August Thread: Goals, Winrates, Updates.
 

July sucked, tiltiest month Ever. I still won a little more than 15k, but it was a very annoying, badly played month.

For August:
Play 40k hands at 5/10 NL
win $32,000 (4ptbb/100)]
Don't Tilt
Don't take any shots at 10/20 NL

Now, your just pissing me off.

This is my favourite thread from 2p2. Good idea bringing it here.

30k hands of 200 and 400nl
6-8k
ZERO tilt
WIN a donkament

mine too, and it will be soo much better here, since it wont get 1000 replies and u can actually find ur posts. and update with how good/bad ur doing.

I'd like to make an August goal too, but being out here in Vegas, I'm going to play live (hard to make a goal for that)... when I get home though, I'd like to hit he $400 NL some more and see if I can crank out maybe 5k or so hands (I doubt I'll play that many) with a decent win rate.

My longer term goal is to start playing more regularly online, start building a decent bankroll and moving up in limits. I want to catch up to JD one of these days, and make enough from cash game that I won't mind dropping some dough for some big buy in live tourneys throughout the year.

Is it an "August Goals" thread, I presume?

only 3 ppl with goals?
lame
they dont have to be big impressive goals, just anything.

I will be playing mostly MTTs so I'll make a simple goal...

I want to win a seat to aleast one WCOOP event this month.

I'm mostly addicted to my recently purchased Xbox 360. For August, my goals will be a lot less than they usually are. 10K hands at 600 NL on Bodog and UB.


JD, don't you only play with one monitor? You are going to have to play a whole lot of hours to get 40K hands on 4 tables.

Roughly 200 on each table, based on 50 hands per hour.

Seriously assholes, lets go.

UPDATE: Day 1 = super gay. Won a donkament (215 W$ wowowow). Lost almost 1k in cash games. Poker sucks.

My August goal
 

My goal is to make $500 this month. So we will round up and that means that my bankroll needs to reach $3200. I am playing $100NL.

semi goal
 

I have started playing very very rarely now, mainly just tourneys, dont want to play cash games at all. Next year during the world series I want to join one of the side events, maybe 1k or so buy in. I really want to say I tried it at least once. Plus I will have 3 weeks of vacation and my wife wants to spend a week in Vegas and told me If I had the money for the event I could play in it.

so my goal for this month is to stay away from cash games and just concentrate on becomeing a stonger tourney player. Going to stick to very low buyins $5 and under. I dont need to win alot I just want the experience.

My goal is to make at least $800 this month, as I am out of work (REALLY bad day and a looming 50 hour week made me snap) and this would pay the bills at minimum. Managed to make enough to cover the last 2 weeks with those Titan FTs, would've been better if I hadn't been stupid and clicked on the shiny Party BJ button at 5am though. :mad:

I am taking August off, so I have no poker goals this month.

i usually play on my 13'' laptop only, 8 tables at about ~102 hands per hour.

ive been playing 4 lately cuz my laptop went out and my bigger, older desktop, could fit the tables easier, but its so old and slow i fugred out that at about 7 tables it freezes up, ive been trying to do 6, but i didnt play at all yesterday and prob wont play any today. i go in huge spurts.

Getting ready for a move (to a state with Neteller!!!:) :D :thumbsup:

gonna be playing a lot more. I will post some MUCH more modest goals than some here later on.

GL to all.

My goal is simply to be more awesomer.

UPDATE: 2 for 2 in W$ sattelites. Seriously these things are soft as hell. 391W$ in the bank so far. Hmm, maybe Ill try to get to Barcelona as well as play in the WCOOP. This is gonna be a good month.

do it dude, im thinkin of doing it too, i got $475 in W$ to try their qualifier with.

Im gonna play at least one of these, let me know when you wanna jump in one.

I have three engineering buddies interning in Germany right now, and they all said Barcelona is tits, literally.

Does anyone else want to throw up when NLHE:T&P suggests open limping? Im sorry, but if im playing a pot, I want money in that pot to play for.

Also: concepts 33, 34, and 37 single handedly made me all my money in my cash games today. No brainer stuff really, but just getting it down solidly and applying it everytime made today a piece of cake.

We've all been wondering how long you "never playing online poker again" would last. Now we know!

I'll play with you guys too, if it's after I get home next week. I need to start hitting some more sattys for big events.

Sounds like this should be in a new thread, yes? Not in the August Goals thread???
