I'm kind of cheating and counting Rakeback + Tourney + Staking $ and all considered, I had a breakthrough record month of $30k.
After only putting in just over 10k hands last month (I was traveling though), I made huge strides in my personal motivation and production. I played about 100 hours this month, and probably spent 40-50 hours just reading books and blogs and articles about entrepreneurial startup. This is for sure the field I'm going into after poker and I'm really passionate about being able to just start something from the bottom up and test myself in a field like that. If anyone is similar, feel free to pm me your contact info I'd love to talk to as many people as I can about the subject.
Poker-wise, I made some breakthroughs as well. First of all, multi-siting is the nuts and is the easiest way to psychologically diversify in poker. I ran terrible at Stars the entire month (which explains the -5k over 16k hands in the graph) and was convinced it was Stars punishing me for releasing that 4k bonus lol. I ran well at iPoker and FTP, and do okay on ongame. I ensure that I always have good 6max tables running and lots of heads up action regardless.
I might keep playing but I think this is a good time to take a break on the month. It's my birthday today and although I don't really care for my bday, I've been really stressed out lately from overworking myself. It's funny because I just read Tim Ferriss's 4-hour Workweek which teaches you how to mitigate stress while increasing productivity, but that led me to increase productivity SO much that it led to me being even more stressed out.
I've also started a heads up staking/semi-coaching farm to try to and automate some portion of my income. I think it's a very lucrative deal on both ends.
I'm close to about 100k in earnings this year but I don't want to graph it until I actually have 100k in pure cash profit without counting rakeback and tourneys. Hopefully I can make it because I've always wanted to have a $100k graph within the same calendar year (I always make a new database after each year).
That's about it for now. I started a twitter to update poker and business related stuff, if you're interested check out www.twitter.com/kevinyko I promise I won't tweet about lame stuff throughout my daily life.

I have learned from poker that being at the table is not a grind, the grind is living and poker is how I pass the time | |

Browsing through your hand histories makes me wonder that you might not be aware these games are possibly play money. Have you ever tried to cash out? - Kapol | |
