but what if I have a # of hands for the month bet with mikey and I am behind pace so far? :club: that said, i agree 100%.
lolllll
Yeah, this is the first time I have made one, and I am pretty sure it will be my last, lol. I was just looking for motivation to put in more hands, as I always feel like I could have played more, but I probably should have picked a normal 31 day month to play the most hands I ever have. :ts The $ amount isn't so much that I will be stressed out if I lose, so I am not worried about that affecting me (altho i will def be annoyed).So I am not sure this was the best way to try to play more each month, and like I said I agree that being focused is the most important thing when playing instead of just robotically putting in hands, but it is a fun mental experiment/training for me if nothing else I think.
Since I'm not doing the hand challenge in march (too much traveling) I'm kind of excited to try putting in 40k hands this month despite the lack of 3 extra days. What i'm trying to do is get myself into a habit of putting in a good amount of volume. When I was forcing myself to put in 3-4k hands a dayish, it kind of worked. After 5 consecutive days, it felt weird NOT to put in the hands. Unfortunately I have a problem with putting in a lot of volume, I'm just not that hard of a worker despite wanting it so...gotta force myself with money to do it :4h

This is a really good point.It's weird, if I force myself to play a few days where I put in 800 hands or so (decent volume for me 1- and 2-tabling my HU games), I seem to have no problem doing it afterwards.If there's a reason I have to take a day or two off, getting back to that number is tough, and I struggle to get to 500, which is typically the bare minimum number of hands I want to do each day.For whatever reason, I'm so much more productive if I work every single day. If I take a weekend off, it seems hard to get back in the saddle, so to speak.

I dunno, but he certainly helped turn my day into a nice winner, instead of a mediocre grind.I'm pretty sure I circled the right part.feb112009uf2.jpgedit - looked through my PT a bit more indepth, and he only lost $190 in 19 hands, 2 big ones, so his donation was not as big as my graphical representation.

My 6 year old son just got sent home from school for putting the beat down on another kid "because he wouldn't scoot over". I think he may have some anger issues.
Pics of other kid?
