k hands during that time. My biggest problem in poker is volume and something really needs to be done about it. I recently discovered I might spend a little bit too much time studying rather than playing, therefore, I need to split it around a 70/30 ratio where studying being the latter of the two.

3. Concentrate concentrate and concentrate while playing poker. Watching a poker video about mindset of the game made me realize what I am actually doing while playing. This consists of listening to music, talking to people on skype all the time, browsing FoursFull, and just checking random things on the internet. There is absolutely no way I can play to the best of my abilities while doing these things! My goal is to stop all of the above and focus on taking proper notes and making better informed decisions while at the tables.

Not a long list of goals for the month, but I feel it is plenty enough to keep me busy!
