Here is my month...

This is all at 50NL.




For September, my goals are:

- Finally see the Illini football team win some games while I am at this school.

- Play 15k hands of poker this month. Maybe throw in a table of 100NL when I'm feeling frisky. I've only played about 10k hands total of 50NL, so I'd like to play at least another 10k to see if I am just running super hot or if I actually might be decent at this game [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

- Get GoldStar (which will probably take a bit more than 1k hands, but is attainable).

- Continue playing well and not tilting.


Pretty standard stuff...

Why don't you guys ever move up? If you made 10k this month plus a preexisting roll then you should definitely be rolled for 3/6.

You talking about me? I am def. rolled for 3/6, lol, I just am still trying to learn the game. I have only been playing 9 months and am decent but not great yet. I mean the 8k or so from play is only 2ptbb. I think I need to improve and keep analyzing my play before I move up.

I still have a lot to learn about this game sir, so that is my reason for not moving up right now. I should be playing some 2/4 this month depending on how I run.

You guys are sick, I have a winrate of >2ptbb/100 in ring games but I just don't put the hands in and lose so [censored] much in donkaments, HU, and 6max.



Ok, my goals for this month are no 6max or HU then and no SNGs over $25 because I also suck at those. Should be pretty easy, but I lack discipline. Also, another goal is to attend >75% of classes (I have one thats a joke and I won't go to much, but should go to the others).

I don't play on FTP, sorry [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

My biggest "downswing" of the month was like 2.5 buyins, I've read that 3-buyin downswings are pretty standard. Also, I only 4-tabled for the most part, and just began 6-tabling the last 1.5k hands or so. I think it would be harder for me to go on a 5+ BI downswing just because I play a fewer number of tables at one time and have good discipline to quit if I'm playing bad.

By posting the graph I'm not saying 10+ ptbb/100 is sustainable, I know I've been running good for the month. However, I don't think my swings will be quite as wide as the players who play 8+ tables at a time.

no kidding. I had an 8bi downswing in my graph and I'm a standard TAG, 4bi's of which were two outers on the river.

Someone who played a maniac or LAG style would be in for terrible variance.

I don't normally set goals because I can't play nearly as many hands as most of you, but I generally like to maintain at least 50 cents per hand at the levels I mainly play at, 2/4 and 3/6. Last month about $1 per hand, since month had some ups and downs near the end so near 60 cents pr hand.

Prodigy, good luck at 2/4 shots, maybe I'll see you at the tables!
