3/6? Only 20k hands? Why don't you just quit poker? And we all know you can't hold your liquro Mike! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: August Goals Post...
 

1) As always, focus on better value betting and better blind play.
2) Play 20k hands of 10/20 6max in the first two weeks to rebuild back to 20/40.
3) Play 15k hands of 20/40 short in the next two weeks.
4) Take a 100BB shot at 30/60 by the end of the month.

Re: August Goals Post...
 

1. Get better at poker

Re: August Goals Post...
 

1) Play as much as I can. I dont think a money goal is very good, even Pros have losing months.
2) Read Theory of Poker and Inside the Poker mind.
3) Take a shot at 5/10 when I feel ready.

Re: August Goals Post...
 

Study the Bible with the same intensity that I study poker.

Re: August Goals Post...
 

75 hours on the month online, a very tough goal for me while maintaining my stringent table selecting standards. I don't know how many hands this will translate to but I'd guess 15,000 tops.

Re: August Goals Post...
 

Play better than I did in tonight's session.

Perfect.

Re: August Goals Post...
 

1) Play 20-30 hours a week until school starts, since I won't have anything better to do.
2) Try and move up to 5-10 when I get a decent amount of big bets at that level, say 400.
3) Spend a lot more time reviewing my sessions in pokertracker and posting here.

Re: August Goals Post...
 

1) play lots of 10/20 6 max

Re: August Goals Post...

Re: August Goals Post...
 

1) Watch England beat Australia in the test series.

Re: August Goals Post...
 

Win Legends WPT event

Re: August Goals Post...
 

Get to $2k at $1/$2 and $2/$4 6-max at PS and cash out 500 and move 600 to Party Poker.

That's about it I think.

Re: August Goals Post...
 

1) Finish my last 14.25 workdays in style before my two month holiday.
2) +3 BB/100 @ 5/10, 20k hands.
3) Not take another stab at hanging out with the mean motherf%!&#ers at 10/20 that have left my balls shivering in fear in a corner somewhere after my last attempt.
4) Squeeze in at least one more round to the local casino and continue my 100% hitting quads-ratio (live play is so rigged).

latest odds on australia to win the series are around $1.18 (after the familiar crushing that was the first test) - i mention this because i did tell the readers of this forum a month ago to back Oz whilst they were paying about $1.60

your going to have a sad month but the good news is that the games themselves will probably be over quickly

currently i'm loading up on matthew hayden to score the most runs for Oz - i'm getting $7.20 or 6.2/1 at www.betfair.com which in my view is comfortably over the odds - if any of you sad pommies want to have a shot at easing the upcoming pain i'm happy to share some of my action ?

The way the weather is looking over here right now I would not be surprised if we've already seen the last ball of the series.

Re: August Goals Post...
 

Well school just started

20k 5/10 hands, while continuing to improve [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: August Goals Post...
 

1. Play a lot before going back to school. (50K+ for the month would be great)

2. Kick as many students as possible out of my classes in the first two weeks.

3. Make sure playing 10/20 doesn't affect my emotional well being.

4. Stay at 10/20 all month.

Re: August Goals Post...
 

Figure out when I can fold to river raises in the 10/20 game.

Re: August Goals Post...
 

1) move out
2) play 10k hands
3) don't miss any classes

Re: August Goals Post...
 

1) Play 20-30k hands of 10/20 SH.
2) Play good and don't let swings affect my mood.
3) Continue to improve my game.

I don't want to set a goal on $won since I can't control variance and I want to be able to succeed with my goal. If I could keep my winrate from last month I would be a happy camper.

Re: August Goals Post...
 

(1) Move to 5/10
(2) Not lose my shirt at 5/10

I went on tilt once this month, albeit for a very short time. I'd like to not do that this month
