Tournaments make you want to blow your eyes out.

but being deep in a tournament where the money is meaningful is the best feeling in poker.

Anybody interested in swapping some %s of each other in the tourney tomorrow? I'm probably willing to swap up to like 25% total, just to reduce some variance/make it interesting.

(Obviously the offer is nullified if we get put at the same table, cause that wouldn't be cool)

Anyone think playing 17.5/14 at 5/10 and 10/20 is leaving money on the table?

If you're capable of playing a more open, aggressive style very well, then probably yes.

But I do think that 17/14 or whatever is certainly profitable, if you're playing against the fish. And obviously, you should be.

I played pretty good in Septemper, but still it feels like I got outplayed by bunch of 2+2ers. Like Billyjex, Duh, wwwBTHEREcom(if he is 2+2er) and RikaKazak. So outplaying 2+2ers is something im trying to concentrate in October ;-)

Goals:
-50k cash game hands, should be easier now that WCOOP is over.

-I dont like setting money goals, but if I could win enough to cover my expenses I would be happy.

-6-10 table more, in Septemper I was lazy and often played just couple tables at the time.

-Stay away from limit holdem.

- Play little more online omaha.

I think the whole VPIP/PFR thing is kinda stupid. Just play the style you are most comfortable with.
If you are happy playing 17.5/14 trying to play 26/22 or w/e will likely lead to disaster.

Last month I focused too much on playing X hands and my winrate suffered. I did manage to earn 10K rakeback which was sweet but now my ego is a little fractured and this month I would like to win at >6 BB/100 again. My new 30" should help me focus while still playing a lot of tables I hope [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I guess 50K hands at 6BB/100, and yeah more time at the gym etc like everyone else says
