August was a total volume fail, as expected. The bad news is I only got in around 7,000 hands. The good news is that I did a lot of thinking about poker and I'm officially done playing 2NL.

I've only won about half the buyins set in the OP but I'm only setting myself back the longer I stay at 2NL. Plus I'm playing well enough and have the bankroll to move up. The goal for September is to play as many quality hands as possible at 4NL 6-max, which means no more than 4 tables at a time. I really want to move up to 10NL by October so putting in enough volume and the proper study time is super important to me.
