Okay. So maybe replaying 10NL isn't a bad idea. More time to refine myself is probably good. So I am taking out $400 for my game system. I am going to be stricter about my time and sessions, I think 2, 2 hours sessions max at M-F. One afternoon session and one late session. Maybe a bonus Sat session (1 max) and absolutely none on Sun. I can flesh out from there once I have a rhythm going, but for now, its a good place to focus on some discipline.

Lets set of goals for July.

1) Primary goal is focus. I've found that more then 6 tables leads to trouble for me. So no more then six tables.

2) A lot of people seem to set a goal in number of hands. So I think looking over what I have done in the past, and scaling down a bit, I'll set an arbitrary number of 1k hands per day, so excluding any Sat session, we'll go 20k.

3) Giving up hands. I have this problem, I get extremely frustrated when I know I am beat after playing a hand well, and just getting outdrawn or rivered. Like the hand above, I threw out good bets up until the river, and I knew I was beat when the ace hit. However, in frustration I tossed the rest of my money in in hopes he was a tool with QQ or a 9. I've done this on a number of occasions, just because I sit and I am patient, patient, patient, then when my chance to strike rears its head. I put my money in good, I put it in again, and you know that last shot is moot because you lost, it has a strong eroding quality. So ramp up even more patience this month.

4) New 25NL bankroll goal, $875. 35 buy-ins should give me a lot more practice time. Once I do hit said goal, I'll move $600 to Fulltilt, and work 25NL there.

NEW Bankroll: $267.50
