troyomac 0 Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 I have been steadily losing money playing tournaments. So my goals for this month are:1. 20K hands of ring game.2. No more than 10 MTT's (they are addicting, this will be hard, plus I alread played one today.3. Keep taking shots at 5/10NL (I have took a few this week, starting with 11buyins and ending at 17.5)4. Work out at the gym 2-3 times a week (self confidence is good for poker)5. Make 10K. I have never even dreamed of a 10K month before, but if I get 20K hands in, I don't think it will be a problem.

CobaltBlue 662 Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 I've run decently well since my miserable July, even though I've cut back on my hours. So I'd like to put in 70 hours in October, continue to grow my roll, and with any luck return to be a winning SHLHE player. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted October 2, 2006 Author Share Posted October 2, 2006 KYNOuch.As an aside, I do have more money set aside, that can replenish the roll, so 15 buyins is just what I have in my Stars account. Link to post Share on other sites

navybuttons 15 Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 i went BUSTO! live. dealt with the mental aspect suprisingly well. i was crushing the game but i had life leaks that leaked into the bankroll and didn't have the guts to drop down when i should have. i still have life leaks (drinking) but i got the $100 bottle of champagne leak under control. i also learned the last lesson i will ever need about br management.i'm going to turn october into the sickest comeback anyone has heard about. i have a lot of huge goals coming up in the next 6 months. once i achieve them i will post my journal somewhere online.goodluck all.

Sysvr4 0 Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Hey guys,I've been meaning to post this for a while, but have had no time due to work and a house remodel. But I see a lot of you manually posting your BRs and progress here and I wanted to mention a little programming project I took upon myself a while back that covers this exact purpose:http://www.mobney.comIt's free, you can share your results with others, you can even just make the graph public and include it via <IMG SRC> tags in your blog.Anyway, flame me for "spamming" if you want, but you might keep in mind I'm not making a dime off the site. Just thought some of you might find it useful.Jeff Link to post Share on other sites
pokerfan1080 0 Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 While I may not have reached my goals for Sept, I've done ok.My bankroll has maintained itself, it's about the same. But, I was very close to busto a few weeks back. I hunkered-down and managed to grind it back to where I started at the beginning of Sept.I decided to purchase Poker Office. I'm extremely excited about this software. I hope it will help me plug up some leaks.That being said. I don't seem to be getting the results I use to in the SnG's and Mtt's. I will still play them, but I'm going to concentrate on ring games because I've been doing fairly well with them.Hope to build my BR by Oct end. Not going to set an amount, just as long as I can increase it I'll be happy. Link to post Share on other sites

AcesOnFire 0 Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 You moved up to 100NL with a $500 bankroll. This is 5 buyins. I'm hoping for your sake that you go on a crazy rush as 5 buyins is nothing. $500 might not even be enough to survive variance at 50NL.Same with you. You two might want to think of having atleast 15 buyins before playing at the level you're playing at - unless you have no problem with redepositing.Does it help I'm two tabling 100nl with a 50nl table? :P100NL is standing at 7.2 BB/100 after 2.5K hands.

spikymarv99 0 Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 My new goal of the month: get my roll out of Party ASAP and find a new site to play on. Sad times. Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteSpade 0 Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 But I cashed lol, yeah I know, but you're turning into a bad influence. People are going to lose their rolls trying to be like you.I wouldnt mind being like you either... in some aspects. I've been through thunder bay In all seriousness, I use a 15 buyin rule for NL myself. I just can't imagine multitabling with only 5 buyins. Link to post Share on other sites
CobaltBlue 662 Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 After a crummy first day, I turned October around with a nice little $1.5k MTT cash. That puts me a little over the $10k profit mark for MTTs lifetime...so that's cool. Link to post Share on other sites
