Back to work
Ok, so I've played a bit of poker over the past few days. Yesterday, I played pretty poorly and ended up losing. I was quite disappointed with my play as I made a few horrid decisions that cost me my stack right away at the beginning of the session. I think it's very important that I watch my starts of each session... if I have a really bad start it's difficult to recover.
Today I played much better, winning a total of $2.7k at $2/4 NL over about 5 hours of play. Hopefully I can continue the winning track, as I'm now up about about $1.3k on the month. It's very early yet in the month so I have a lot of time to get in some good days and long streaks of winning sessions. The plan for August isn't to have my biggest month ever; it's to just get back to winning a respectable amount that's going to make me 100% confident in my game again.
Normally, it's a bad idea to set monetary goals because you can't control the luck factor, etc. but I'm going to set one anyways for this month to help keep me motivated, disicplined, and give me something to shoot for. I'm going to try and make $10k this month from actual poker playing profits. We'll see how it goes.
Here is the hand of the day. Finally, a little run good! His shove is pretty interesting though...
