Canada Day Half Year report
At the beginning of the year I gave myself 6 goals to pursue for the poker year....so how am I doing....
"I was a Platinum VIP on Stars. BR just over $3k. Up about 10k+ in my poker career. Playing .50/1NLH 4-6 multitabling.
1. Continue to build BR without withdrawing from it to over $15K in 2007
This does not look likely to happen...and in fact I have already withdrawn $1200 from my bankroll. As a consequence of financial needs I have decided to withdraw $1500 every 2 months from my bankroll. Most of that money will be coming from fpps.
2.As my BR builds to move up, 2007 goal is to be at least playing 2/4NLH(need about 12-15k ) and possibly as high as 5/10NLH(need 30k)
As mentioned I have been and will continue to withdraw from my BR this year so the likelihood of even moving to 1/2 is not very good....
3.Platinum vip on stars every month and Supernova by September
This is the goal I have put the most effort into and I have been Platinum every month except one. I am also looking to go Supernova sometime in September. I have had ups and downs and need to improve my consistency. Getting enough sleep has been a major factor in my play and the amount I play.
4.Win seat to 2007 WSOP
My effort to win a seat this year was in a word disappointing. I did not play a ton of satellites like I should have and I failed to win any DS satellites. I simply did not play enough of them. My motivation to play this year was very low due to financial consolidation and wanting to get that sorted out first before I take off to play poker on the road. In that regard this 6 months has been a big success as I have completed several home projects and brought my finances into order.
5.Update my blog with greater regularity. At least once a week.
While not successful completely with this goal, I have been fairly consistent and about 2-4 updates a month. Not bad.
6.Start using PokerTracker for crying out loud!
I have not and I am either too lazy, too cheap or have too big of an ego to think I need it.
I'm probably forgetting something...."
So those are my thoughts on my goals to start the year. I will not add any more today but may revamp them in a future post.
Happy Canada Day!!
