Quick update and new goal

Long story short: I switched to 6 max NL and built a bankroll up to ~300. When Black Friday hit I cashed out the money and spent it on stupid stuff. I deposited 50 dollars on Merge and have struggled mightily. Currently my bankroll sits at 62.60 after losing 2.80 playing 4NL today.

On a positive note, this is the first day of my 30 day challenge. I have really struggled to put in consistent volume. This combined with my bad/tilty play has led to the horribly slow bankroll growth. Honestly, if it weren't for rakeback (35/% FTW) I would probably be busto right now. I have committed to playing one session of approximately 2 hours every day for 30 days. I believe that when I play my A game I am a +EV player. Therefore, after 30 days my bankroll should show substantial growth.

The overall key to this challenge will be discipline. First the discipline to put in the volume even on the days when I don't feel like it or something unexpected comes up. Second, the discipline to play the game that I have developed that has won for me in the past. No more unleashing the inner lag. No more calling down bad passive players with mediocre hands. No more focusing on short term results.

I will use this blog to track my progress. Tommorrow I will cover what metrics that I will be using to measure my performance.
