Casual blog, travelling with Bitcoin, grinding just for sustenance. No highstakes here!
Hi. My name is Addy, I'm from Germany and this is my blog.
Short poker introduction, sorry if the timeline is a little hazy, it has been a long time.
* I've been playing professionally for ~14 years now.
* 2005-2006: FLHE, $30/60 - $100/200 of Party 'til UIGEA
* 2006-2009: SNGs ($60) and then HUSNGs (up to $500) on FTP and Stars 'til Black Friday
*2009-2013: MTTs and some streaming
*2014-2016: Bad years, some live poker, nothing really happened.
*2017-2020: Bitcoin period, mixed games!
I play literally every game of poker there is, 8-game, 11-game, Dramaha Mixes, double board BigO or this crazy mix:
I genuinely don't care. I consider myself a strong player in pretty much every game and a specialist in none. This is why I never aspired to play highstakes-nosebleeds and I never will. In terms of Rounders, I am the Joey Knish, not Mike.
I have a comfortable bankroll to play every game I wish to play in and if I breakeven after expenses, I'm happy with it.

I have been solo travelling for 6 weeks now and plan to continue until atleast the end of the year. Currently, I am in Phuket Thailand and I really enjoy it here. Some highlights below:
In February, I will go to Phnom Penh, Cambodia to play some PLO live poker (hopefully it runs) and I will be happy to report from there aswell. After that, I come back here to show my mom around Thailand. In May I'll go to India and Sri Lanka and then it's back to Germany for my sister's wedding. That's the plan.
With this blog, I hope we can talk about travel experiences, the good old times in poker, mixed games, bitcoin or whatever else you can come up with! Solo travel can get a little lonely sometimes and I hope to pass some idle time with this. 😀
Oh, and here is my december in numbers for those interested. Started late because of travel planning and stuff.
