I've been losing since summer of this year, so I'm down to NL50 at the moment. It's okay though, since I got back from my Vegas trip I've been watching a lot of videos and I've been really inspired to play better. I came to the conclusion that I was playing formerly a break-even or very marginal losing/winning style mass tabling, and I want to fix it. I messed around with that idea that I may not be cut out for poker but blamed it on variance, but I'm ready to accept that I suck and that's the first step in order to become better. I've started by cutting down from 16 tabling to 9-12, which gives me plenty of time to think without that much down time. I feel like at 9 tables I'm able to be on my A game without sacrificing too many hands per hour, and at 12 I can play pretty close to my A game.

For 2011 I'm going to attempt to split my play between FTP and PS. I'm currently in my 12th or 13th month of Iron Man, and I'm clearing the $350 end of the year bonus and another $300 bonus that FTP accidentally gave me (I bought a $300 Iron Man bonus and I got shipped two of them).

On PS, I'm nothing. I want to try and get at least Supernova this year, just in case next year I climb up enough stakes to take a shot at Supernova Elite, this would be a good starter.

For NL50, I plan to try and play around 1500 hands a day at each site while 9-12 tabling. I believe that this will put me slightly ahead of pace for the Black Card and Supernova programs, which will be good. Best of luck everyone in 2011. I no longer want to be a rakeback pro. Fuck the past, here's a start to my future.

Also a shout out to Jolin@LP for his first attempt at SNE this year. Good luck bro, glad you've been able to take poker so far since our days donking it up at the penny tables.

The only hands a nit balances in his range are the nuts, the second nuts, and the third nuts.

Sounds like a very similar situation to what I just went through in recent months.

Good luck yo---

Not sure how you can play an A game while 12 tabling. Missing out on far too much for sure. Perhaps your perception of your A game is really just your B game, and you have not discovered your true A game potential? =]

Just a thought.

I am a degen. Do not believe in any of my advice.
