I have set myself a challenge of having a 16 hour session this Friday 28th January. I feel like I'm not even going to get close to the required time but I want to get the vpps as a way of proving to myself that I'm serious about getting supernova this year. I have put $15 of action on this, nothing serious but I haven't gotten odds which is a bit fishy on my part but oh well. Should be fun, will have a AIM/Skype group chat open if anyone wants to join me or chat during the session.
Stars announced that they will be changing the buy in structure for NLHE and it's just awesome. 50-20 buy in tables will be gone after Feb 10th and 40-100 will be standard with CAP and deep tables spread. CAP tables hold no attraction to me and hopefully for fish so expect juicier tables, especially at 25nl which won't have CAP. I'm so happy!
I got a new 22" monitor which is pretty awesome, I can't connect it to my laptop at the moment but I should do by next week. It's pretty good quality and hopefully will allow me to grind better and with less stress. I love it already!
As far as poker goes, I'm going up and down up and down I had a few 6 bi +/- swings the last few days but I feel I'm playing good poker and trying not to play while tilting which is my biggest leak in my opinion. Lets hope for a bit of run good during the loooong grind tomorrow!

December wrap up and January progress.
December was a month where I really tilted badly. I managed to perma tilt, then I tried plo for a while because of the lovely vee pee pees that I love. Anyone who has ever played PLO knows how ****ing insane the variance is, however I think I'm an ok player, but I haven't got a sample big enough. Eventually I said FU to platinum star, and just took it easy, cut the tables, cut the tilt and managed to put in some decent winning sessions (at long long last!) at full ring nlhe (I'm a nit at heart).
2010 in poker was a year of good times and bad times (ok I'll cut it out). I think the final numbers for 2010 go something like 240k hands played +$1100 and 40k vpps. So not the most successful year in any category. However I did have 5 months off during the year, which had I been playing, I could have made a run for supernova.
In life it was a good year, I went to New Zealand in March and stayed for 6 months, that was possibly the time of my life so far, then I came back and started uni and had a difficult but fun time. I'll post my TR of NZ hopefully today.
Lets hope for a new start in January!

[] less tilt
[] move up
[] make a run at six max or heads up
[] real sick house in Thailand with tonnes of poker friends I met through DC???
