November Thread: Goals, Winrates, Updates

[Talking Poker]

Well, we're halfway through the month, so I guess it's time for an update. Wrapping up my worst day EVER right now, this update is gonna sting. Ugh. Today was really, really, really bad (down about $4000). I feel like I played ok for the most part, but I also missed damn near every flop for 600 hands (is that even possible???), and my opponents just clobbered me. The funny thing is, I didn't even have very many HUGE pots where I got stacked or anything... it was just a very annoying downward spiral all day long. On thing I have learned is that the good opponents at 5/10 NL are a LOT better than the good ones at 3/6. They are MUCH more aggressive, 3 and 4 betting regularly. This doesn't go so well with my style, where I like to be the aggressive one. No tilt, btw.

Anyway, enough crying... on to the goals:

1. I'll make this goal easily. I have 8800 hands logged - 2000 of 5/10 and all the rest 3/6.
2. This shouldn't be a problem either. I've only "missed" two days, meaning I can miss 3 more this month and still make it.
3. Hmmm... I think I've only made ONE so far in November. Guess I'm gonna need to get on that - I should have made one today instead of getting my ass handed to me all day long.
4. Yesterday, I was on pace for this. Today, not so much. I didn't quite piss away ALL of my winnings for the month, but I am up just $1700 now.... That's a LONG way from $10,000, but I can honestly say that I have been running pretty badly this month. Yes, it could definitely be worse (I had a couple of streaks where I ran well), but overall, I've definitely been running below average this month... at least I hope I have been.
