What am I headed for?
I'm just going to write something that will hopefully direct me to my goals. I want poker to help me make a living and to allow me to treat my girlfriend(s) to nice things. I don't want to become a professional poker player. I would like to 8-table the 25+2s at 15% ROI (feasible) this summer, and I don't think I'll be going to the 60s any time soon, just 'cause they seem tough. I think I can 8-table 4-5 hours a day, in sets. I played 50 SNGs on Thursday, which was a lot for me. Played something like 20-30 on Friday, and I'm going to continue playing a bunch today. It's a rainy day and I'm reading some book, though (01-01-00 by R.J. Pineiro). I've also got one big chunk of work to do that might take me something like two hours.
I'd just like to mention something that I think a lot of us neglect at the lower buyins: remember t pick up small pots. Make tiny bets when you have a mediocre hand like top pair on a 7-high board.

I'm extremely fucking mad. Fucking tourney luckboxes keep catching aces on the bubble. One fucking retard thought for twenty seconds before calling my A2o allin with 86o for a third of his bigstack. Naturally, I bubbled. Same thing with a retard that goes AFK for the bubble and comes back to catch aces, ace-9, kings, and busts me out. On a third table, I bust because of some retard that called an allin of mine with 97o (my KQo), and I bubbled there too. I could've made profit today, for the first time this week, but nooo.

How badly are you running?
not running TOO badly, I dropped something like 10 buyins but I've turned it around and I'm up 10. the annoying part is that I'm +/- 200 around the 1050$ mark and I can't seem to progress. it'll happen, no wories.
