February Goals Post
 

Its that time again. My goals:

1) Get in the usual 10k hands. I actually managed to get about 11k in in January, that was nice.

2) Slow down when playing. Often I find myself making a decision without really thinking through all aspects of it. Maybe I'll adopt the Rory "sit on my hands" method.

3) Start taking shots at juicy 10/20 tables once my roll hits that magic 10k number, which it should in Feb.

4) Finally have a winning live session in Tunica.

Re: February Goals Post
 

Finish off about 6k or so more hands at 3/6 until I'm satisfied that I'm a winner and move up to 5/10.

Get a 2001fp, unless Party switches completely over to the Beta, then I might put off getting one.

Not make stupid decisions like deciding to call someone down before the flop.

Not making stupid call downs that are futile.

Fold the losing hand more often when it's obvious that it's the losing hand.

Start bluffing in the right spots instead of the absolute worst ones.

Re: February Goals Post
 

1) quit running bad

Re: February Goals Post
 

Well I'm not going to hit my goal of 30K for January - it will probably be closer to 23K, so I will have to adjust for Feb, especially since it will be a busier month.

-Do well on Feb midterms
-Figure how to get this stupid video card to work so I can have my dual monitors
-Since my g/f and I just broke up, I should fine a new one of those [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: February Goals Post
 

1. Get 40K hands in (90+ hours)
2. I'd like to get the distribution of hands tilting towards 15/30 and 20/40 rather than 10/20.
3. Take on a couple of new students.
4. Finish getting all my tax documents to my advisor.
5. Try and lengthen my sessions back to 1.5ish hours. Playing tons of short sessions is inefficient.

Re: February Goals Post
 

1) Start using PT/AceHUD again (I went the whole month without using it to work on my "pure" reads).

2) Play a few more unsuited connectors and one gappers. I think there's some value I'm missing by not getting involved with a few more of these hands when the time is right.

3) Continue to play more games. I started playing 2-7 TD, pineapple, badougi, and stud8. At the 3/6 level, these games are very good.

4) Read Ray Zee's Stud 8 and O8.

5) Read Kill Phil

Re: February Goals Post
 

1. read some non-poker books
2. exercise
