mrdannyg 274 Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 i actually have goals this month, and since i probably won't meet them, i figured i'd post them. as you probably didn't notice, i didn't have september goals, because i'm taking a correspondance course that takes up all my time.this month though i would like to:- finish my party bonus (1000 raked hands), probably just 10-tabling $25 PLO/8- finish my Stars bonus (840 points)- do the Crypto bonuses (or at least Inter, Poker Plex, Sun Poker and William Hill)- make a dent into my Absolute and Pokerroom bonuses- get off my ***, and finally cash out my Mansion money Link to post Share on other sites
Briguy 0 Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 I've switched to tournies, 'cause I enjoy them more, so here are my goals:At least 10 $4/180's per week with an ROI of ??? (so far my ROI on these is crazy high, with a 2nd, two 4ths, and a few boring 6-18ths after playing about 30 of them. I don't know what a realistic expectation should be.).At least 20 $5.5 STTs per week with my standard 20% ROI or better. Whee, $40 per week! Maybe I should go back to ring LHE. :)At least 5 huge crowd $5.50 or less MTTs per week. So far I only have 1 FT (6th) on MTTs with greater than 1000 people. I'd like to get another FT this month. Well, I'd like to FT all of them, but AA << 65s, in my experience.An October surprise* that effectively recinds the silly anti-poker legislation your idiot government is pushing through. It would not be good to lose the pool of players (be they fish or pros) that the richest country on the planet represents.*This is more of a wish than a personal goal.

pokerplayer24 0 Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Basically no serious goals with the current poker climate. Thought I was done for a while till I won a 22$ 180 man for 1080 and followed that up with some ownage. So I guess 3-4k aka enough to pay for school expenses for the year would be good.

kes1981 0 Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Specifically, yes.But more to everyone in general.I'm the only one who has stated that they believe Party will be back alot sooner than everyone expects. However, anyone that believes it will be the same is fooling themselves. The games will suck. I doubt I would go back to Party when they return, unless they do something about the Monster promotion. Absolute=new Party. Link to post Share on other sites

kes1981 0 Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 did the games over there get juicy or something?Not at all. I have been datamining there quite a bit and it's pretty bad. But they are allowing US players. UB is also a rock garden. Your earn will drop alot, but at least you can make a living playing online while in school. Link to post Share on other sites

AcesOnFire 0 Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I did the same thing, as much as I hate to admit it, but I ran hot.Just be careful.You can lose 5 buyins so fast in NL.Well Up at 800 now. But I'm aware I'm running hot so I'm getting ready for variance. Link to post Share on other sites
No_Neck 0 Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Blah I officially am running bad. 5k hands and I have lost 20 dollars. Link to post Share on other sites

Absolute=new Party.AP most certainly won't be the new party, Full Tilt right now has stated that they are sticking around and OnGame hasn't said anything about pulling out either. Just get rakeback when u do either of those sites though. I can hook u up Link to post Share on other sites
Actuary 3 Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Well Up at 800 now. But I'm aware I'm running hot so I'm getting ready for variance.uh, running hot is high variance too.you mean ready for a downswing?not that it would be anymore likely now, after an upswing.but you know that.sincerely,Abbaddabbaddoddohead Link to post Share on other sites

CobaltBlue 662 Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Play Money is worse than playing STACKED for helping you learn the game.I disagree with that. I played with play money for two months before depositing. It teaches you the basics of the game and how to play with maniacs/calling stations. And hey, if you can't win with play money, you almost certainly know that you can't win with real money. Link to post Share on other sites
