My goal:
To be able to buy this boat by the beginning of next summer.

It costs about 60K give or take so I'll have my work cut out for me considering I'm stuck playing 1-2NL right now and taking 17 hours each of the next 2 semesters.

Also I'm planning on giving away some money to a charity next semester and I was wondering if anyone knew of any good ones that are reputable. I'm like the idea of disease research and stuff like that and that's probably what I'd like the money to go to. In the spring I gave to the American Cancer Soc. then afterwards I found out from a couple different people that they weren't so good, so this time I'm going to do some homework before I donate. Any suggestions yall have would be greatly appreciated.

My goal was to play 2,000 hands a day for the month of August. I just get distracted to easily and lost complete interest after 800 hands. But look how good I am at poker though. My new goal: 35 ptBB/100. This is most certainly sustainable.

How do you guys log so many hands? Do you take frequent breaks? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I usually try to play at least 2-3 hours each week. But YMMV.

Alright bitches, I'm back. The easy fishing days of July in NL600-1000 are now over. Prepare to collectively meet your doom!

Assuming I remember how to use a computer with a real american keyboard.


Also, a month spent all over Europe, paid for straight cash by poker winnings, was quite awesome. Will probably put up some pictures or trip reports or something soon.

Play 50k hands at 200NL at 5 PTBB/100. Play an assload of WCOOP sats with FPPs. Lose weight.
