Re: September goals?
Thanks Befolder.
I hope that by starting at .10/.20 and starting with $300.00 going busto won't be an issue. |

Similar situation here. Promised my fiancee I wouldn't invest more if I go busto. I highly recommend reading up on proper bankroll management and really understanding what it means to minimize your chances here. I was watching a re-run of the 2004 WSOP Main Event the other day, and Raymer said he was under the same restriction (but with $1k to start). So there you go. [/ QUOTE ] I saw that clip as well. As I said to Befolder I am going to start at .10/.20 and I have $300.00 to start with. I will take your advice about searching out good bankroll mangement practices. I'm sure the search function will give me plenty to read. Good luck to you Quester. Matt |

Re: September goals?
To those discussing bankroll. I went busto (redeposited many times over), but it is possible to do it without if you have the right BR management skills. All my Bustos were pre 2+2 and still technically a hole I am trying to climb out of. <font color="red">In the red</font> though I am confidently a winning player now.
September goals: I only have 2 1. Seriously work on my game. ----Including but not limited to. -5K hands at .50/1 in the black -Decrease WTSD, increase AF (in the right spots) -No bonus hunting just focus on play for a month -2 small (1.10) SnG's a week. To work on tourney and NL skillz -Read: Ace On The River, Little Green Book, and maybe NLTAP -2 tables instead of 3 focusing heavily on my decisions and notes -weekly reviews of my play, including participating in the session reviews. -reply with less garbage and to more hand posts (yeah right) -flesh out some ideas for pooh-bah post 2. Get out of my life downswing/tilt ---Including but not limited to -Limit my total play time to 12hrs. or less/week. So I can focus on other things. -Spend as much time as possible with my father before he moves 6hrs away (moving at the end of Sept).* -I pay 35+BB/month for a gym membership I don't use so I should get back into that. So walking/running for at least 1/2hour 15 days this month. -Be OK with my dad selling the house I grew up in by the time he moves.* -Be OK with my new boss, help my boss find a new asst. mgr., get back to the job I love doing instead of being my boss' asst. mgr.* -quit [censored] smoking -Have a great 28th birthday * sorry if those 3 are a little bloggy but I had to get them out there.

Re: September goals?
1. stay at Paradise 3/6 until all $400 of my bonus is cleared. So much better than ABS.
2. stay away from ABS. I swear that site hates me (and loves Miles) 3. Get in 10K hands of 3/6. If the rest of the month is as good as yesterday I will be happy. 4. Run/play goot in Vegas. 5. work out more, very lousy last month (mainly due to work being busy, I work out at our gym) 6. Reread Zen and the Art of Poker. 7. continue my work on tilt control (I think I have this as a goal every month. Maybe #6 will help. |

Re: September goals?
Poker goals:
+ Consolidate funds from various sites to take a concerted shot at $0.50/$1 full ring. Recommendations for a site with a nice bonus welcome. + Continue to improve 6-max game, though at $0.25/$0.50. + Play live with my friends at school all the time. + Review SSH, ignore HPFAP for the time being. Life goals: + Get senior thesis rolling. + Train hard for upcoming crew season so I don't look like a gimpy old man next to the incoming recruits. + Finish moving in to new house. [aside]Bilgefisher, Befolder, Ampelmann, I can't really think of a "group name" for us. We're far too rag-tag as it stands. [/aside] |

Re: September goals?
1. Not wasting my money on going out 3 or 4 nights a week, so I don't have to keep cashing out my bankroll and dropping down
2.Stop being results orientated 3. Get my W2SD down to around 32% 4. Keep my VPIP at 20% and my PFR's at 11% 5. Post more, but taking a lot more care. i.e not responding with the first thing that comes into my head, after barely reading the post whilst multi-tabling |

Re: September goals?
I tried to think of something. No ideas. I still consider myself a greenhorn...just enough knowledge to do something dumb.
