January Results
04 February 2008
January ended up being a super month for me, and not just because it was in the green for the first time in a while. I actually made a lot of progress in terms of figuring out what I want from poker and laying out a plan of action to get myself there. Baby steps, son... baby steps. I'll start the pot out with some graphs (everyone likes pretty pictures), then the numbers, then the analysis of goals and areas of improvement. Key thing to note is that most of these stats are from Absolute Poker, and I'm still adjusting my play to that particular site (I wouldn't necessarily say that 20/14/2.4 is my normal game). And without further adieu:
January Results:
Table Profit: $723.57
ABS Bonus: $120.00
ABS Rakeback: $110.39
PokerStars Reward: Nintendo Wii
January Goals Review:
- 2,500 total hands / wk -- COMPLETE (barely made this... 2 tabling 100nl hurt the overall hands though)
- 100nl shots at least 1x / wk -- COMPLETE (see above)
- Sustain > 6 bb/100 for the month -- COMPLETE (achieved almost 2x this goal... I runs hot)
- Stop the tilt (institute -2BI stopgap) -- COMPLETE (only occurred once, but I immediately quit so 'yay')
- Watch 2 instructional videos / wk -- COMPLETE (CRE & PokerTrikz... Leggo & Deuces Cracked next?)
- Read professional nlhe (100pg) -- COMPLETE (finished first 2 sections)
- Read the poker mindset (100pg) -- INCOMPLETE (this is important... need to make time)
- Start blogging again -- COMPLETE (isn't this evidence?)

great results and discipline.
However, I don't like the win rate goal because that is out of your hands.
