O-Poker

I am on a downswing at 5/10NL. I think most of it has to do with me playing poorly along with some big pot bad beats (which have fed the poor play). After withdrawing for the Las Vegas trip and not re-depositing back into my poker accounts when I got back and moving a big chunk of money into our home tear down/rebuild fund in June and July, my poker accounts are now below 20 buy-ins for 5/10NL.

I haven’t had any direction or focus since coming back from LV. This coupled with working a ton of hours and playing late into the night have been a big part of my poor play. I have decided to set a goal/game plan so that I have some clear direction and something I am striving for. So here is my goal for September:

August 28-October 1st

Limits: 2/4 NL
#/Tables Simultaneous: 2-3
# Hrs/Wk: 20-25 hrs
$ Goal = $8,000

I will not play any 5/10NL until I reach the goal of $8,000 profit at 2/4NL.
I won’t play MTTs and cash games at the same time.
I may take a break from this routine in the middle of September to play some WCOOP events.
I’ll post weekly updates on Mondays or Tuesdays.

I think this “back to basics” approach should help get my game back into the zone that I was in before I left for Las Vegas.
