Thanks!

Today is my day off since I played over 7 hours yesterday but I eat, shit and breathe poker! Tbh I wouldn't be a very good grinder if I wasn't degen on some level . I've just played one set this morning but the tables are so tight, it's hard to make money. I should have just played more games yesterday.

I'm going to run over the ICM from the last set because I feel like I made a few mistakes. At least I'm not happy with my performance. Once I finish that I have work to do on how profitable shoving different ranges is e.g. if 66+,ATs+,AJo+ is 0 EV to shove, what happens if I shove 66? Imo it's got to be -EV since shoving AA is so +EV. There have to be hands that balance things so it's 0 EV to shove the entire range. Perhaps I am misunderstanding things?

I also have work to do on some AHK code that needs cleaning up and more efficient programming. My approach to programming is a pretty blunt one. I get things to work, but I'm not very efficient in how I go about doing it.

Keeping my eye out for a new place to rent too. I moved in with my folks while I was wrapping up studies, but now it's time to move on. I guess this has really motivated me to play so much. I do need a good kick up the arse sometimes.

The problem is rents are still pricey here, they went up after the credit crunch and the Soccer World Cup and haven't really come down. Idk where people are getting the money from because about $1500/month is a decent salary in SA and a single room apartment costs about $600 - $800. I can't decide whether to go for a 2 bed or a 1 bed either. I'm not sure I want to work in the same space I sleep in. Any thoughts from some people who grind from home?
