speaking of which, does anyone have a good spreadsheet in Excel or Word set up I could use ? Also how do you make those profit charts ? TIA

I'll give it a shot, but with a new baby here I'm not sure if I can accomplish these or not:

1: finish reading Hold'em Poker for Advanced Players
2: read HoH vol 1
3: get my SNGs back on track
4: maintain June's ring game BB/100 rate of 20 BB/100 (big bets)

My other son will be comg to visit for the summer in late July so it may be difficult to accomplish #2 and #3.

Not sure if you have PokerTracker or not since you said "Start tracking results", but most of the ones posted around here lately come from PokerGrapher - overcards.com: The Poker Wiki and it takes the info from your PT database and makes pretty graphs.

1. Play 10K hands at $25NL
2. Take shots at $50NL by the end of the month
3. Get my winrate at the 7PTBB/100 at least.

1. Play at the local casino once
2. Build my BR up over $500 (it's at $450 atm)
3. Reread one of my Sklansky books

1) Read HoH.
2) Get br up to $250 then cash out and start again in august from freerolls
3) Learn how to play turbos and win in them.
4) Play more stud, pl omaha, and 72 triple draw.
5) Have a nice holiday in spain.

How about being a little bit more ambitious and trying to double it?

Stop making deposits to Poker Stars.
Stop wondering why I can't draw a fly to a pile of shxt

Make a $100 deposit at stars.
Use the information I've been soaking up here for 4 months.
Stay within my bankroll.
SNGs and MTTs only.
Post 1 hand of every session I play for advice.

1. start up a new rounders token bankroll on the prima network
2. cash in the $200-250,000 guaranteed at least once (get their via satellite)
3. Make my first trip to AC
4. Transfer some of my bankroll to pokerstars at some point

I forgot to add that I want to be a more aggressive player. I play pretty much TAG, but I want to loosen up a bit and get involved in more pots and with more hands.

I basically want my opponents to fear me at the table when Im in hand. I want to stop playing too tight and weak and really later the players at the table know I wont be afraid to get involved in a hand.

play this month
maintain previous winrates or better them

* Final table at least one $26 GTD tourney on Full Tilt.
* Get back to 100 max by the end of the month. (Had to drop after downswing.)
* Start building a BR again on Stars.

How did you do in June?

Mine would not be in terms of number of tournament or Sng ( i'm already playing way too many of these )

I should say :
1) Keep the monthly balance in positive numbers (if possible in 1000+ like in june )
2) Stop sucking near the bubble with stupid plays ( like a unnecessary all-in call with Ak vs At with 2 T on flop on a 50+4$ tourney if you need exemples of those )
3) Play more rings games : i'm really doing good on these (especially on 0.5/1 limit games) but i don't like playing ring games : i prefer sng and tournaments for the competition and classification.
I need to do a mental practise : " You love ring games. Limit cash games are your friend" Hopefully it will work finger crosses

1. Make at least 1 final table with 600+ people in it.
2. Keep my bankroll positive and only have to deposit once
3. Stop limping in with total crap cards
4. Stop limping period
5. Work on my game a lot

1. Get my total online BR(5 sites) over 1k
2. Play more cash games
3. FT at least one MTT of $5 or better
4. Take a vacation with my wife
5. Actually play less poker, more profitable

Cash in a MTT [ ]
have a profit in my bankroll [ ]
master Rampaging [ ]
Start listening to my Instincts and make folds when I know I am beat after the flop. [ ]

ditto

1. Nope, I only went through about $220 in entries (instead of the $330 goal).
2. Yes, I read five:
--Broke, by Brandon Adams
--Your Worst Poker Enemy by Alan Schoonmaker
--Hold'em Poker Kill Pot by George Bosma
--Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, by Hunter S. Thompson (ok, not poker, but I'm countining it)
--Picasso Flop by Vince Van Patten.

Well, with the month almost at a close, to review:

1. Made it. Right now, my total stands at 1,100 and some change, over 5 sites. BTW, one site gone and 1 added during the month. Down w/Cake, go Nordica.
2. A big part of how and why I accomplished #1
3. Didn't get there; did FT the 4.40/180 twice, though, 4th once, 6th once.
4. Sort of. We did manage to get away to Lima,Oh for 3 days. No kids,no pets, just the 2 of us.
5. Again, sort of. Actually spent fewer hours in front of the 'puter playing, and did make some nice BR gains; still no big $ payday to report. It's coming though, I feel it.

Good work by me!

I'd like to get at least another 3 poker rooms downloaded and tested so I can post a more realistic goal for next month, and if they'd hurry up get my epassporte account funded,lol.

Great idea these threads, will keep up with them.
