Punk´s not tilt

I decided to try some HU, because I feel little bit bored by 6max last few days / weeks ... I actually played few thousands hands of NL20 and NL50 (I know - rake is killer at these stakes, but I have really good rb deal and want to learn this first, so I dont mind to be breakeven from my play and gain something from rb) and I noticed, that what really hurts me is playing a long sessions for whole day without break, when I basically play good until one moment, when I start to tilt hard and lost all my profit + something more. So I dediced to try strictly stop my session after 45 minutes of playing and then take a 1h break. I will see how this will work for me and than maybe reevaluate ...

I also want to ask question about br - I have about 1500 for the HU right know, and my plan is play NL20 until I reach 2k, and then take a shot on NL50 and go back when I drop down to 1500 again. Do you think that this is ok for HU ? Or you can recommend me another way how to manage it ? Thank you.

Hi,

I am going to the trip to Italy to catch up some last snow for this winter at the end of this month and I will certainly take my laptop with me. Thought I am not decided yet, if I want to play poker on this trip, I definitely want to ask you guys how is it working with poker in Italy, because I read that it is prohibited (wtf internet censorship). I assume that my poker software will work ok If I will have it already installed on my pc, but I am not sure if there are some other issues connected with it, if it is safe to play from Italy, or if they will make some sort of action againts you when someone will notice it (sounds pretty stupid I know, but I read that in Italy also cops are controling skiers and snowboarders on the hill of alcohol and awardings fines for that, so I am not sure about anythink here). Thank you for inputs.

From my poker world - I didnt play as much hand as I wanted to, but I was doing ok on NL50 for 5k hands. I had one really bad tilt session and it was caused only by my stupidity, when I refused to leave my tables after my 45 minutes limit for single session, because I had some good fishes on my tables and obv convinced myselft that I have to stack them all ... finally they stacked me 4x



I have 1930 usd in my BR now, so I will play a little bit NL50 and when I reach 2k, I will take a 2bi shot at NL100 so wish me luck
