Change:

1) 2BB/100 2 tabling 3/6 6max for 10k hands.

2) Make $3k from all poker this month, however build up the skill for much more profit for later months.

1. Well, I'm trying to move up to 5/10 at the moment, and for the month I have 6700 hands at 5/10 and 7900 at 3/6, so I'll just put both of them together and I'm running at 1.93bb/100 so far, but the month isn't over yet.

2. Done---

To September goals

I originally posted this in SS, but I've been hanging around HUSH for the past month.

Okay, a good month, I think. I moved up, and have played 25K hands this month, winning around $2500 not including rakeback or bonuses. I don't know if that's what "making 3/6 6max my bitch" consists of, but it's at least a good start.

I've been reading the new Harrington book and thinking about the concepts. I don't really play many NL tournies, but it's on my list to do at some point. I've been listening to the WSOP netcast and Phil Gordon's WSOP podcasts at work, thinking about the M's and Q's of the players involved in the various hands while I code.

I haven't made it down to the reservation, but that's okay. I've got tentative plans to go next weekend on Saturday, but even if that doesn't happen, I'll be going to Vegas in late September for the first time.

More about that in the Sept. goals thread, I guess...

Well, my law school is about to be swept away, so that's not really happening.

2) Get better at poker.

I hope this is happening?

3) Move back to 5-10.

Happened, but I'm "taking a shot" with 400BB currently.

This was more of a fun/don't burn out type of thing, and it worked out nicely.

1. Play a lot before going back to school. (50K+ for the month would be great)
<font color="green"> More like 45K but it's worrying because I had very little time once school started.</font>
2. Kick as many students as possible out of my classes in the first two weeks.<font color="green"> Mission accomplished. Only 1 student that will be a thorn in my side left. I don't think I can get rid of him though. </font>

3. Make sure playing 10/20 doesn't affect my emotional well being.<font color="green"> Doing reasonably well at this. Had my first single day 100 bet loss and took it in stride. Feeling pretty good. Coaching really helps in terms of confidence. </font>

4. Stay at 10/20 all month.<font color="green"> Went through a 450BB downswing this month. I moved down for sanity sake and continued to lose. I did however move up once I hit rock bottom and have recovered nicely so far. </font>
