I suck at it. I need hardcore motivation to put in TONS of hands for the rest of the year. I want to play but I personally value time with friends i don't see often over poker.

I grind lower steaks building a roll.

I feel like prop betting would help me play tons of hands per month, but i'm not sure how much pressure it would apply to my actual decisions.

a.) Props imo?
b.) Forget the friends?
c.) Play a zillion tables?
d.) Schedule a time to play for at least 4 hours a day.

Thanks for your time and consideration, gl to those going to day 2,

IJ

def not b or c

A combination of a/d is probably going to be best. What do you do? Student or a job or what?

Student 9 months of the year essentially, part time job right now, b and c are sorta sarcastic, but lol i need a schedule or something. Would you like to prop?

I just feel it shouldn't be really hard to find 4 hrs/day to grind

for me personally, the only problem that arises is that 4hrs of grind time usually means 5 hrs b/c of breaks/table selecting/post session analysis

I might be interested, but I find forcing myself to play usually just ends up in disaster zone. I honestly think maybe 10% of the days I sit down and say to myself "today I grind like no other" end up successful.

when you say "TONS" of hands how many are you talking? how many tables do you usually play?

4 tabling 50k hands is a sick amount of hours (~133/month) and I don't think that's gonna help improve your game too much grinding like crazy

what are you trying to accomplish with poker? moving on up as far as possible or just paying bills or maybe going pro someday?

no bills, just building a roll and going from there. I'm at nl50 trying to get to 100 atm, with 2.6k to my roll.
