Unless you're trying to get some sort of bonus released, I don't think playing any more than 6 tables is really all that necessary. I tried 9 a few times this year, and it was just too robotic for the most part. I'm sure it gets easier the more practice you get, but I'm happy with 4 tabling.

Well I lost 100 this month.. Did some good sweats and didnt do enough hand history reviews. FT a deuces cracked tourny with a bunch of coaches and mid stake players so that helped my confidence.This month going to have a winning month doing just fundamental poker. Started up a deuces cracked 50k volume challenge. So going to grind and build the bank roll to attempt 25NL again.Kosin Trouble

Made my first FT at a .25 45 man today in a long while, got immediately busted with a A9o versus a 76o, flopped pair, he ran the double. I had to burst my bubble.

That's the point. Once it becomes easy and feels normal its no longer robotic. If you're a four tabler and jump suddenly to nine tables... it's too much of a jump for you to make that smooth transition.

I has 60k this month (plus like 500 SNGs or something, maybe less) and feel like I didn't put in nearly enough volume. Not meant to brag, I'm just sayin its all relative :-pI could do 50k in a week EZ. It'd be a 60 hour playtime week, but very doable.

MehhhhhhhAlso, I only have a 22" monitor with shitty resolution imo. (Samsung sync-something 22-somethingsomething) Once I get beyond 6 tables they get sooo small and that tilts meSo I'll prob just play 4-6 and be good with that
Just overlay. Action always pops up top smoothly.Also I came upon some mobnies so I will be moving up up and away very shortly :club: Gonna bolster the roll and shouldn't have to make withdraws for some time.

"Mixing it up" doesn't magically rationalize anything you do. It's like you walk up to a pencil sharpener, pencil in hand, and think, "Everyone expects me to sharpen this pencil, but I'm going to mix it up." Then you whip out your cock and sharpen that instead and yell, "Ha ha, bitches, you never saw that coming!" Well, no, they didn't. But you still have a dull pencil and bleeding dick.

Oh god, I used to play the first hardcore. I wish I could play the second. I hear playing both poker and starcraft makes you better at both. Also, starcraft gives you piano fingers. Triple plus, easy town.

NOvember went okay I guess. Stopped keeping track of mtt's, because i was running awful, but my roll seems pretty intact so I doubt I lost that much.Did finally get Goldstar, so that's nice. Plan on playing a ton of cash in December, and playing some HU on the weekends. Would like to take a couple shots at a higher limit as well if I feel I'm playing well enough.Posted Image

I didn't play the last week because I was watching a 5 day sporting event that ended in a draw. (good times )so my 26k is respectable.
