20k hands at 5ptbb/100 at NL200. July was a disaster.

Im not sure what my goals are honestly. Its hopefully to continue to make a decent rate per hour. I don't want to toss number around since Im not sure how many hours I'll be playing..

Hopefully I can have a 9k bankroll by the end of August and potentially take a shot at $2/4 NL.

I saw some people complaining about action buttons dissapearing on PartyPoker on multiple tables. Anyone have any problem with that here?

[Vavavoom]

I am playing 400NL again and hopefully can grind out some decent monies...

If I had a 10K month then I would be ecstatic....except I go to Ibiza for 10 days from the 8th - 18th !!!!! So probably not that likely....

However, I will not play the monster tables on Party....


And would Neuf_Noir and PeeringGaze please not play on every other regular table....These guys give me a headache....

Vava...

by the way, in the last hand I had 21 outs going into the river. Might as well had 1.

[NT!]

I have my first dilemma of August.

If I count my shots at 5/10 and 10/20 last night (after midnight, technically Aug 1st) towards July, I get my 40BB/100 for the month. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

3.2k hands / 14k profit

Sickest month EVAR

If not I'm still off to a decent start for August

[DeeJ]

you think 77 is bad? SB was in for most of his stack pf playing J3 ! yee gotts

[MYNAMEIZGREG]

Last month I played 50k hands, I wanted to play 75k like I did in June. So, I guess, 75k hands, $35-40k.

lol I didnt even notice that till after I posted. I guess I should have stayed in the game but iv learned from experience to just get up when stuff like that happens. It was a big turning point in my poker career and has ensured that I havnt had a 5+ buyin downday in over 5 months.
