    Default Time for a Triton!

    So I've just really come into the online world not to long ago, but do not play as much as I thought I would. To motivate myself to play more I am setting a few goals for the next month.

    1. Play at least 8 hours per day for at least the next month (I will take one day off a week to get away from the grind)

    2. Play no more than 6 tables at a time (I like to load up 9 tables sometimes, which I usually don't do profitably)

    3. Finish clearing my bonus account (currently I am 1/3 of the way there)


    I've found in the past that if I have something that I am going to do with the money I earn that I work harder, so I have put a deposit down on a new Gary Fisher Triton (retail $660). So I would really like to be able to clear enough to cash out $1000, as well as keeping a roll big enough for $50NL ($2000).

    Starting BR $210

    Ok, 4 hours down. I'm down $34 however. A few bad beats with two $5 SNG bubbles. I feel good about the hands I've played so far, with the exception of three. I didn't import them before closing out FTP, but I'll add in some hands after this session. Hopefully I'll at least break even this one.

    Al right so I failed to break even on the ay yesterday, however I did clear another $20 of my bonus. So far today I have won $65 playing $10 Razz, Holdem, Omaha H/L, Stud H/L and HORSE SNGs. I don't really like playing SNGs because it takes away from my rakeback, but I do well at levels over $2.

    As far as logging the hours I got that done, without going over 6 tables. Well on time I did but that was because a sng opene earlier than I thought it would. Today will be tough to get 8 hours in, so I might take half of a day off today and play another half on wednesday (I will usually be taking wed nights off).
