Once again I completely fail in the hourly department, as in not putting in enough hours. 46? lol. Just spent a lot of time fucking around with friends and took the entire week of Thanksgiving off. On the upside I am doing well with my efforts to stop paying off when fish bet/raise me. Still donated at least $1000 but that beats last month. These were also like really obvious spots to fold, I.E. fish fixated on board like there was a gun pointed to his head, heavy breathing, aggressive betting pattern completely out of character from previous hands, etc. Man live is such a goldmine when it comes to tells, but I just had to see to make sure I wasnt misreading them. There's a super aggressive black dude I play with sometimes and he is always sitting deep, and often plays 5/10. He said something to another player one night, "ay mang, when the fish bets you fold!" as he snap folded a river raise. I'm pretty sure he's spewy (I've won multiple 50BB shoves vs him with Ace high) but he at least knows that much.
So my primary goal for next month is going to be putting in those damn hours. I keep doubling or trippling up, getting nervous with a 300BB stack and just bailing from the table with as little as 3 hours on a few occasions. For December I am going to just hump it out no matter how deep me and my opponents get, using a basic stoploss in BB's to know when to quit. For instance if I hit 500BB stack or something and lose 200BB's, well I'll consider that losing 2 buyins regardless of my overall profit and quit. There are just too many players making too many mistakes to pass up on this edge.
In the meantime I really want to buy a new toy. I'm looking at a used 370z to replace my current econo crapbox for roughly the same payment. You can pick up one of these for around 22-23k

46 hours is 1,300-1,400 hands. At this volume you can easily downswing over multiple months. Something I underestimated when I decided to play live full time was how hard it is to play your A game and put in volume while down swinging. So for me, putting in low volume on a good month (profit wise) is really really bad. |

Oh yeah I'm well aware I have a laughable sample size here, and that I must be winning at like 80BB/100 which is nothing more than a pure heater. Couldnt come at a better time though going pro on my own, I have saved all my poker money and just let bills/expenses ride on my credit cards preparing for the inevitable downswing so I have max cash available on hand. |

i've never had more than a 3-5 bi downswing in years of playing live poker. It might not come if your games are soft enough |

If you have debt you really shouldn't be thinking of buying a car. Debt is slavery, interest is rape. |
