Early morning update ZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz............
I have been doing some 'math' (math's for you English speakers) and have roughly worked out that at my current BB/100 of 15/100 hands I can be taking shots at NL4 in around 4 weeks, or 30 hours, or 12,000 hands. That is if this BB/100 is sustainable which I can't see why not. The bright lights NL4, look at me eh.
I understand that with NL4 status comes a lot of pressure and maybe media attention but I can handle it. I've grown up a lot since the birth of my daughter and have no desire to succumb to the trappings of the high roller lifestyle!!!
So my goals for the coming month are:
Try to get in 12,000 hands by end of October (instead of 4 weeks)
Do you know what, scrap that. I'm not in a rush and need time to study too. So I will take my time and just play it as it comes. Ramble makes a good point:
When you are truly motivated by enjoyment instead of by expectations or results - you tend to approach it with a much better mind-set. This allowed me to have a much longer term view of my progress than expecting to climb the stakes really fast. I ended up climbing the stakes faster when I stopped caring about climbing stakes.
I agree totally with this and I am enjoying my journey. I need to prove to myself that I can cut it at the lowest of stakes and not pretend I am some kind of Baller!
That is a very good statement Jim when you isolate it! The makings of a future coach/inspirational speaker???
My revised goals for the month are:
Keep changing nappies
Try to sleep more
Play poker when chores are done and maybe I'll progress this month or next or the next!
Make time to study (hand reading/range work mostly)
I also have a live tourney coming up at the end of this month at my local. It will be great to get out there and socialise again.
Best of luck guys 
) as I'm really enjoying it. I'll probably get smacked round the face when I do move up. This games very good at that!!!
