Currently at 3/6 6max
1. Still 5K hands to go for August to meet my 25K goal(day job)
2. Post 30K for September w/ more than 2BB/100(sort of tough because I'm moving)
3. Control spewing and follow my instincts
4. Increase my blind steal to atleast 30% (currently at 27%)
5. Get ready to move to 5/10 (50K 3/6 and 1000BB for 5/10 is the goal) by the end of the month
6. Read TOP/SSH again, improve my poker math(correct phrase?), post more hands and involve in the strategy discussion on the forum
7. Avoid the temptation to add a 3rd table no matter how good the table is - I just suck playing more than 2 tables of 6max

[/ QUOTE ]

Played only 7K/30K but am at 4.2BB/100 [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] .
Blind steal is now at 32%.
Moved to 5/10 well ahead of my prerquisite 50K at 3/6 6 and 1000 BB.
Did not read TOP/SSH.

Did not play a single hand in 2 weeks. Overall, totally failed with my August goals - I suck. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

Here are my goals for September in order of importance:

1.) Meet a ton of cool new people at college and make it a great experience

2.) Keep in touch with the people who are important to me, and maybe make some trips to turning stone with my buddy Mike.

3.) Try to balance poker well with school, adapt to playing a little less, but still try to clear 10k or more per month.

So how about you guys?

1.) Although trying at times, it has been a good month and i am meeting lots of cool new people
2.) Me and my good buddies talk all the time
3.) I would have quintupled my goal is i wasnt a moron and actually took the last 2 days of the month off like i was going to, but alas i will live, i ran good this month [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

My September goals were

1. Play 80 hours. Nope 60

2. Make 1.5K. Nope $700

3. Take a shot at 2-4. Nope dropped down to .5-1

I learned that I can't beat 1-2 which is hard as hell to learn after hearing all of the great people on this site overall a disapointing month.

3) Booooo. I hit a 250BB downswing at the beginning of september and then largely broke even for the rest of the month. Down ~$1200 after the end of it. TGFRB!

didn't post goals in the other thread...my Sept goals:
-12 hrs/week...so that means around 15k hands
-fully adjust to and get used to playing 10/20 6m
-run average...which would be much better than the last month and a half...which would mean probably +$3k-$4k
-stop getting pwned by LAGs
-start playing some small stakes NL (prob NL100)
-do well in school in what is likely my toughest schedule thus far

[/ QUOTE ]

-did pretty close to this in hrs and hands
-yep, hopefully will stay at 10/20 6m
-ran quite good for a change and beat my earn goal by a bunch, about +$8k including a $1.2k LHE MTT 2nd place
-getting better, still working on this
-yep although I still suck at NL
-we'll find out soon enough
