but if jennyIYY dont mind i dont......as i will be using it, it keeps me on the straight and narrow if you know what i mean..
Read last months thread and its a great read so I'm in. I had previously worked up to NL10 but withdrew some cash so having to start back at NL4
Starting Bankroll = £79.07
Monthly taget = 5figs like Lol_Raise but will settle with 5-10BI's
NL4 - 4-6 tables.
C4P target = 500 (will try for 1000 but this is a lot at NL4 so will see how I get on)
Will have to start tomorrow night as NL4 will be crazt tonight so gonna stay out the way.
Good luck everyone.
Target - put 20% on the bankroll, 500 points, & play at least 2 Monday night DTD's.

Current BR - £285.20
Points - 41
No specific money target, just make as much progress as possible in the DYMs.
C4P Target - 2000pts.
last month it helped me focus i think and as a result i had a decent month and broke 1000 points for the first time at nl4! anothe month like that and i should be moving on up to nl8!
doubt i'll be able to put the time in this month as it is a busy work month, but we'll see
hope to start tonight if i get back in time for the 8pm start of the "biggest stack on a nl4 table" challenge.
good luck to all
Quite enjoyed the winding down feel of typing out my badbeats etc at the end of the day
It sort of exercises any demons
Good luck all for another month of grind
Going to be joining in this month. Returned to SKY middle of Sept and enjoyed reading last months thread. As a few have said I find this type of thing a great way to maintain concentration and focus. Going to be playing mainly cash at 50nl and will also be trying my luck at a few MTT's.
Main targets for the month are to show a profit of £500 on the cash tables, and a profit of any kind on the MTT's. Not very good at MTT's but do enjoy them and believe it is only a matter of time until I crack one. Have a great October everyone and may the poker gods be with you.

Good luck all.
As I mentioned before, I play for fun, so I will only play games I enjoy, which are PLO/PLO8 MTTs with the odd NLHE deepstack thrown in (mostly forum DTD). I still want to improve as a player and remain a winning player, so my goal for the month is to turn a profit, and I would like to have a good showing in OHL2.
I got off to a pretty good start today. I played just about every PLO MTT as well as 3 PLO8 tourneys. I played 9 PLO bounty hunters, won 3, got some bounties in 3 and busted 3 empty-handed. I didn't cash 2 £1.10 PLO8s but finished runner-up in a £3.30 mtt for my best PLO8 score in a while. In the evening I played the 3 £20gtd PLO mtts and cashed 2 as runner-up. The last one was the craziest I have ever seen. People were potting and shoving left and right and I was somewhat lucky to get 2 or 3 double-ups and just stay out of the way until the others had knocked each other out. I started heads-up about 12-1 dog, got it back to even but the lost to a typical Omaha hand where I was ahead with a straight without redraws and was outtrawn to a bigger straight.
Overall 6 cashes out of 15 played for a profit of £23.18, and right now I'm in the top 20 of the MTT league. Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
was trying for a lot more given the challenge this evening but didn't get the situations.
once i even "folded" aces after a disconnection which was not nice!
Managed to double up but got bored (I do easily) so cashed out with around £6 profit. Steady start to the month £90 quid profit soo far. Cash for points 287.
10k is easily achievable this month(my personal target is 16-20k). One thing I would say about the hypers is that they start up mid morning for an hour, then go dead over lunchtime and start getting busy again mid-late afternoon. Havent figured why the traffic aint there but when I used to play turbocharged there was a game pretty much all day.
Also got egged into a sports bet by jj aka dohhhhhh. If Chelsea and Barca win today, I win a tidy sum for 6 correct selections. I have permed them down to 4 folds, so hopefully at least one of the two wins it will be a steady profit.
Also a nice side bet where jj said everton would win the merseyside derby, I took pool for £5. He then wanted double or quits, I offered it to him on Spuds vs Gooners but for some insane reason he took wolves to beat newcastle ! Easy money .....
