Wow - it has been 1 week since my last post. I've been busy with little time for poker. I've been driving all over the state of Florida, putting together a trampoline, shopping, putting together toys, more driving, occasionally sleeping, driving, working, etc, etc

I haven't really had any time to sit and focus on playing 6 cash game tables at a time. I have played a little bit here and there, but usually 2-3 tables while doing other things.

I'm back at work and swamped. I have to get through a large project by Jan 7th, so I won't be playing much poker until then. (I'm sure I'll still get a decent amount of playing time in, just not as much as I would like.)

I'm going to take the next few days/week to try to nail down some serious poker goals for 2008. I'll probably break them down into a few categories:

1. Goals that I should achieve if I play enough, focus enough, study enough and don't stray from the path.
2. Goals that might be a little tougher to achieve, but aren't pipe dreams.
3. Goals that are lofty but may be within reach. (if not this year, hopefully next year or they may just be pipe dreams.)

I'm going to be working a lot more in 2008, because another guy and myself are going to be running/taking over the business and 2008 is the 1st "real" year of us running the business. I'll have to factor that into my poker playing.

Good luck over the next few days and in 2008!!!

I wish I had done better in the BBTwo TOC, but it was winner take all so I have no regrets.

I did manage to bubble the BBTwo TLB freeroll - weeeeee.

So, what now? Well I have been working my ass off and probably will over the Holidays - having to pick up a project from someone that had some medical problems.

I'm kind of relieved that the BBTwo is over. My playing time this week has consisted of playing tourneys and hardly any cash games. Now I can go back to my bread and butter - cash games.

I have finished almost 14k of the 25k hands that I was going to play at 1/2 6 max. I was going to wait until I finished all 25k hands to post a graph, but might as well post one now since I am a little past the mid-point. I'm not happy with the results so far. I am currently at 3.43 ptbb/100 - hopefully I can bring this over 5ptbb/100 before I reach the 25k hands. If not I will definitely be disappointed.

1st 6k hands can be summed up by the standard - coolers, bad beats, setup hands, blah, blah, blah

Hands 6k-8k = running good, sets over sets, finding horrible calling stations, blah, blah, blah

8k - 10k = break even - need to go look at hands

10k - 12k = weekend poker is fun when you are getting hands

12k - 13.8k = bets not getting respect; probably playing too aggro and not slowing down against tighties.

No way am I ever folding KK in a winner take all tourney. Quick was a lot better than finishing 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc.
