After a horrible downswing and withdrawing 80% of my roll I'm back to 10NL for a while. New game for me though 10NLHU.

1- Play 10k hands of 10NLHU and determine if I can beat the rake.

2- Finish dogishead series from DC

3- Profit and get rolled for 20NLHU

Play $10 HU sngs if you want to play that low HU, the rake will eat you. Seriously.

Another failed retirement from poker by me so I guess for December I wanna continue to learn the 8-game and win enough to move up to .50/1. Hopefully get about 7-10k hands in. Also watch a shedload of DC videos about all the games and start a new blog about my mixed game adventures.

I'd imagine it's because most people don't play poker using slices of turkey as chips!

5. Fold more.
6. Don't worry about downswings and accept them as part of the game.
7. Move up to .25/.50 HU games or at least by ready to move up by January.

thenutpeddler

Top 5 in the IPC
Ft more than one stars donkament
Come 7th or above in Fitz eom
Play more than 10k hands of 100nl hu
Make over 2k live grinding

Lodge into poker again for first time in ages.. Jus chill out at 25nl and try enjoy it for an hour or two in the evenings.

Years since I had PokerTracker/huds etc. so don't think I'll go back to it too serious. I find it much easier to make a 100quid in work for the day.

1) Undo all of november's stupidity.

That is all.

Ran 100 up to over 1k over 20k hands in 50nl in November. Cashed out around 650 for christmas pressies etc, now I'm on a manky downswing. Seem to be on permanent tilt since I went from 400-350-250-150-50 -3 (used my ftp points to win a 26dollar token)-150-300-130 (always seem to downswing after a big cashout). Been sucked out on in both cash and tournies with my AA running into sets, my sets running into flushes...I even had an A high flush run into straight flush...The other guy was so bad I'm convinced he thought he was just calling me with a 6 high flush which was quite tilt inducing. Taking all sorts of wild gambles playin 30 dollar super turbos/200nl when my cash gets low and winning to get my roll back on track. Can't seem to get a decent run going.

The other day I took 80 to a 200nl table. 3 hands in I look at AA. 155 then. About 3 hands later I look at AA again. Flop comes A/10/8. Betting and being called, happy days, next card 7. Still betting and being called. Next card 9/Cry. Why I didn't just stick to grinding 50nl I don't know.

Goal: So my new plan for December is to run like a maniac degen until my bankroll hits 2500 and cash out to buy an imac 27" cause they're sexy.

Goal: So in the next week I'm gonna play lots of mtt's/50nl and either win big or take myself down to busto town.

Goal: Stop playing super f*cking turbo for way more than I can afford. They're like crack.
