Jordan 1 Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 I'm up $407.85 - edited cuz im stupidI actually havn't played but two days this month cause I was on life tilt from the "ban" and from busting outta the PS main event.I been playing PLO and I played one $600nl session and been doing alright.I am limiting my MTT play, however I am trying to win a seat into the Dublin EPT and won my seat into a $450+25 satelitte thru a $5r turbo. LOL. So I saved myself $400 or so there, hah.Hopefully I get my seat, I'd love to go to Ireland...and be able to play poker there too.I'm really going to try hard and just grind out a respectable win this month, get some things flowing again like I'm used to. Hopefully a nice run will get me started this month.- Jordan Link to post Share on other sites

Nice run, hope it keeps coming man! 3/6 down swings can kick you in the balls REALLLY hard.Ya, definitely play $50 NL until you get to at least $1500, IMO.$50 NL is easy enough to beat, shouldn't take much time.

BudBundy 0 Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 Lost 11 Buy ins.Have i tilted?Not really.Did i play bad?Not really.How do i feel? like this.I ran into straight flush with nut flush 4 times.Run quads with Highest full hours 3 times.That gives an idea of how i lost at least 7 of the buy ins.

BudBundy 0 Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 in any event, maybe things will go better at the Real Money tables.I so wish it was play money.I didn't know this was possible.My confidence is hugely damaged.Can variance take away my 11 buy ins in 7 hours 4 tabling?Or am i just lying myself thinking i played good?I only had 6 losing days in the last 34 days of my PLO game.*****And people say 20 buy ins is enough.Bullshit.I am glad i still have 80 buy ins for my level.

RickyG033 0 Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 MY first shot at doing this:Primarily a tourney playerStaarting Bankroll: $900Heres my list:1. DO NOT PLAY ANY CASH GAMES ( I lose so much money here)2. Make 5 Final Tables (about one a week)3. Play at least two Sunday Millions or Bigger Buyin Events.4. Finish in Top 500 of PokerStars TLBOk well heres an update. 1. I played cash games and got my @SS kicked. Im so dumb. I VOW TO NEVER PLAY ANOTHER CASH GAME.2. I have made one final table. 2nd place in a 300 max player tourney ($9 buy in)3. Have not tried to qualify for this yet.4. Currently 2782, so I have some work to do.I started the month very slow, running into a bunch of cooler situations. Flush over Flush, set over set, flopped set vs. flopped straight, etc. etc.I have tightened up and made a final table last night, just trying to keep it going now.TIGHT IS RIGHT Link to post Share on other sites
gaddyjr 0 Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 I'm a couple of days late, but I thought I would add some goals as well. I love the idea of this thread as goals have been extremely helpful for me in the past. - profit 1k playing 1/2NL- profit 1k playing 2/5NL (don't play as much)- play 1 $100 tournament and show a respectable resultI don't play online and only get to play every Thursday night. I'm off to a pretty good start from last night so hopefully things will continue to go well.Good luck all. Link to post Share on other sites
