Haha..I still am hoping to get day 3 out haha. Unfortunately I have been working 44+ hours a week for the past 3 weeks and its not leaving me the time I would like. Nothing like getting up at 5:30am and not getting home till 5:45pm to kill my poker time.

I'm joking. Yes, it's about 163K hands. I'm going to go for Supernova next year unless I run poorly over the holidays.

And I FYP. Stars lets you 24-table now. I seem to break even when I play 9 though so I don't think I'll be trying that out. Can you imagine trying to play 24 tables of short handed limit? 12 already takes all of my Starcraft skills.

Edit: Just for fun. If I could 24 table (which I probably could in terms of screen space on my set-up, although the tables would be small), keep up with the action enough to at least break even and average 100 hands per hour at each table, I would play 2400 hands per hour. If I put in a typical 3 hour session I would make around 2800FPP per night.

So, that comes to 23 nights of 24 table poker and I could make Supernova.

1) 55k VPP points (need 100k to get 400k bonii before year end)

5) try to focus on the longterm instead of shortterm
6) Finish the intellgent investor
7) Stripper bill under 1k$

Re: November Goals Threat!
 
i felt like a total loser last month for not playing as many hands as i should have. i still ended up with 40k hands, but this is unacceptable given that my mt ratio has been +7 for a while now and poker is my job.

so,

goal is to get at least 70k hands.
