I just got from the Bahamas recently where I played in the PCA 10k Main Event buy in which was great experience. Very nice to meet couple of fellow online players and see all those known live players around. The weather in Bahamas could have been better though.

I made it to day 3 of the Main Event and busted in 270th place. 225 made the money, I'm very happy with my performance. I controlled my table during the day 1 where I had a huge stack, the 2nd was a little tougher but I did well then the 3rd day I busted within 30 minutes. Had a really gross spot vs 'MattG1983' which is a really good player. 

We are 8-handed and a former EPT winner (don't remember his name) raises utg to 9,6k 2nd hand in a row with blinds being 2/4k I pick up AQhh and decide to 3-bet to 25,2k in mp. Matt Graham makes it 57,800 instantly and I tank for 2-3 minutes before I decide to shove 140k better only to get snap called by QQ's and bust out.

I was deciding to fold then change my mind at least 2 or 3 times during the thinking process, Matt was the only player at the table who were capable of cold 4-betting light there so close to the money so I went with my read but I was wrong.

Well I had a great time Bahamas, though I played one side event the 1k freezeout which had a pretty good line up given that most of the pros were gone home. I finished 30 from the money in that, I was seated at the table with 'Antesvante' and 'Young Supremacy' for a long time and then got transferred to the right of 'Purple"K"99' so it was not easy tables.

It's been like 2 days since I got home, me and my buddies stopped in NY for 3 days to do some shopping and chill. Well I'm back home in Iceland right now and I have been grinding pretty massively since I got home.

Been playing everything on stars and ftp for tlb points and stuff like that, trying to score higher on the leaderboard this year then the last (50th last year) always trying to improve thats the purpose of it all isn't it? 

I think I will chill home for like 1 month and grind during the week, going to start grinding UB, Party and Cake also going for the triple crown this week cause I have win both on stars and tilt , it would be nice to take the crown down. I will probably do maybe 1 live event in february, maybe LAPT or something or maybe go to Thailand with my friends, not sure what I will do but at least I'm going to have fun.

I recently starded playing hu cash game on ftp just for fun and practice, I think that will help me develope my mtt game and show me new ways to play poker. A good friend of mine is a hu specialist and he is pretty good and I have learned a lot watching him. I have been making some money of the 1/2$ games and a little bit playing 0.5/1$ this is mostly for practice though. I don't want to play higher..

Well if we stop talking poker for a bit I have decided to take my lifestyle seriously right now and start eating healthy, and exercise (going for walks with my dog) and weighth lifting. I think I will feel much better if I do that and also it's good for my poker game. It's pretty hard though cause I live in Iceland and all the good mtts are during the night so I grind then and sleep during the day at least now so I will have to find some solution. 

Well that's for now I'm going to post some mtt schedueles here in the future for fun and inspiration to me and other players. 

going to sleep now,

Yes I liked the challenge 'Boku87' started and wanted to do something similar myself.
This challenge isn't nearly as hard he is doing 100$-10k in 15 days. This is very doable and i'm just testing myself if i'm able to grind 10k playing those stakes in 1 month. I will play my regular tournaments when I'm doing this and I'm not starting with some small br.

I will just keep you updated by posting pictures of my sharkscope. I think I will focus most on playing 16$ 18 mans and 12$ 45 mans, which I think is the most profitable. I will mix it in with some 12$ 180 mans but variance is high in those so I will keep those in minimum.

I'm not taking any prop bets or nothing like that. As I said before this is just for myself to keep me motivated. There is no limit how much volume I will put in. I will try to play every day sngs who are in this challenge.

I have to make av. 333$ per day which is hard I think when variance kicks in.

Here comes the first pic. Only 13 games played today but I'm about to start a new session. I will try to play like 16-24 tables. It's Sunday obviously so I will not be playing in the challenge much today.
