| Easy game for M. I had no doubt in my mind you'd do it. After pwning me in that prop bet, I knew there wasn't much you couldn't do if you put your mind to it. GG SIR! | ||

December Review: What a month...I had to crank out a ton of volume to hit Supernova, and as a result I was pretty much constantly on subtle tilt/mashing buttons. I didn't really have time to think my way through decisions and every session ended in me reviewing hands that had no place existing given the way I played them. But when you make mistakes you learn, and I definitely learned a lot. I learned that emotional control is the single most important factor in this game. You cannot expect to make any money playing poker if you are constantly on subtle tilt. I ended up on subtle tilt all month due to playing too many tables, too long of sessions, playing tired, etc. But this is the last month I plan on doing this. Starting this new year I'll be focusing on playing fewer tables, taking more notes, getting actual reads instead of just thousands of HUD stats, and really focusing on playing poker as opposed to button smashing. I also learned that I can earn roughly the same hourly playing 6-8 tables as 12-16. Hmm...guess I haven't really gotten the feel for mass tabling yet, though I didn't approach it correctly - I just kinda jumped into it. I don't really plan on going beyond 6-8 tables often next year other than to catch up with VPPs/clear bonuses etc. Generally speaking, I want to have the majority of my sessions revolving around being focused on making good decisions rather than as many as possible. I guess I can't really blame myself for the button smashing, I had to get Supernova locked in otherwise that would be well, pretty awful. So even though how I played in December pissed me off and feels as if my game has taken a step backwards, I'm pretty pleased that achieved my main goal (Supernova) and hey, I played a fuck ton of hands so I made lots of money  . But there's easier ways to make 7k/month, i.e. 130k+ hands don't need to be played, so from now on I'll be focusing more on quality now that I have my rakeback.Garf:  $5,602.16 at the tables, $1,448.76 in rakeback totals for: +$7,050.92 I was a $2nl Bronze star nub earlier in the year. Now I'm a Supernova rolled for $200nl. Total profit on the year exceeds $20,000 and I have a 5 digit bankroll. To any micro guys who are wondering if it can be done, the answer is yes. Just work hard, keep your head up, and try your best to learn lots and improve. Big thanks for FTR and everyone who's given me advice, sweats, coaching, talked poker, been there to keep me motivated for grinding it out hardcore in Decemeber, and all that. This Operation is now officially complete with success, and a new one will be up and running soon. Again, thanks a ton guys, I couldn't have come this far without the help of everyone here. |

Spectacular work. I hope your family was impressed if not supportive of your accomplishments. 7k a month translates to 84k a year plus we don't know where this glass ceiling will shatter  Good luck moving forward. |

my parents are actually pretty cool with me playing poker - my mom seems a little less thrilled than my dad about it, but they have pretty much grown to accept it (at first it was difficult for them but it has gotten easier over time I believe). my grandparents however, have no idea...and I'm really unsure of what to tell them because I know they won't be able to understand at all. my grandfather is really old school and wouldn't appreciate me 'gambling' nor would he believe that winnings in poker are sustainable. so I guess that's the next biggest challenge in real life for me because sooner or later they are going to be curious about what I do with my time. if anyone has some sort of suggestions on how I can approach old people and tell them what I do I'd really appreciate any help on this, maybe even starting a thread about how to explain poker to family members would be a good idea. |

| That's a pretty tricky area. I have a day job making $75k and I still get disapproving comments from some family. Unfortunately, some people just get it in their head that everything about poker is wrong or they can't distinguish gambling from poker or whatever. It's understandable, though, because most poker players DO lose money. And the losing ones say they are winners just as much as the real winners do. | ||

| When it comes down to it, you don't have to tell the truth. I know you would like to, but poker has only recently become semi-acceptable due to tv coverage. Back in the day, Doyle Brunson and others just lied about their profession. Take the easy road, imo. | ||
