    Ok, day 2

    Daily Target - 2000 + What I missed yesterday (731)

    Cash, SNG's or both?  Both

    How many days left to play - 6 minus dog walk

    Points achieved after day ONE - 1269

    Behind or ahead target after Day One - Behind, but that was a Monday

    New Target      - Still 14k for the week


    Didn't grind to the max yesterday but that's pretty normal for a Monday.  After a Sunday schedule and Sunday League football both mind and body are in recovery mode for me on a Monday.  I generally increase the grind throughout the week so I'm still pretty confident I will hit the mark.

    Loving this thread, lads.

    Not just the whizz-bang hot shots like TommyD, PatW & donttellMOTHER, but the regular guys like Spinky, trying to get 100 or so per day. It's all relative.

    I should have included "Profitable or not" to the options I think, (though NOT how much), because we need to try & be profitable whilst doing it of course.

    My Day Two session starts shortly. Hard to believe this, especially at my age, but I'm loving the challenge, I'm excited as a kid with a new toy. I really need to start acting my age soon.
     
    See you on the Tables shortly, I hope, & good luck this evening to everyone.

    Best of luck Tikay, it's great to experience somewhat of a rejuvenation in ones' game. Promotions like this definately aid such an experience.

    Oh and in regards to results. Quality > Quantity. RB grinding (for me anyway) takes the fun out of the game.

    Ok, day 2

    Daily Target - 2000 + some change from Monday (101)

    Cash, SNG's or both?  Both

    How many days left to play - 5 minus the nap I am soon to have

    Points achieved after day Two - 3899

    Behind or ahead target after Day Two - Slightly Behind, but much ground made up

    New Target      - Still 14k for the week

    In Profits?  Yup, nice up on cash, slight up on SNGs.  The only thing hindering me so far this month is MTTs, got of to a stinker in them this month.  Quite usual, although I may be guilty of some positive tilt as I have had a, as the young say, totes amazeballs run the last few months.  Will try to get it back in line on one of my favourite nights of the week, Rebuy night.  :)

    Also chipped in for the 2.20 at 2.20 for the fun.  Made the FT but went out after deciding to 3 bet jam my Open ended straight flush draw threeway.  Was only up against middle set and the nut flush draw.  Somehow didn't make it.  Software needs checking out imo    ;)

    This is great stuff, & I hope the thread helps give us all that extra bit of motivation.

    I'll try & list everyone shortly, & how they are getting along, relative to Target.
     
    I'll leave poor Teddybloat off the list, as real life (work!) got in the way.
     
    The list will be in no particular order, it is more about us achieving Targets than "who gets the most". It's all relative.

    These are the "Targets", "Achieved", & "Ahead/Behind" after TWO Days.
     
    Only 7 players have reported their Day Two results so far, I'll add the others via an Edit as & when they Post their Day Two Points totals.

    They are in no particular order. 

    The star turn so far is challak, who is going like a train.  



    TommyD, Target 14,000, should be 4,000 after 2 days, is on 3,899, so 101 points BEHIND

    wrongjohn1, Target 7,000, should be 2,000 after 2 days, is on 2,610, so 610 points AHEAD

    belsibub, Target 350, should be 100 after 2 days, is on 106, so 6 points AHEAD

    TimmyRaRa, Target 7,000, should be 2,000 after 2 days, is on 1,700, so 300 BEHIND

    spinky6108, Target 1,000, should be 286 after 2 days, is on 228, so is 52 BEHIND

    challak, Target 1,400, should be 400 after 2 days, is on 931, so is 531 AHEAD

    tikay, Target 1,680, should be 560 after 2 days, is on 606, so is 46 AHEAD

    PatWalshh, Target 7,000, should be 2,000 after 2 days, is on 3,000, so 1,000 AHEAD

    Target is 1k points a day. Ended up on a touch over 3k points after playing Monday/Tuesday. Feeling the burn already.

    Think my initial target of 200 points a day was a bit small. Ive set myself a new target of 2500 points for the week which should be about right.

    Over target again today but really starting to think I set the bar too low for myself cos I'm breaking it with very little effort... might adjust my target. Got 261 points today

    Daily Target 150
    Target for week 1050
    Cash/SnG/Both SnG
    Days Left 4
    Points Achieved 633
    Behind/Ahead 183 Ahead
    Right, I'll give myself a target that stretches me a bit more. I'll aim to get 2000 by the end of the week so with 4 days remaining, I'll need to get about 340 per day.
