December review, 2008 preview, general thoughts |
 |
1 | |
I finished last month up about $10.6k assorted. I believe I was up in cash games, break even in SNG/tournies and down in NHL bets. Heres a graph of my December:
I ran sick hot, theres no disputing that. But I hope I'm taking my game to a higher level as oppose to just being senselessly aggressive.
Besides sniderstyle and foolsplay who are regulars that I play with fairly often from LP, I don't think anyone else reads my blog here. So I don't mind too much discussing the details of my game.
I find that in general, my play last month was too fearlessly aggressive and was mostly bailed out by a lot of my draws hitting. Loads of my plays didn't make much sense.
To counteract this, I'm planning on simpling up my play. Going to tighten up preflop and hopefully, command more respect post flop to decrease my variance a bit.
In regards to goals for this year, my original plan was to play less poker. Last year, I probably spent over 1000 hours of actually playing. While I can't complain about the amount I've won and the strides I've taken in the latter part of the year, I felt this was hindering other aspects of my life in that I hardly studied/went out/exercised. Around November, I was feeling like shit despite having more money than I had expected at this stage in my life, and that was when I made the decision to try and cut down on poker and workout more.
Fast forward to late December, I saw that sick graph post and it inspired me to want to win more. Or the greed inspired me, w/e. Now I'm split. I've already paid for the years membership and I think that part of my plan will stay in tact. But somethings going to have to give so I have time to keep playing this much. Not sure on whats going to happen yet, but, gonna have to work that out.
Um, dunno what else to say. btw, saw Sweeney Todd last week, was actually pretty good despite it being a quasi-musical. The story line was pretty good and there were loads of blood and stuff, so that was fun.
A reward for reading to the end of my random thoughts, I'm going to recycle one of my favourite pictures of 2007:
May 2008 be a good one for all of you.

yeah man, im with you with the exercise I think thats a pretty important part of having a healthy lifestyle especially when we are such degens that spend sooom uch time on teh computer. I have to start finding time for that in my life too. It's great that you had such success, I think this next year is going to be pretty awesome for us. Right now , I dont think I've ever played so well and I'm pretty excited for 2008. I hope that me and you continue moving up and by june, july we'll be regulars at 2-4+
Foolsplay can go F himself, hate that guy and his sick aggression / dumb calls
