Today’s post is another shining example of my sick drawing skills and links back to a couple of recent posts: “Does Game Work?” and Midwest’s “Indoor Daygame Guide Review.” Have a read of those before continuing here. And here it is: my Mona Lisa. Here’s what’s going on in the drawing: the line represents the … Continue reading The Wedge and the Homeless Man Principle

Does Game Work?
Now that I’ve got you with that clickbait-y title, let me clarifying my question: I’m not asking whether the act of Game is effective - that it’s all smoke and mirrors in front of money and looks - because we can clearly see that at the very least some elements of Game such as systematically … Continue reading Does Game Work?
The Bank Of Vibe: An Analogy To Make You A Happier Person
Today’s post is just a short, simple analogy which you can put in your back pocket and take with you as you go. Imagine that your vibe is inside a bank account. You can make deposits and withdrawals. You sometimes pay fees. You can dip into your overdraft. You can get a loan. Fun stuff, … Continue reading The Bank Of Vibe: An Analogy To Make You A Happier Person
Luck, The Missing Ingredient (Part 2)
This post is the second of a two part series on the “missing ingredients” needed for successful Daygame. Read as much theory and learn as many techniques as you like and grow your SMV and you’ll still need these things to succeed. You’ll find the first post on the quality of “sisu” here. Luck is … Continue reading Luck, The Missing Ingredient (Part 2)
You Do Not Decide Your SMV (plus anchoring, SMV and the SMP)
Recently Pink Panther and I had a debate on Twitter in response to this tweet: He then put up a post on his blog to continue the debate: I messaged PP about this to confirm this is what his theory is and in today’s post I’m going to respond to it: That between a female … Continue reading You Do Not Decide Your SMV (plus anchoring, SMV and the SMP)
Big Sam, Arbitrage, Mean Reversion and First Mover Advantage
Today I was listening to a podcast about Sam Allardyce, or Big Sam as he’s known colloquially. For those not familiar with him he’s a football manager who’s famous for taking the helm at struggling teams and saving them from relegation. Because of the way his teams play he’s often ridiculed but what’s not widely … Continue reading Big Sam, Arbitrage, Mean Reversion and First Mover Advantage
Daygame Dopamine Revisited (The Molecule of More)
A few years ago I wrote a series of posts about happiness hormones and how they affect Daygame. That was all based on an interesting book I read: Habits of a Happy Brain by Loretta Breuning. Recently a friend recommended another, similar book, to me: The Molecule of More by Daniel Lieberman and Michael Long. … Continue reading Daygame Dopamine Revisited (The Molecule of More)
How to Keep Daygame Statistics
In this post we’re going to have a look at an effective way to keep Daygame statistics and when and how to step away from them. When I started Daygame I immediately started recording my stats. I’d come home from my session, open my laptop and add the sets to my spreadsheet. In fact, since … Continue reading How to Keep Daygame Statistics
Fueled by Randomness
Randomness is quite often a good thing; let’s look at why in this Taleb-inspired post. One of the questions many Daygamers asks themselves is ‘how many sets should I do?’ ‘How many sets is enough?’ ‘How many sets constitutes a hard day’s work?’ In other words (with regards to the last one): ‘how many sets … Continue reading Fueled by Randomness
Introverted vs Extroverted Daygame
I’m beginning to see a growing schism in Daygame: introverted vs extroverted Daygame. The former is defined by the number farm technique; go out there and in a short space of time overcome your natural introversion to collect a pocketful of numbers, which you gradually whittle down to the lay. The technique is the same … Continue reading Introverted vs Extroverted Daygame
