Well, April went better than I ever dreamed. I ran well, played insanely good poker, withstood some brutal beats and still maintained 10PTBB/100!!!

No to mentioned finished with a BR over $2k for the first time ever online (including RB)!!! I am so damn proud of myself. I started playing online, as a serious player and not a monkey, on Feb. 12. Someone, last month, asked to see my graph for someone who played strictly live (1/2, up thru 5/10), coming into online NL...Here is the graph from then until now:



As you can see, something 'clicked' about 40k. And I've been very pleased since. Feel free to AIM or PM me any questions for those that want to.

May Goals:

-Improve my game, as always

-Live my quotes that I have on my monitor: "Monkeys will get lucky...Just don't let it affect you", "Slow Down, Think, and Patience", "Forget the Money, Concentrate on making the Right Plays!!!", and finally, "Good players lay down the best hand all the time...I don't mind letting others bluff me, because all I have to do is catch them once and it pays for ALL the other times they bluffed me!"

-When I start feeling my game slipping a little, during a session, QUIT and stop making monetary goals that I feel I have to make before I quit!

-Play no more than 5 tables at a time!!!

-Put in 14k hands in the first 3 1/2 weeks this month. I am heading to the WSOP with 5 friends June 1-10, so gotta get the money out in time

- Continue posting my ??? hands and be more willing to help others who come to me for help.

-If I do the above, I'll be tiltless..so work on it!

SirFelixCat, are you in any way, shape, or form, related to Stuart Smalley (Al Franken) from the old Saturday Night Live skits when his famous quote is "I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and dog gonnit, people like me!"

I believe my April goals were:
1. play 10k+ hands (check played 14k hands)
2. earn at least $500 (check $1500)
3. remain at 100nl (check 10k hands were at 100nl)
4. Get better at school (..still working on that, but not exactly on schedule)

May goals:
1. 12k+ hands
2. $1000 profit
4. play 100/200nl exclusively
3. Get a scooter, for ease of traveling across the city
4. work out more a.k.a. go to a fitness school
5. Get better at school

Edit: 7. play one of those big donkaments, finish first and thus having a roll for 600nl

April goals were:

1. Play at least 30k hands - Nowhere close, only 17k.
2. Move up to NL $200 - Check, about 14k hands there at 5.5 PTBB/100.
3. Get my BR over $10k - Not quite, roll is $9.2k after April RB.

Goals for May

1. At least 40k hands. I'm going to play a ton once school is out.
2. +$8k - should be doable if I put in the hands, would more than double last month which was my best ever.
3. No shots at NL $400 until my online BR is over $10k (shouldn't take long).
4. Only take shots under ideal conditions - buddy listed donk, good position.
5. No regular play at NL $400 until my online BR is over $12k.
Keep spew / tilt to an absolute minimum.

I could do so much better than this. I also had to withdraw $500 for living expenses so I'm gonna grind NL50 for a while to get a large cushion for NL100, which will be my permanent "home" before the end of may. Oh well, it was still my best month ever and my roll has kept doubling every month since I started playing so I really shouldn't complain. I have some obvious leaks in my game that I'm aware of but haven't gotten around to fixing them yet. That's what I'm gonna work on this month.

Last Months goals
1) Get a coach
2) Move to NL50
3) Play more hands
4) Get back in shape (life goal)

I got a coach. Spent half my BR on lessons so stayed at NL25. I am about half way to rebuilding it. I played a ton of hands and logged my first 9K hands month. I started running again and ran a 10K last weekend (longest distance I ever ran continuously).

This month:
1)10-12K hands
2)Rebuild BR for NL 50 and move up aided by said coach.
3)Post hands for analysis. (I hate doing this but it is time to get serious)

4)Running distance up to 8 miles on my long weekend run. 4 miles for my weekday runs.
