    Do You Own a House

    House ownership now is not easy at all, even people that are earning a good salary are still struggling to build one. I checked the price of a small piece of land last year and the price nearly made me drop my phone. Personally, I have not gotten a house yet but I understand why some people just...

    Do You Enjoy Reading Autobiographies and Biographies

    Autobiographies is actually different when you are actually honest about the suffering behind the success. Some of these rich men books just sound like “wake up by 5am and grind” meanwhile they forget to mention the process. The one that really stayed with me was Andre Agassi’s biography. That...

    Do You Have a Passive Income Source

    Passive income is interesting in theory but building it is the real war. Everybody online talks like money just magically enters your account while they sleep. Meanwhile most passive income streams need serious active suffering first.

    Do You Deal With Excessive Workloads?

    Excessive workload from home is even more dangerous because people think since you are in the house, you’re always available. Before you know it, morning has turned into midnight and you have not done anything reasonable.

    Ever Used Fundraising Platforms Like GoFundMe or Kickstarter

    Crowdfunding sounds nice online until you remember that trust issues is everywhere now. I’ve donated a small money before when someone needed urgent surgery, but personally opening a fundraiser for myself? nah. People will first suspect a scam before any sympathy.

    Have You Published Books?

    Publishing books sounds sweet until you actually sit down and write consistently. I tried starting one small motivational ebook during the lockdown period and I quickly realized writing is not easy at all. But I respect people making passive income from books because that thing can really grow...

    Do You Have Any Regrets About You Past Decisions

    I definitely regret some past decisions no matter how motivational people try to package it. One bad financial move I made in 2023 still annoys me till today. I ignored my instincts because everybody around me was talking about easy profit. But at the same time, if those mistakes didn't happen...

    Do Poker Players Need an Emergency Fund Outside Their Bankroll?

    An emergency fund outside bankroll is not even optional again. It's a survival strategy. I’ve seen people start chasing impossible wins because rent is close or data subscription finished. Once real life pressure enters your poker game, your thinking is distorted already.

    What’s the Safest Way to Build a Small Bankroll?

    Just do away with all those “double your bankroll quick” advice online. That's where many people lose control. If you really wants to build a small bankroll safely, freerolls and tiny micro stakes still make the most sense. Slow money is better than emotional damage.

    Have you ever been disconnected during a big hand?

    Mine happened during one hand years back and till today I still remember the anger. The network just disappeared like it was punishing me personally. By the time the connection came back, hand has folded automatically. The annoying part is that you can't even explain to anybody because poker...

    How long can you go without your smartphones and gadget?

    I used to think I could stay one full day without my phone until I realized everything in my life is inside that small device. My banking app, work, OTP, even ordering food. This gadget has actually surpassed addiction at this point. Sometimes I intentionally switch off my data for like two...

    What will you do if a poker site rip you off?

    If any poker site ripped me off like that, the first thing I would do is to screenshot everything immediately. The chat, transaction ID, email, even the table history. A betting site has actually delayed my withdrawal for 5 days and support kept sounding like a robot and it was a terrible...

    Do the best cash game players or the best tournament players average more profit on a daily or weekly basis?

    I think the cash game grinders probably sleep better at night 😂 Tournament money is attractive because of those huge screenshots I see people post online, but the swings can mess with you mentally. Imagine grinding for weeks with nothing solid to show while bills is waiting for you. Cash games...

    When Do You Know It’s Time to Leave a Cash Game Session?

    The hardest thing in poker is knowing when to stand up or stop. Greed can hold you down😂 One time I doubled my bankroll early and instead of leaving happily, I stayed because I wanted “just one more win.” Before sunrise everything has vanished. Since then I created a simple rule. Once I notice...

    Do You Ever Deposit to Boost Your Poker Bankroll?

    Anybody that says they never redeposited before is either lying or they have stromg discipline 😂 Building bankroll naturally sounds sweet until one terrible week wipes your progress. I used to force myself with the “never redeposit” mindset until I realized I was playing scared because I didnt...

    Has cryptocurrency done more harm than good?

    Cryptocurrency is both blessing and curse honestly. This is exactly why I stopped listening to random Twitter “crypto gurus” shouting “100x gem” every week. One cousin of mine entered into one useless coin in 2024 and the thing disappeared overnight.😂 But at the same time, crypto helped many us...

    How Do You Maintain Focus During Long Poker Sessions?

    My brother, long poker sessions can be very demanding mentally. People think you just sit down and click cards, but after some hours your brain starts working sluggishly. One thing that helps me is reducing distractions completely. No arguing in group chats, no loud music, nothing. Once I notice...

    Do you think mindset matters more than skill at low stakes?

    The mindset matters more than skill for low stakes.. it's possible to understand all the poker strategies online but if greed or anger gets in the way , that's a problem.. I’ve seen players with average knowledge cash out steadily because they understand how to control themselves.

    How Do You Control Tilt After a Tough Hand?

    Tilt is one thing that can destroy good poker players fast. I learned that the hard way after one terrible night where I lost three hands back-to-back because I was chasing revenge instead of playing smart. After that, every small thing gets me annoyed. These days if I notice my chest is hot...

    Arsenal fans have already started eyeing Champions League before the final. But this Arsenal side looks more mature than before. Their midfield balance is serious now.
