Introduction to Presence

I’ll talk more about this new site soon, but for now… Welcome to everyone from The Poker Nomad, I hope you enjoy the new style and content! On to my first article post… What is Presence? Presence is a state of mind where you are focussed on the now, the current moment, rather than thinking about the [...]

Still re-designing

Date: Tue, Apr 20, 2010

Aiming to have design pretty solid and a couple of article style posts up by the end of the month.

Cool Rjd2 video featuring Bill Shannon; a Brooklyn based artist who was born with a degenerative hip condition. He developed a way to express himself through break-dancing and skateboarding on crutches. The video was shot continuously on the streets of NYC.

Cha-cha-cha chaaanges

Date: Wed, Apr 14, 2010

Decided that it's time to change this up a bit. I've been messing around with another blog I've been writing for the past month and decided that the best plan is to merge it over into this one.

I don't really have as much interest in posting poker related stuff these days however I do have a lot of interest in other things. I'll be writing and posting up articles on a number of different topics including health, diet, fitness, motivation, work ethic, money, routine, presence, meditation and relationships. Might get the odd graph or poker update in there too.

Gonna kick off with a sexy re-design over the course of this week then I'll get down to posting up new stuff.

LOCKDOWN!

Date: Sun, Mar 28, 2010

I'm 10k hands away from my 50k minimum target for the month so the last 3 days are gonna be downtown grind central. Taking today off to relax then it's a 3-day lockdown of grinding!

This Month and Next Month...
I've been pretty happy with my work-rate this month. I hit a few hitches with routine, mostly involving going out drinking on weeknights... but I feel like I've got that figured out better now. Starting again on Monday I'll be aiming to get that routine nailed for the remainder of the month making it less of a struggle to get the hands in.

I think one of the main things I've learned this month is that it's completely realistic for me to make around $8k/month putting in good volume at $1/2. I have pretty much zero risk too which is really refreshing right now after dealing with the swings of higher stakes games. It's reassuring to know that the option is available to drop down and still be able to make a good living.

So right now I don't feel in much of a rush to get back up to the mid/high stakes games. I'll likely rock another month of $1/2 to iron out fundamental strategy, mindset and stuff and notch 100k confidence building hands. I also think that given I coach this limit it'd be great for my students and prospective students to get a look at an up to date graph of me playing in their games.
