Quest to become full-time poker pro
Greetings Everyone,
Plan is simple but hard to achieve 10k€ in the bank+bankroll and ~+2k$ income/monthly from poker.
After unexpected success in my first blog, where I succeed in making 1k$ profit in a month playing 25nl.
Wanted to continue keep myself accountable and have a good place for reflection.
In this blog I will be posting:
-Weekly updates (Result Graph,Sessions,RB,Interesting HH)
-Weekly goals and plans (upfront)
-Monthly updates
-Monthly goals and plans (upfront)
About me, I'm 26 year old male from Latvian and currently working full-time job(15days a month, 12h shifts). For now I'm playing 25nl PartyPoker Regular/Zoom tables and have a rakeback ~25%. In future might look into other options but for now I'm satisfied with 25nl pool of PartyPoker. Will be using aggressive bankroll management 20bi up with 2bi shots.
P.S. Will not end this blog until I achieve my goal, for how ever long it takes.
Thanks for reading.
Any feedback about how I played or thinks I could do better is much appreciated.

I thought the extra rakeback was provided by other parties like Universal Poker and some others
Week 19 Recap
Greetings,
Weeks was going pretty well, but on Sunday after not getting the best sleep and focusing too much on Rake-Back goals had a very terrible session. Big issue with this -575$ session was me thinking I can push trough this variance and can still perform to break-even/winning level which was very faulty logic and cost me more. Did handle this big loss surprisingly good and even played later that day, so I will try to take positives from that and shot-taking 100nl doesn't seem that scary after this session. In Future will cut my session length to 90min max. Also will focus more on routine and quality of play rather the volume. Also decent concern is other Regs getting their Rake-back cut short to 20% max... Canadians/Brazilians/UK.
Cash: -184,3$

Some positive message from other Reg:
(I guess action is drying up at 100nl and he want me to punt at 100nl, he did say play not win.)

Week 20 Recap
Greetings,
Fine week, still running below EV and feeling like being unlucky...I guess hitting two straight flushes for all the money makes up for it but not really. In other news skipping work as I'm again semi-sick and will have next week completely free as well. Still working on my tendency of calling way to often. Also Been studying more then usual but could do a lot more and will try to use the spare free time smart. Overall better week then last one and small comeback in not the best month. Still a lot of work has to be done mental/strategy wise so I could be Full-time poker player (will try again 100nl at the start of October).
