Ok this is something I have been meaning to do for a long time. My background has always been tourney poker and I have known for at least 2 years that I need to become much better at cash and spend a larger portion of my time at the tables playing cash.
I had one cashgame thread/challenge that fizzled last fall because almost immediately after starting the challenge I won a seat into a big poker tourney that was 3 months away and I had to focus all my efforts on studying for that tournament.
so here we go, the re-boot.
The focus of this thread will be to discuss sessions, hand histories, mental game issues and make and track goals for myself.
Currently, I mostly play $1/3 (about 90% of my cash time) and $2/5 and $5/5 the remainder. I'd like to increase the ratio of $5/5 while at least maintaining my current hourly rate.
If I filter my results to just $5/5 and lower then I'm currently making $40.73 per hour over 214.5 hours. I'm averaging 15.56 BB/hour (I know it's a small sample size, it's what I've got)
Goals:
to play at least 4 hours a week of live cash increasing my ratio to at least 1/3 of the time at $2/5 or $5/5
maintain or increase my hourly rate
be more aware of my mental game, A,B,C games and signs of tilt in realtime
