Operation "Dinner Out"

Goal:

Have enough bankroll to play in live casino 200 NL which is around 4k-6k.
Win seat for APT Seoul

Done by the end of 2008.

Putting in about another 200$ for 20NL on May 30th 2008.

Had a 50$ bonus before, lost it in about 2 weeks. Over the past few weeks, I studied books and forum, got myself fit for the game. I am ready to put in 4-8 hours everyday for poker. One of my main problems is discipline, I lost most of my hard-earned money over the weekend, where I kept playing during a huge lost session. Patience must also be developed to achieve.

I don't believe in HUDs and multi-tabling, online poker is not my final destination. I want to be a live player, but online poker would sharpen up my skills. I have lost 80% of my bankroll before through multitabling 20NL, I must stop that.

Especially if you have discipline issues and a history of blowing your rolls.

qft, sort your shit out and win. Otherwise be a donor. Choose.

I am willing to put in another $200 on my next paycheck. But thats 2 weeks away. Does that count as bankroll?

Anything that is in your bankroll is considered bankroll. Doesn't matter where you are getting the money from. If I were to put $500 into my bankroll from my credit card, my bankroll would increase by $500.

Good luck.

Hovering between 170-230. After I play good and long sessions, I usally lose, keep paying off to shit hands. Losing Patience. I seem to always be on winning tilt after a series of winning sessions.

After tilting my first deposit in in less than 24 hours, I stopped for a week.
I put in another 200 last weekend. I put a code together to help my tilt.

Code:
Stop-loss at 2 buy-ins in 24 hr period.
Stop-win at 3.5 sessions a day,.5=1 half-stack buyin.
Playing 1hr or longer sessions.

This code works great for me, I play with less crazy all-ins. Just grinding it out. I am able to focus on reading my opponents post-flop, which allows me to play a looser game. 5 days after my deposit, I am at $310 in my account. Which is recovered to 75% of my bankroll now. I ran pretty good no doubt, there was a few times I ran so good, I went on winning tilt, which broke my session to even because of crazy all-ins. I actually don't like those poker rush no more, just like to slowly grind it out. Killing 20NL now. Lets hope this continues.

After the lost for the another 200 deposit, I put in another 500 to play 25NL. Tilted it in 3 days also. Have about 40 left, FT is way too agressive for my game. I switched back to CD Poker. 500 to play 20NL, running well, up about 420 in less than a week. Mainly cash games.

Working a partime job gives me time to think about poker , Its harder to get burnt out also. Sometimes I feel I am not on my A game, but I tilt less and leave when I am tired. I am more into playing ABC poker and try not to go so sophisticated now and its working.

My goals have changed, I wanna generate an 8000$ online poker bankroll to travel the world, not so much in to MTT anymore. Never won much there.

I should have listened to all you earlier, bankroll management is key, I am bankroll nit now.
