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 Gonna bolster the roll and shouldn't have to make withdraws for some time.

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.

I am tempted to buy this book just for the title

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.

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.
