Message: [QUOTE="Insomniac_1006, post: 636810, member: 25274"] [COLOR=#800000][B]1.) Practice walking away from ring games, when the blinds reach me and I have doubled up.[/B] [/COLOR] [COLOR=#800000][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][B]Well I played in a "play money" on line ring game and forgot about this goal, but remembered it after I had quadrupled up. Took two orbits to leave at the proper time. It's hard to leave when you are winning, but I know that ultimately this will be a key to long term bankroll management for me.[/B][/COLOR][/SIZE][/COLOR] [B][COLOR=#800000]2.) Have fun playing poker. (I take it a bit too seriously) at least sometimes, at least on-line, sheeeeeeeeees, this is going to be an interesting goal to work on. [/COLOR][/B] [B][COLOR=#800000][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080]Have been working on it, but like the above goal, remembered a little too late after snapping at someone who sat down at our table, who thought we were done with our SNG, and starting asking me to move things. I was in the top three and really wanted to take first. [/COLOR][/SIZE][/COLOR][/B] [B][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080]I realized that I was being far too serious and apologized to the guy. After he left, I said out loud, I need to lighten up and proceeded to practice chatting with the remaining players. Also chatted with a few between games. So progress has been made.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/B] [B][SIZE=+0][COLOR=#800000]3.) Practice putting people on hands. [/COLOR][/SIZE][/B] [B][SIZE=+0][COLOR=#800000][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080]ummm, I'm not too good at this yet and paid/accepted the consequences of my actions.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/COLOR][/SIZE][/B] [SIZE=+0][COLOR=#800000][B]4.) Don't quit my day job. [/B][/COLOR][/SIZE] [B][SIZE=+0][COLOR=#800000][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080]Haven't yet, but am putting out the word that I will be making a transition in February, assuming I avoid a major tilt episode with my boss. Ah, practice for not tilting at the tables.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/COLOR][/SIZE][/B] [B][SIZE=+0][COLOR=#800000]5.) Study poker, offline, for an hour a day. [/COLOR][/SIZE][/B] [B][SIZE=+0][COLOR=#800000][/COLOR][/SIZE][/B] [B][SIZE=+0][COLOR=#800000][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080]Most of what I need to study is too difficult with my level of burnout from the day job, so I am happy that while I have not done well with the specifics of this goal, namely studying offline, I have been studying for two hours a day.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/COLOR][/SIZE][/B] [SIZE=+0][COLOR=#800000][B]6.) Perfect the 6 chip shuffle. [/B][/COLOR][/SIZE] [SIZE=+0][COLOR=#800000][B][/B][/COLOR][/SIZE] [SIZE=+0][COLOR=#800000][B][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080]100%[/COLOR][/SIZE] [SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080]Couldn't shuffle a single chip at the beginning of the month and am know quite comfortable with 8 chips.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/B][/COLOR][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
