Okay - I may not be able to do 8h a day every day immidiatley. It's a difficult transition to make, but I will make a conscience effort to put in more hours every day, untill I am eventually albe to play for extended peroids of time.
Played a preety solid game, didn't make any terrible calls which is good. Once I learn to play longer I see no reason that I can't make 3-4 buy ins daily so long as I'm not cold-decked. Many of these players are absoluley attrocious these games are not difficult by any means. Here's examples of today's hands.
Poker is indeed a game of hours not results - this is something I wish I had realized earlier, I checked my lifetime winrate @ 3/6 via Pokertracker and im making just a little under 11bb/100, which is definatley maintainable given the calibur of these players. I used to just stop if i won the first 2 or so all in pots and call it a day. But if I was break-even or losing for the day I would continue playing as long as it took... Which is not the correct way to approach this game. There's no reason I cannot make 50k+ a month even jutst playing 3/6 NL full time. This number is very achievable - 50k/ 30 days = ~$1670/day. With a winrate of 10bb/100 (10 is a nice round number) this can be made playing ~2800hands/day which equates to about 6h a day 8-tabling. If I 8-table for 8h+ there's no reason 50k/month cannot be achieved.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us and as we let our own lights shine we unconsciously give other people permision to do the same
