End of the month update
After not being able to play for a couple of days, my laptop magically got fixed and I ended the month strong.
I'm exhausted and played badly today, but I think I improved significantly this month.
Partially because of off the table work, but also by explaining my thoughts through coaching.
There were tons of great games this month and I ran well at every stake. Super ****ing happy with 88k in profit!
I'm still winning at nearly 6 evBB/100 this year and running a bit over EV overall, so I definitely can't complain about running under EV this month.
I didn't manage my 70k hands goal because of the broken laptop, but 57k is decent volume.
Next month's goals
-Play at least 60k hands. Playing big and running good is fun but I have to stay disciplined and keep the volume up.
I don't set monetary goals anymore; Anything can happen, so I am mainly focused on playing well and playing good games.
-Watch more training videos. I still really like them, but I watch less and less of them nowadays. The goal is to watch at least three full videos a week.
-Do more work in spots I am not comfortable in, since I mostly play badly when I haven't done work on a spot and I am unsure of myself.
