birfday
Yay Im finally not a teenager anymore (not that it really means anything). Had a good start last night with some people coming over and chilling out at our apartment. Played some beerpong and got some cool gifts from people. Got lucky my bday was on a Friday this year cause I only have 1 class and it starts at 1pm (which was 15 minutes ago, oooops) so I got to recover from last night and sleep in. Im getting "kidnapped" by my gf later so the rest of the day should by fun.
Played a 1500 hand session and was able to run pretty good (ty stars for the present) and won $1.8k. Was kinda card dead the whole way through and ran pretty nitty(12/10). I feel like I played really well and didnt spew hardly at all. Some hands
Love 5/10 donks

best month ever :)
Results for September
+4.5k in bonuses=
~$29k
Overall Im really happy with the way I played this month. I felt like I kept my tilt to a minimal and did a really good job of not playing when I was tired/pissed off/didnt feel like playing/was high etc. This is all really exciting since about 6 months or so ago I was a marginal 1/2 6 max reg making a few k a month and know Im making like 10x that. Im having a hard time deciding if I want to keep going farther in poker. Obviously Id like to make as much money as possible buts its really hard passing up on a pretty stress-free 20k a month salary(assuming Im not lazy). I think Im gonna take a few more shots 3/6 and 5/10 the next 2 months or so and see how it goes. Im pretty sure my first 20k hands up there have just been bad variance but the competition is a lot better and Im not sure it will be worth my time.
Anyway here are my October Goals:
1. >50k hands (I need to get 50k VPPS the next 3 months to get the 500k milestone bonus so its gonna be close)
2. $20k: I think this is probably going to be my standard goal from now on. Including bonuses I think this is challenging but reasonable at the same time.
3. More shots at 3/6+
4. Game select better: This is very important for #3. Sometimes I get lazy or over confident and will sit in reg infested 3/6 games which are not very +EV. Need to only play when the games look good.
5. Keep learning about investing. This is something that really interests me and Id really like to become knowledgeable about. I have a few investing books and I need to put more time in reading those. Id really like to be able to manage my own portfolio in the next few years
