Didn't finish my sentence..

Nope, just be lucky!

lol, live was actually a lot different. Even though the field was "tough" for a random $2k, I still had an edge for sure. I don't even know the basic ranges except to play tight early, start opening up ranges more as we get deeper, basic pot odds/postflop play. Basically a fish, so I'll only be playing the easier ones every now and then

u know im a fish!

ty

haha i was wondering what u canadians speak for a language

as for doing well, meh...

congrats on the bink

^ month so far at hypers. feeling a little more confident about my game, but still quite a ways a way from where I'd like to be

Also recently bought a share of Pocarr, which is a micro-mid stakes staking/coaching group. mostly for MTTs. they're actually still selling some %s if anyones interested

I'm pretty free for the next week or so, so hopefully I'll finish off SN, and maybe get in ~1.5k games for the month.

Also staking 10+ people now, mostly HU players, so that takes up a little time too

Plan right now is just to grind as much as time allows, which isn't too much. I think if I had no other obligations I'd have a decent chance of being at least a 200/300 reg. maybe I should take a year off school

..not happening

Just hit SN for the first time ever obv I'm a fish, should've got it 6 months ago etc but

[x] Supernova

sharkys been super annoying, just not regging anything all day. Then had it going crazy for the past couple hours... sat prob 50 reg games late. Then I realized I had dave's one-click reg script on...

Anyway, def most games played in a "day" @ ~250.. and it's almost 7am now so my sleep schedule is officially ****ed got some school work to do tomorrow/Friday, should be grinding again this weekend

November

[x] 2k games
[x] be confident playing again
[ ] pass midterms once again close...

It's been a pretty sick month for me in terms of poker. Luckboxed the tourney early this month, but more importantly for the past week I've been actually grinding focused and hard. I hit SN before the past week but was playing terrible and just autopiloting a ton still. Then I started grinding with "DanielLiu" on 2p2 @ school and played the most focused I have since last November/December. It also helps I ran awesome.



Showed chips cause this one looks better than the $ one.. only up $6.2k in EV. Ran around EV at 200s and under in 60s/100s. 106 hours played.

Staking around 10 people now and won't be looking for more for now. Don't wanna risk over-doing and going busto, esp since I'm mixing in mostly 100s-200s now.

December goals

So hoping for a good finish to the year (not like I haven't had enough rungood for this year...)

[ ] pass all finals
[ ] 2k games at 100s/200s
[ ] focused while playing

Will be tough with finals, mom coming to visit, christmas, and LA/vegas trip with friends (actually can't play in US!)

edit: [ ] 10k
cause everyone loves money goals

I imagine its a sick grind between you and daniel hehe

nice month!

2013- 200k gogogo?

Month so far

ABI is $157

just came back from LA/Vegas trip w/ my friends. exceeded expectations - 9/10 would go again!

Recap of 2012

I did also mention:

Total profits should be around 100k. Not the most ideal way to make it ldo (up like 50-55k in MTTs?! lol...) but it's there.

Here's the graph since I started this thread/restarted poker:



2012:



It's been a big year for me. From working hard and starting poker back up, to staking/coaching, to hating poker, to binking MTT scores, and finally finding motivation to grind again. I'm thankful for the opportunity I have, as well as everyone who has helped me - all my stakees, GF, and pretty much everyone else in the poker community. I've learned a ton about myself this year, and it's been really fun.

Moving forward

These will be the main goals:

These goals are pretty realistic and reachable, while the $/last 2 goals will be the hardest. But what are goals and challenges if they're easily reachable? In my mind anything >100k year I'd be happy. I'm sure all the other things will come along as long as I stick to it and don't lose myself in any way.

Tentative plans:
Jan - grind
Feb - midterms and Malta
Mar - grind/midterms
April - grind/finals
May/June - travel Europe (don't see much grinding done, so must grind hard to get the $ for this trip from Jan-April)
July/Aug - enjoy Vancouver summer for once, grind hard
Sept-Dec - too far to plan ahead but I'm guessing it's school/grind

This thread died off after a few months but it's been fun to keep track of what happened. I really enjoyed it and will be starting a 2013 thread tomorrow.

GLA! Hope everyone has had a good year, and if not then 2013 can always be better.

been a nice year man, keep it up!

Gonna start a new thread?

did you include propbetting in yearly profits?
