Objectives for August

I played one further short session on July 31st, although I played on my desktop PC, and therefore without the support of PT. I played two tables of $50NL for just over an hour, to complete my bonus at PokerRoom. I won just under $50, so I ended July winning about $550, which I am absolutely thrilled with!

I feel like my game has progressed a long way in July, so it is time to set some goals for August :
  1. Increase my BR by $1000 (including rakeback). (I anticipate earning around $250 in RB in 10k hands of $50NL in August)
  2. Play 10k hands
  3. Post lots of suited connector hands on my blog (My PT analysis, prompted by Dodgyken's link last week indicated that I am losing money on suited connectors!)
  4. Watch 3 CR videos per week, and take notes on key points raised
  5. Focus on making better player notes - colour coding alone is not enough!


If I can achieve the above, I will be bankrolled to take a shot at $100NL by September 1st.

Good luck to all for August!

  • GL with your goals $1000 is a big ask so gl with that. I was reading in the spotlight on cr that childs guy this week there was 1 line that stood out to me about the videos

    "Many of their decisions may not be verbalized, such as quickly folding a marginal hand in early position without even a thought. Paying very close attention to the hands that are played/not played, why they are played/not played, against who they are played, and in what position they are played/not played will really help anyone develop the full potential of their game."

    And player notes i have the book killer online poker 2 and it has a section specially for this. I try to get 1 consept from every book i read and ive got 3-4 from this 1 so far its worth a look up.Ebay or amazon youll get it.

    Anyway m8 best of luck with the month.

  • Good luck with the goals for this month.

    You can never have enough notes on player's. If you play with them regularly try and spot patterns in there play - how they play Pairs etc and what hands they raise with and where from.
