June Targets

Well hello again..... 1 post every 18 months... well at this rate I have less than 50 posts left before I die!

Things have been very up and down since I last posted. I have probably played less than 20,000 hands of poker in the last 18 months , just playing occasionally when i felt like it. Things have been on a giant rollercoaster in the last 15 months, starting at Cheltenham races Mar 10 where I was getting pretty poor to go on a massive betfair heater hitting a high in mid Nov 10. Since then I have managed to lose nearly all of it..... we are talking 6 figures $$ wins and losses... now that's some swing...

Anyway as I have been hemorrhaging cash hand over fist in the last 6 months I have decided to knuckle down at poker and set some targets, as I don't think the world of real work look too good at present!

I am going to post all the way through June and hopefully by posting it will keep my on track to hit the targets I will detail below. Will be playing only hilo omaha. Will be looking to update every 2 or 3 days with mainly number based posts...... there probably wont be anything too interesting for the average reader...sorry.....

Targets June 2011

Hands - play 20,000 hands of hilo omaha at levels up to 2/4. (Reg players wont think this allot but the games dont run too often and 20,000 is a reasonable target)

Profit - The key will be to make a profit before rakeback/VIP bonuses etc. I am looking for $5,000 + but this will depend on whether the higher stake games run and if I run good on the bigger stakes games.

VIP/Rake - Looking to get my pokerstars back towards supoernova as those VIP points rack up then effectively giving you around 33% however I'm on gold at present and that's around 15%! So targets are 10,000 vip points on stars and also 6500 on merge poker as you get a free ipad if you rake $1000 this month.... http://rakeback.pocketfives.com/lock-poker-rakeback/
