Read Zen and the Art of Archery. Finish Zen and the Art of Poker.

Continue exercising, step it up a bit in intensity. Work on swimming form/progress. Increase cycling to 5 hours/week minimum. Two weightlifting sessions per week as well.

Enjoy my one week vacation and strive to think about poker very little during that week.

1) 20k hands. This is an all time high but I will be playing 6max almost exclusively for the first time. 10% 3/6 80% 5/10 10% 10/20.
2) finish reading middle limit holdem
3) finish studying weighing the odds
4) two weekends @ foxwoods playing 10/20
5) stop losing $60/week in the local cardroom's MTT
6) start kicking a little more ass at my real job

1. Clear my $300 bonus at Interpoker, losing less than $600 after the bonus.
2. Read SSH yet again.
3. Fold more on the river.
4. Have more aggression after the flop.
5. Kick some ass in division four at the Scrabble Nationals, a game where I actually have an iota of skill.
6. Play some B&M poker in Reno while I'm there. Any recommendations? Any non-smoking?
7. Post some damn hands.
8. Have another ESWL.
9. Check out Yahoo! Personals and see if there's any more than the same six unattractive women that there were a year ago.
10. Play 5K hands at no worse than -2BB/100.

I am absolutely 100% positive than I can accomplish #2.

No surgery. Torn ligament, no cartilage/meniscus damage apparently.

3 additonal goals:

1. Make one really solid contribution to the forum which I plan to write up while I'm on vacation. Probably won't be of much help to the posters on this thread but may help all those dudes out there whining about how SSHE has ruined their games. I'm mostly a lurker and an occasionally annoying and/or snarky poster. I've gotten a lot from you guys and I want to give back. Somebody's got to fill Chief's shoes--yeah, right. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

2. Its looking like I'll be on a full-time project starting in September. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] It is hard to pass up 20BB/hour [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] to do my second favorite thing in the world (okay, 3rd favorite thing, but I don't get paid for my favorite). So another goal for me will be to figure out how to balance work/home and still play enough poker to continue to improve. [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] I've been CRUSHING 2/4 for two months now and I'm close to being bankrolled for 3/6. I was planning to start taking shots in September...we'll see. Of course, full-time work means full-time $$ which can't hurt the BR. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

3. Use more emoticons: [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
