If you'd like to be a part of this thread, post your goal in either hours or hands and I'll add it to the main list here in the OP. Each day [that you play] the people who are a part of this thread should make a post detailing how many hands and/or hours (whichever applies) they played, at what game and stakes, and also how they are doing on their current goal for the month. The idea is to create awareness and support for each others' goals in poker as a group so that we are more likely to be successful individually.

20k hands at 25NLFR.
I have a prop with spenda who's doing 20k @ 100NLFR. He can't post updates cuz he's a fucking loser and can't build a $10k BR.
{EDIT: spenda wanted me to say he's not a loser, he's just not a weiner}

Hey I'm in, this is a great idea!
50 hours, 4 tabling. Should come out at 20k hands, but I don't want to be checking PT all the time, so ill do hours. Also minimum 5k hands at $200NL
Also, only look at PT once a week for a review session, and post more on FTR.
Maybe a forfeit if you don't complete it for those that aren't prop betting or something. Cant think of anything atm. Donate a buyin or something.

I've added everyone [I think] up through Taxi to the OP.
I highly suggest that everyone with a goal for April add something to their signature to that effect, such as a graphic from http://operations.talkingapes.com or just some text like I have.
Good luck everyone. I'm about to hit the tables right now.

If one of us doesn't do it, the other has to give $500. If we both do it or don't do it, nothing happens.
I'm willing to raise the stakes too if you want.

Played 4,710 hands today.
4,710/100,000
Edit: Changed my goal to the approximate equivalent of hands as the 120-hour goal I originally set so I can be like everyone else.

Wheeeeeeee I'm going to play so many hands this month. 60K seems conservative but I'll stick to it because I don't want to pressure myself to play after a bad run.
3k hands played maybe more later but I'll most likely just play some sunday mill sats.
