calls - this gives us the most information, as the tag will raise when he has a piece of the board, and we already have odds to draw to our nut flush 69 75.82%
raises - hoping to push the tag out and get headsup with the lag for a turn cont bet. We're sure that the lag doesnt have an ace because of the pf action, and he may fold the turn on a blank after our line. If the tag threebets we'll just call and draw t 12 13.19%
raises - hoping that the tag will reraise so that we can cap. we want as much money in the pot as possible with this hand, since our equity is at 35% 10 10.99%

Default ZEUSQUEST 2006

so I've pretty much blown off poker the first week or so of this month, and im barely up any money. so I'm making a BBV-driven quest of poker life, with the following guidelines.

1) Start playing tomorrow, when my new bank accoutn gets finalized.
2) Play 8+ hours a day. This seems impossible at first but I have a LOT of time on my hands and like $$$
3) Start out playing 8-10 tables, but if I find that's too much, be willing to drop down to 6, 4, or even 3 tables.
4) Average 250-300 $/hr minimum. I know this doesn't sound like a lot to you "big ballers" but since I'm playing an assload of hours its understandable that I won't make my normal hourly.
5) Play at least 20 out of the 25 days left in the month.
6) Play in the following limits 20/40LHE - 500/1000LHE, 5/10NL - 50/100NL, and NO DONKING AROUND IN OMAHA.
7) Stay out of bad games.
8) Post updates daily to motivate myself.

Seems like #7 is the one that people have the hardest time with.

If you play 500-1000 LHE, you are almost guarenteed to break the "Stay out of bad games" rule.

Are there really 10-12 good games of 20/40+ running 8 hours a day? What constitutes a good game? I'm sure you'll win money and I doubt you'll play the 8,000 hands a day you're planning.

This is forum for bragging, not begging.

250-300$/hr sounds low if you 8+ table NL1000+.
