Poker Player Shares Daily Routine and Big Wins in Las Vegas

A poker player living in Las Vegas shares his daily routine and experiences in the poker world. The author, who plays at the Bellagio casino, is 26 years old, 173 cm tall, and has a playing style that ranges from TAG to LAG. He lives with two friends who are also professional poker players and his girlfriend.

The author has experienced significant swings in his poker career, including a six-figure downswing. To alleviate financial stress and improve his mental clarity during big hands, he found a backer. His daily routine includes waking up at 9:30 AM, exercising, and playing poker from 4 PM to 12:30 AM. He aims to play at least 45 hours per week and only sit in good games.

On March 21, the author won $7,300 playing 10/20, including a significant pot with a nut flush against a 6-high flush. His protégé, who had a downswing of $30,000, is now showing positive results and using unconventional lines. On March 22, he lost $2,700 playing 10/20, including a significant cooler for a $10,000 pot. On March 23, he won $2,500 playing 5/10 and 10/20, but was unhappy with some of his lines. On March 25, he won $16,500 playing 2/5, 5/10, and 10/20, with notable hands against BERT and YANG.
