$1000 weekend
Another small step in Poker. I played for about 10 hours during the weekend to win more than $1000.
I played 3 sessions (Fri, Sat & Sun) of about 3 hours each. 1-2 No limit Texas Hold 'em with at least 7 players and an average stack of $200. After the first session when I cashed out for $500 I thought that I was just being lucky and it would even out soon. So I went back the next day and was able to repeat the same. On the 3rd day I got a little unlucky and I lost my initial buy-in in the first hand (Pockets Aces) when somebody hit his set on the flop. But the rest of the night was better and I cashed out for $500 third time.
Most people play loose on these small stake tables. 4-6 players see the flop every hand. I play very tight but get called anyway. So even though I play only a couple of hands in an hour, I can pretty much double up every time I hit.
Now since people have started noticing me, I have to mix up my game a bit to confuse them. Its fun when you keep winning :)

What does that leave, 9000 hours (or is it $9000 ;) to mastery?
Way to go Abeycha!
9000 hours for sure..
I don't think I have put in so much effort into anything in the recent past.
About 12 books, 6 DVDs and about 6 hours most of the days!
Maybe I should have done it to Math and programming too :)
