Just as the title suggests, I couldn't have started the month off on a better note. I played a little 25NL during the day as I didn't want to play any 50NL until I had my coaching with Brendan. I hopped in a few mtt's and actually almost binked a $10 HA tourney. I came in 2nd for $225. I had a few other tourney's running so I had about $200 in profit. I'll take it.
I had my coaching with Brendan and he saw a few things in HEM where I could be improving. We then loaded up some tables and he was sweating me for the rest of the session. Overall I was happy the way I played and was explaining my thought processes pretty well. There were a few spots where I didn't take an optimal line and Brendan didn't just tell me what to do in that spot, he told my why I should do it a different way and what would result of it. He said I was looking pretty solid. I'm gonna try and get a lot of hands in and do a HH review on Thursday. As for results, I made $154.42 over 1018 hands for a 31.8 bb/100. Definitely not sustainable, but getting 23% of my $ goal for this month in the first day is uplifting.
Doing OK on the Insurace simulations. I got passed the Life one, now I have to tackle Accident and Health. I want to pass this stupid test the first time so I dont have to pay for it.
College Football starts tomorrow night so I'm pretty amped for that. This weekend I'm going up to my gf's cabin in the poconos which should be tons of fun. I'm going to get on the tables in a few and see if I can make some more money. Have a good day all.

September Goals
Ok, so I'm gonna start posting frequently again. I'm a little bit bitter as I write this since FTP processor is having troubles and my withdrawal just got denied. They said it was going to be put back in my account, and I've yet to receive it. alk;sdjf;lkasjd;fklajsd;lfkajsldfjalsdjf. Anyway onto the goals.
1) Pass my Insurance test
2) Lose 10lbs
3) Play 50k hands
4) Win $1500
5) Maintain a 3 or 4 bi stop loss(set amount tbd)
Right now, #1 is the most important thing to get accomplished. Once I do that poker will become much more easy. I want to get back on track with my life and start making some doe.
I've been getting a little flabby being out of work and sitting on my ass all day. I want to get a regular cardio exercise in and then eventually join a gym and start to get cut again.
My 3rd goal should be reasonable enough. I logged 40k hands this past month only putting in about 2.5 weeks of playing. I really need to spend more time on the tables.
I really want to get back in the swing of things and start winning again. I had a losing month in August and don't want to see it again. It tore me up inside how bad I played. I'm starting the month off getting coaching again. Brendan K will be coaching me and hopefully h'll get me on the right track.
There were a few times last month where I saw myself spew off so much money for no apparent reason what so ever. This has never been a problem for me(br mamagement) but for some reason I kept playing when I was down extreme amounts of money. I don't know wether I want to use a 3 or 4 bi stop loss. Maybe I'll use a combination of the two.
That's all for now, I'll update tomorrow probably after coaching.
