Study time: 2 hours

Hands: 992

Game quality: B+/A

Hey guys!

Today I woke up early, went to the swimming pool and then started my session. Action was dead for a while but then I got to regbattle at 500NL and I was pretty focused while playing. I played a couple other short sessions a little bit later and then had a study session with 2 friends reviewing hands which was good too.

I’m feeling really happy with my game. I’m quite surprised that I didn’t feel rusty at all after vacation too.

More tomorrow as well as some interesting hands. Good luck!

Hey guys.

Today I had a good day. I didn't get to play a lot even though I was opensitting the lobby for some time. Started with a 1KNL pool in which I did quite well and then had a great study session. Ended the day playing a short session on a 500NL pool and my game was pretty good despite being quite tired.

Hands as promised!

Hands: 1266

Game quality: B

Hey guys.

Today I played my first session before going to the swimming pool and I felt way less focused while playing which proves once again how important is for me to follow my routine. I played a bunch of sessions mostly against recs and did quite well.

More tomorrow, good luck!

hey Nuno what is your net worth if its not too private question?
just curious what high level pro i capable of these days.

28/7/2019 UPDATE

Hands: 990

Game quality: B, A-

Hey guys.

Today I put good volume once again. At some points I wasn't playing my best due to having too many tables and feeling a bit distracted. Other than that, I’m overall quite happy with my performance lately.

Waking up early tomorrow morning and starting the week strong! Good luck all.

29/7/2019 UPDATE

Study time: 2 hours

Hands: 689

Game quality: B

Hey guys.

Today I had a very busy day. Woke up quite early, went to the swimming pool as always and after warming up I started with my first session of the day pretty focused. I unfortunately got distracted after the first 30 minutes so I decided to stop at around the 1 hour mark. Then I cooked and had lunch and after that I had a great study session in which I refreshed a few concepts. After that I did a coaching session with a new student that was very nice as well.

Tomorrow I’ll be quite busy since I have to do a couple non poker related things and I also have another coaching session scheduled but I’ll try to play some hands if possible. Good luck!

30/7/2019 UPDATE

Study time: 2 hours

Hands: 194

Game quality: A

Hey guys.

Today I had another very busy day. Had some good study, then I did a coaching session and finally recorded a live play video for RIO and that was all the poker I played today. I'm really tired since I worked quite a lot even though it wasn't at the poker tables.

More tomorrow as well as the end of month recap! Good luck all.

31//7/2019 UPDATE

Study time: 2 hours

Hands: 614

Game quality: A+, B+

Hey guys.

Today I woke up early, went to the swimming pool and then played a session in which I ended really happy both with my strategic decisions and with my performance regarding mental game. Then had a study session and finally played a short one pretty unfocused for the most part.

Monthly recap coming next.

MONTHLY UPDATE

Hey guys. This was a good month even though I didn't play much at all because I spent two whole weeks back home. I'm really happy with my game and the new routine that I have seems to be helping a lot too. I'm super motivated to keep studying and crushing the games. Let's go!

Good luck folks, thanks for reading!

Awesome results man! You deserve all the best

1/8/2019 UPDATE

Study time: 2 hours

Hands: 1323

Game quality: B

Hey guys.

Today study was awesome. We learned a few new things and I realized how much my thought process during hands has changed lately. I’m way more comfortable in many spots at this point and can’t wait to keep improving more and more. My game at the tables was good but not great. I couldn’t concentrate much at all and this is something that I really want to improve as well.

More tomorrow. Good luck!

Hey guys sorry for the lack of updates last few days. I've been basically playing way more hands than I should have (specially today) and my game has been pretty mediocre because of that even though the results have been pretty good for the most part I believe. Probably taking a day off the tables to regain confidence and hit the lab.

Good luck all.

Sorry for the lack of updates. Haven’t been motivated to post given that I believe there’s not much interest on this anymore. I’d probably stop posting or maybe post monthly updates from now on.

Good luck folks!

Yeah I can do it weekly and post the most interesting hands of the week. That sounds like a good idea, thanks mate.

Great! Looking forward for those hh's buddy

We need hh's!

There we go!

Weekly update

Hey lads!

This was a great week. I'm extremely happy with my game lately. Been putting a lot of work every day and I feel like I keep improving day by day. Volume has been good as well, I'm playing around 1000 hands a day which is great volume given that I do 2h / 2.5h study sessions with a few friends every weekday.

Some hands as you guys like :P

Ambitious

Interesting river shove

Full house is good

Got caught

Got caught again (this one is bad on my part)

Cooler

Gotcha!

Next Friday I'm leaving back home for a couple weeks. The plan is to spend a few days with the girlfriend on Portugal, we going to visit Lisbon and probably Porto as well so I'm pretty excited for that.

Goals for this week:

• Maintain a good work / sleep schedule

• Meditate once a day

• Record two awesome videos for RIO

That's it guys. Hope you all have a great week, thanks for reading and good luck!

It looks like Christmas came early this year :P

Feliz navidad muchachos :)

Hey boys!

I’m traveling back home for a couple weeks as I already told you. The plan is to enjoy some time with my girlfriend and family and keep studying poker on a daily basis as well as organizing everything I learned the past two months.

Last week was pretty productive. I did a lot of study, recorded two RIO videos and played some hands as well. Forgot to post the monthly graph but I’ll do that when I’m back on Andorra. I’m pretty happy with my game overall but I really feel like I should try to become more organized because that will help me to perform at a higher level at the tables. Will keep you guys updated from time to time and I might post a few pics from my trip to Lisbon!

Good luck everyone and thanks for reading!

Hey lads!

Wanted to make a brief update about the past couple of weeks.

I’ve been basically spending a lot of time with my girlfriend and some poker friends, relaxing and enjoying my time back home. This upcoming week we’re going to Portugal, starting on Porto and then visiting Lisbon as well. I’m really excited about that :)

On a side note I’ve been doing some poker study on my own and I’m really happy since I feel like I’m playing very well in the most common postflop situations. I’m also excited to be back on the grind soon and I’m gonna work super hard and be very disciplined to try to reach the highest stakes while my love for the game is still there.

That’s all boys, thanks for reading and good luck!

Hi guys!

I’m finally back from my Portugal trip. It was awesome, clearly surpassed my expectations and my girlfriend’s. We had a very good time on both cities but we liked Porto a little better than Lisbon.

Some pics from the trip:

That’s all. Tomorrow I’m traveling back to Andorra and ready to get back on the grind and crush the tables. Let’s go!

Good luck all and thanks for reading :)

Hey guys!

I’ve been thinking on renting an office for some time in order to be more productive and I finally decided to give it a try. At this point of my career, I realized the main two things that are holding me back from reaching the higher stakes are discipline and mental game. I’m not saying that I have no other leaks but I believe my knowledge of the theory is pretty good and I keep improving day by day so if I manage to become more disciplined and better at handling swings I can make it. I’d like to know if you guys had any experiences when it comes to renting a separate place to work but in my case I’d expect it to be very helpful because I find myself sometimes unable to differentiate between my job and my free time and that affects me in such a negative way.

That’s all for now. Will keep you updated, good luck and thanks for reading!

Thanks for the comments guys! I absolutely agree with you and I can’t wait to give it a try so from Monday I’ll be looking into it and will post a picture as soon as I have everything set up :)

Today I came back to the tables after a quite long hiatus and I felt pretty good overall. A bit rusty in a few spots but that’s pretty normal. I’m pumped to get back into the study + grind routine and keep doing well.

Tomorrow I have a coaching session scheduled and the plan is to play some cards as well (both poker and Magic :P) Will post a few interesting hands as well. Good luck all and thanks for reading!

Hey boys.

Sorry for the lack of updates these last few days. Been grinding quite a lot lately and yesterday I also went to see a few offices. I think I'm gonna rent one tomorrow and move my stuff during the weekend so I can start to work in there from Monday.

Some hands as promised:

Cooler

Bad shape

Bluffcatching

Easy game

Got caught

Cooler

That's all guys. Will post another update as soon as I'm set up on my new office. Good luck all!

Hi buddy ! Nice to hear you are going all in with the office

Easy game : interesting flop size

Send some pics when you are settled on the new office

Hey guys.

Today I signed the contract of my new office! On Sunday I’m moving my PC, desk and chair and from Monday or Tuesday I’ll be working from there, pretty excited about that to be honest :)

Pictures coming as soon as I have everything set up. Good luck!

FIRST DAY AT THE OFFICE

Hey guys!

Today I started at my new office and it was great. I felt much more concentrated while playing most of the time and it also helped me to be more productive and put a decent study session by myself. I’m very happy about it and quite motivated to keep working :)

Mandatory picture

That’s all guys, back tomorrow. Good luck all!

Hey guys.

Just finished my last session and I’m waiting for the bus while I write this. Just wanted to share my feelings at the office these last few days.

Being there makes me feel really productive and I think it’s helping me a lot in order to maintain concentration while playing. Tuesday and Wednesday were really good days, felt very well and played quite well for the most part. Today was similar but I made the mistake of playing a bit too much which I should’ve avoided. There was an unreal 1KNL pool running so i forced myself a little bit in order to play there. I don’t regret that decision but I just wanted to post it here in order to have it on mind for the next time.

That’s all. Overall I’m really happy with my new routine and just need to keep improving on a few aspects to make it even better. Thanks for reading and good luck folks!

Hey guys.

Today was a great day. First of all I had a swim like every morning and then started my day at the office by reviewing some hands that I played yesterday. After that, I had a great session. Was quite focused and came up with some good plays and a few good explos as well.

After having lunch I prepared and recorded a RIO video and I felt like it was one of, if not the best video I’ve ever made. It was a hand history review which is the format in which I think I’m able to give away most concepts. After recording it I realized how much I enjoy producing content. It’s one of my favorite things to do and I absolutely love to see people enjoying what I do and learning from it.

That’s all, I just wanted to share my day with you. Hope you all had a good one as well, thanks for reading and good luck!

Hey guys.

Had to come back home for a few days and forgot to post the monthly graph. I basically broke even. Everything I won at 500NL evaporated at 1KNL while taking some shots. A more detailed update is coming at the beginning of the next week as soon as I’m back on the grind.

Thanks for reading and good luck!

Hey guys I'm excited to announce my new Coaching Project along with fellow RIO Pro and study partner Antonio Miranda

Let us know what you think! I'm really excited for this one.

Good luck all!

I can see that! Will keep posting once a week :)

Whatever suits you best buddy!
If there are others following the thread it'd be nice to leave a comment from time to time.

no window in the office?

Hey everyone!

Been super busy lately primarily doing a lot of coaching for Heads Up Academy. People seem to be enjoying it and we're creating a HU community already which is super cool.

I've been grinding quite a lot too and I feel pretty happy about my game overall. I'm really excited to keep working and teaching because that's also very helpful for me as a player and it's going to help me to polish my game on a lot of spots.

Today I took Sunday off the tables and didn't go to the office so I've got no hands to show but I'll find some time tomorrow and will post a few interesting ones :)

Thanks for reading and good luck!

Hey guys!

Month is over and I just wanted to share my results with you guys.

Quite okay month given that I only played from November 12th and I was really busy with coaching pretty much every day.

I'm really excited to keep working in our coaching project and I'm also gonna try to maintain a good study and play routine this month. The year is almost over and I just wanna do my best til the 20th or so that I will come back home for Christmas.

Thanks for reading guys, back soon with some hands for entertainment purposes. Good luck all :)

Glad to hear you find a conducive office to work! Having a place like that helps us focus and puts us in the right frame of mind for productive work.

Hey guys!

I bring you some hands as promised. Could only find three but they are all really interesting IMO. Enjoy :)

You win

Really weird spot, glad to see that I didn't butchered this one :P

One of the most interesting hands I've ever played and reviewed

Thanks for reading guys. Good luck!

If I can ask, how is your redline doing? Or how other good regs ?
I'm just curios, in HU it is suppose to be like in 6 max, some have positive some not. Or it is something different.

Hello Nuno, love your work.

I have a question about the GTO Postflop Trainer.

I bought the HU training pack that you and Antonio have designed and I would like to know the strategic options you've input in PIO street by street. Can you post a screen please ?

Thanks in advance and keep up the good work !

Hey man thanks for the kind words!

PM sent :)

Hey guys!

I didn’t forget about you :) Will post the End of the Year Update in a couple of days since I’m traveling back home on Wednesday.

Good luck all!

END OF THE YEAR UPDATE

Hey guys. My Poker year is over and I wanted to share my results with you.

Graph

Not the best results but not the worst either. Quite funny to see that I ran over EV. I lost around 22k at 1KNL with a terrible run there but I'm happy with my game and performance for the most part. Volume is quite low because I moved to Andorra in the middle of the year and couldn't play a for some time and also because I've been doing a TON of coaching lately. Anyway, I'm happy with my winrate and I'm really excited to keep doing well next year and hopefully increase my monthly volume for 2020.

On a side note, the Heads Up Academy Project was quite a big success. Got 3 groups and we’re creating a pretty solid HU Community. We're planning on forming a few more groups on January and we will also release a new Practical Course on the next few weeks so stay tuned!

Thanks a lot for reading guys and wish you all happy holidays and a great start to 2020! Good luck all :)

Have a nice vacation, deserved it for sure! Merry christmas xOxO

it is time to jump into the action, while can play linus for ''cheap''. I believe see him playing nl2k in a very long time

Hi Nuno,
Are you solving riddles before you play?
I hear lumosity is allright.
Than again I got bored of it quickly.

I'm just trying to tell you something....

Hey Nuno hope you are having a good start of the new year!
Do you happen to know a app or software where you can play free HUNL vs a friend for practice reasons ?

Hey guys!

Long time since I posted here. I just wanted to say that I moved my blog to the Heads Up Academy Discord channel but in case that theres some interest I can crosspost it here. Hope you guys are doing well and sorry for the lack of updates. Last months have been very busy for me.

Good luck!

New blog!
