grinding your little bollocks off
The english phrase, "working my bollocks off" refers to a work rate so exhausting that both balls seperate from the sack leaving the subject with meat but without his 2 vegetables
To full time grinders, how many hands do you complete on an average month. and how many hands do you target yourself to do.
Do you have a yearly target, and will you make it?
i personally try to do 50k hands a month, 600k for yr 2008. ill not make it though, as i go through phases of getting totally bored with it,always when i hit a downswong
ill prob hit 500k if i knuckle down in the next couple months

Re: grinding your little bollocks off
Well for me its a case of 20 or so days playing and 20 days or so off.
I play around 20 days super hardcore, many 10k hand days etc.. then i take the next 20days off to chill, trips, going out spending most of it maiinly!!
It works well, getting in around 150k hands during that period, shipping a rake race or two and winning a nice amount at the tables.
I mean atm I havent played properly for about a month, but next week im gonna start a sick grindathon.
I dont like the opportunity cost!

Re: grinding your little bollocks off
Aim for 50k, consistently fail to achieve it.
Prob for me is playing more than one session per day. I can grind the 1st 2k out easy as u like, promising myself another session later on. Never seems to happen though.

Re: grinding your little bollocks off
Oh forgot to mention, 16 tables so it makes it easier to get in the hands.

Re: grinding your little bollocks off
I don't think 150k hands needs to mean you never leave the house.
If you play enough tables this can be a 30 hour week or less.

Re: grinding your little bollocks off
I think everything under 50k h/mo is pretty part time for MSNL stakes
