November also turned out to be a funny old month for Poker (again), as been up and down a bit from Bognor and also having busy days at work which leave me not wanting to face a Poker session after dinner.    I did manage to get a few cash sessions in, albeit not quite as many as targetted.   The results were OK overall, but need to focus even more, as there's still one or two hands where I dump all my stack needlessly.

My STT efforts were pretty good hit rate (albeit on tiny sample size) but I do seem to do better than average for this format.

The MTTs were all about MicroMillions.   I did manage to satalite for free into Event 39 but paid "full price" for the other 4 events.   Sadly I didnt last very long in any of the games... around 20 mins for 3 and 40 mins for the other 2, but was low cost and quite fun, so don't mind really.

December should be more of a normal month.... although we are planning a couple of trips to Bognor before Xmas and then there is Xmas itself..... so perhaps it won't be such a "normal" month after all !!

December 2014 Targets
Back to normal routine... kindof !
- Play 400 cash hands on NLHE $0.10 Full Ring (2 table) with target of breaking even
- Play 200 cash hands on PLO  $0.10 6-max (1 table) with target of breaking even
- Play 2 sessions of 8 Game cash with target of breaking even
- Play 3 MTT with target of breaking even

Strategic Objectives for 2014
*  Break even on all cash games
*  Play Mobile ZOOM as little as possible
*  Try to play MTT more regularly
*  Commit less to the online festivals

Reflect
From a Poker perspective, September was a bit of a non-month.  Being tied up with the stresses and time commitments of moving into the new flat meant I didn't get much spare time.  The evenings I did have spare time, was just wanting a nice relaxing, stress free evening so often just vegitated in front of the TV !

The little I did play was enjoyable though and played OK.  The Turbo spinners were a bit of fun to begin with, but actually soon got bored, so probably won't bother again!

November should be more or less back to normal, but with the distraction of still doing stuff at the new flat, but also taking part in as many Micro Millions events as I can!

November 2014 Targets
Will be focusing on MicroMillions most likely
- Play 400 cash hands on NLHE $0.10 Full Ring (2 table) with target of breaking even
- Play 200 cash hands on PLO  $0.10 6-max (1 table) with target of breaking even
- Play 2 sessions of 8 Game cash with target of breaking even
- Play 3 MTT with target of breaking even

Strategic Objectives for 2014
*  Break even on all cash games
*  Play Mobile ZOOM as little as possible
*  Try to play MTT more regularly
*  Commit less to the online festivals
