I run my own business, so probably put in close to 60 hours a week. Also raise Weimaraners, which takes a chunk of time each day and I have a pregnant wife. So I don't have alot of free time for anything.

Still get in around 40-45k hands a month right now just playing on my laptop. Hopefully will get to 50k without too much trouble soon, as my new 28" monitor is coming tomorrow. Be splitting my play up then some between my laptop and my desktop. Should be able to play a few more tables at a time using the 28" and one of the 20's I already have.

I have 8k more VPP's to hit Supernova, which I never thought was possible for me. Now I just need to learn how to actually play. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Boooooooooo poker.

$400+$40 sucked balls. Came in around 50/141. Once again was never able to build a big stack...lost an all in race, blah blah blah.

$200+20 sucked balls. Lost an all in race early, surprise surprise.

Talked to dealer girl again it doesn't look like she has enough free time to hang out, except maybe Sunday night.

I am going to feel so pathetic if I don't get over 5 figs this month. If I dropped below it I will hurt myself.

Why, you may ask? Because I am getting $8,800 in bonuses.

LOL


DLM;

I know all these things and it is absolutely why I am doing it. I am doing a lot of things to improve my game that I am unfortunately not going to share w/ you guys :P. I want to be a 10/20 FR reg when it runs, a 5/10 reg at 6m, and a 3/6 or so reg at HU by the end of the year. Also, want to be beating 1/2 or 2/4 Omaha and playing some tourneys.

These are all 2008 goals of mine. I will still prob. be playing 80% FR because I basically need to grind out a couple 200k years before I'm 21 and I feel grinding 2/4(20-30%), 3/6(30-40%), and 5/10+ at FR may be the best way to do this. Regardless I will be mixing in the other games and hopefully just improving and becoming a well-known higher stakes winner. Actually, I don't give a [censored] about the well-known part, as all my SN's on the sites will all be unknown :P

[Mr_Donktastic]

perhaps. or it could be that she doesn't have days off anymore cuz she has to deal the main event.

[iponnet]

I am negative with set over sets this month because this [censored] [censored] keeps happening die in a [censored] hell fire lee u ahfeohwfhoheoiwhfoiwehfaoweihfoiewh

Kcheel, what are pros/cons of Weimaraners? Know a little about them but not a lot. Have had Labrador Retrievers but have decided to forego the hair, smell, and skin issues next time. Can't beat a Lab's temperament though.

Hope your sister is doing okay, and congrats on the baby!
