September Progress
Weird, (yet character building?) month at the virtual tables so far. Just a week or two ago I was totally demoralised and having a horrible time. A 40,000 hand breakeven stretch starting from mid August through till a week or so ago, and just a ton of beats saw me have by far my worst run ever. Very hard to get through. Anyway in the last week or so things have totally turned around and I just finished my best session ever. Im also back in the hunt to beat last months record so fingers crossed for the next 8 days or so. Variance, and the luck in poker never ceases to amaze me about how much it can change your results.

August Results and September Goals
August was a pretty good month, ran great for 3 weeks and then had a totally brutal 20k hand breakeven/downswing for the last week. My biggest downswing ever, which included losing a incredibly painful $800 pot when I was a 96% favourite on the flop. It was totally demoralising and a very tough week. Still, it was a record month for me so I cant be too unhappy. Outside of that, ive had a cold which has sucked. Here are my August goals and how I did, and my goals for September.
Passed
Kinda Passed
Failed
Play 10,000 hands of 400nl required for staking.
About 70% of the way through, probably would have finished by now if I had not run crap, but my confidence was hurt so I thought it would be best to sit out of 400nl for a few days.
Increase confidence playing at 400nl.
Getting there, still feel like im playing slightly weak, and im afraid to lose a stack.
Play 25,000 hands of 200nl.
Easy, played about 35,000.
Go to the gym min 3 times a week.
Failed, I was on track at the start of the month but I have a cold which has seen me out of gym action for the last 10 days or so. Feel lazy and unfit, looking forward to hitting it again this month.
See my mortgage broker and start preparing to buy a house.
Kept putting it off and didnt do it.
Finish my current Uni Subject.
Handed in my last 2 assignments and got credits.
Watch more DC videos and actually pay attention.
Passed. I have been taking notes watching the "Ringside" and "Freestylin" vids which is great, I have also been watching the "Mathematics of Holdem" series which has helped my maths game alot.
September Goals
25k hands of 200nl
10k hands of 400nl and finish my current staking deal
Start working on my new uni subject
Do my (fucking) tax return
Finish watching "Mathematics of Holdem" DC Videos and rewatch some FR ones
Go see my mortgage broker
Fitness stuff...
Go to the Gym 8 out of the next 9 days, and 3 times a week from then on.
Get a new gym program (because im bored with the old one)
Make sure I eat 3 meals a day and have protein shakes
