I will be updating my new target (100k hands in 4NL SH with a winrate of at least 10bb/100) on the right sidebar of this page. As of this post, I am at 62,000 hands already with a winrate of 15bb/100. My old stat is still the winning style in this limit but I'm trying to mix up and play LAG from time to time.
Work. 4months into my new work as an IT Specialist and I'm feeling 'sick' already. I think there is not enough challenge on my new work. Instead of gaining experience and knowledge, I feel degraded and demoralized. Well, this is reality I guess. I love my profession honestly so I need to believe that all of these that are happening to my work right now is preparing me for a better opportunity (I'm soooo hoping for this one from this 'big IT company' nonetheless).
Poker. With all the downtime in my work at the moment, I'm seriously considering playing full-time again. Our old group, Korporasyon, has plans to start a new operation with the help of a poker friend (hipe). The plan is better this time so I hope they'll still accept me when I quit my job.

No more monetary Goals.
My December. Food, Booze, Food(Spaghetti), Presents, and FISH. I went close to being BUSTO in online poker last December. My online BR is below $400 to begin 2011. It is very alarming so I did study my poker data and why I'm on a big downswing. Here are my observation/s:
- I started losing big when I stopped recording my poker session data in www.checkyourbets.com. I thought I let my EGO enter my room when I stopped recording at CYB.
*** action item *** Create a new CYB account and record data before and after online session (I started doing this last 1.1.11).
- I play looser when I play more than 6 tables at a time. I don't know but I thought I was playing tighter when I play 8 or more tables but my poker data proved me wrong.
*** action item *** Play 6 tables maximum at the same time.
- I love being LAG but I must admit, high variance kills me.
*** action item *** Study 04NL SH and 10NL SH HH and go back to playing TAG and winning poker in this microstakes. LAGgy style of play will only be practiced only in 10NL SH once I reach 50NL SH.
- Minus all the big losing session (which include a 25bis & 18bis downswing session, etc) I would have been okay.
*** action item *** Review how to handle TILT and follow the golden rule on TILT. STOP playing when on TILT!!!
- I must say on a 44k hands on 04NL SH with a winrate of 15bb/100, I am crushing this limit. I should start playing 04NL SH this year (2011).
*** action item *** Play 04NL SH until I play a total of 100k hands (I have 44k hands already so 56k hands more). Move to 10NL SH when after 100k hands, my winrate is greater than 10bb/100. If winrate is less than 10bb/100, I'll play 20k more hands to achieve a winrate higher than 10bb/100.
With the points above, I am now canceling my original Goal. Instead, I will focus on my action items and prove to myself that I can get this right and that I'm a winning poker player. Shoot me some comments if you have any suggestions. THANKS!
