I havent read any of this thread yet...
My sept. schedule will go like this.

S,M,T,W,F
50 games a day
Thrusday- off

Saturday- parlay day
I have allotted myself $55 to play 1 $55
If at any time I fall below this 1 buy in BR I have to play 11s (during parlay time only) to make the $55 back.

I have it set to play 1k 11s for my regular month, and 4 saturdays to parlay. My parlay may not work out at all, but I have nothing to lose but the time I put into it and the intital $55 investment. Also if I put in overtime and reach 1k SnGs before the end of the month than the rest of my time can be used for parlay.

I want a 25% roi at the 11s for 1k games, and if I am lucky my $55 will expotentialy increase. October plans will be based on how well this system worked for me.

I held to my schedule until the brutal last week where I dropped nearly 30 buys at the 33s. I ended the month negative after over 900 games. No more parlay for me, but that wasnt the problem. I sucked this month. Again.

11s-275-$495-16.36%roi/41.82%ITM (30/32/53)
22s-137-$246-8.16%roi/34.31%ITM (17/18/12)
33s-502-<font color="red">$156-0.94%roi/35.46%ITM</font> (45/56/77)
55s-26-<font color="red">$680-47.55%roi/23.08%ITM</font> (0/3/3)
Total-940-<font color="red">$95-0.4%roi/36.81%ITM</font> (92/109/145)

I suck

October goals include 4tabling only, 11s-22s only, no parlay at all. and a + roi for the month.

Re: September goals/results and new goals for October
 

My goal is 500 games this month. If I play ok the money will take care of itself (eventually)

Re: September goals/results and new goals for October
 

My goal was 300-400 sngs and to clear 1k in rakeback. I played a ton at the begining of the month but then School and partying got in my way plus I picked up hockey about 1/2 way through the month. I still managed 304 sngs @ 17.70 ROI. Also I played some 400NL and 10/20 limit loosing about $600 in the NL and making about $600 in the limit. Since NL cash was my original game I really want to put some time into getting good at it again and at higher levels because frankly I was super rusty and just sucked. Anwyas all this plus $994 in rakeback (so close but so far from 1k) was my lovely month of September. Next month since I'm probably going to be very busy so I'm just I'm aiming for 300 sngs...well see how she goes

Re: September goals/results and new goals for October
 

Had a 50 buy in downswing and then accidentally told Messe Jesse that it was 150. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Finally got even for the month yesterday. [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] 400 SNGS played. (mostly 33s and 55s).
Goals for October: Don't whine unless the downswing is more than 50 buy ins, play at LEAST 500 SNGS, make Empire Leaderboard. ALSO make some freakin money. PEace.

September goals:
- Learn how to actually win a STT instead of getting a bajillion second places.
Nope, but I purchased SnGPT which is a step towards this goal.

- Get my ROI at the 22s up to 15-20% while 4-tabling
Nope! Started off with a nasty downswing and had to step down to the 11s for the rest of the month to get some confidence back. Had 14% ROI at the 11s though, so that's almost what I hoped for [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

- Win at least $1000
Nope! Starting off with a $600 downswing kind of ruined this goal, but at least I ended the month in the green.


October goals:
- Keep working with SnGPT to fine tune my bubble pushes and try to make correct moves automatically.
- Go back to the 22s and stay there with a ROI around 10%
- Play at least 400 SnGs
- Play one 55 tournament to see how big a difference there is, and have some fun [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
- Get prepared for/start 8-tabling by the end of the month

Re: September goals/results and new goals for October

<font color="red"> failed! nearly identical stats. </font>
3. get a good deal on a 2001fp
<font color="green"> Achieved! I love this thing! Everyone should get one! </font>
4. add 5th table and beyond.
<font color="red"> Failed, but I just got the 2001fp a couple days ago so its on now! </font>

1. 250 $55s
2. 5k hands of 100 or 200 NL on Party.
3. "Quit" smoking
4. 1 MTT final table

[/ QUOTE ]

I ended up playing a lot less than usual this month, suffering from a bit of burnout and my weekends were quite busy. I should be back playing and posting a lot more this month. Overall, I did a poor job on my goals.

1. I played 94 SNGs the party 55s, PS 60s, and party 109s with an ROI of 8%

2. I played 2500 hands at the 100NL for 3.5 PTBB/100. I played 550 hands of 200NL for 4.4PTBB/100.

3. I suck at life.

4. I did manage this one - took 3rd in a 15k guaranteed on Empire to make this a decent month overall. I felt like I played my best poker ever from start to finish in a MTT that night, and it was easily the highlight of my poker month except for my 47 hour hu match with Lacky [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I also made the final table in the KOTZ limit tourney, and bubbled in this weeks NL rebuy tourney.

October goals? I suppose I'll keep them the same, and see if I can do a little better at reaching them this month.
