After being busy all day I decided when I got home I'd play satellites till I won a seat to the wcoop 1k event. Well, I played 17 of them and cashed 1 for a net profit of -$406 which is a bit ridiculous. Luckily I saved like $20 by buyin $w320 for $300. Eh, at least it saved some time. Needless to say I didn't win a seat. Probably would've been smarter to just get staked but I've developed an ego since April which I need to work down. Having everyone tell me I'm great isn't good I wish they'd stop and call me on all my mistakes instead.
I'll include some extra stuff in this post just cause it's ongoing and upcoming. I staked a guy I tutored for a while for 3 months with 2k that's going to expire on 9/30 right now it looks like he's up a few hundred so that's good. I think he's making some mistakes in his end game which I'll have to talk to him about (I thought he was being too aggressive based on what he was saying but after watching him I think he's being too passive). I'm also staking another guy at UB for 1k - we'll see how that turns out he plays quite a bit, I'm staking him for 3 months too but it ends 12/17 I believe (I'd have to look but I'm lazy).
Another, ongoing thing is that I'm playing 100NL FR. Why? Cause I decided to I guess. I wanted to see if I was +ev and I guess I am. My goal was 5PTBB/100 (i.e. 1 buyin [$100] per 100 hands) I think I'm running significantly less than that right now cause I had 2 sessions of bad play/tilt. I'm 6-8 tabling at a time and I'm ~17.5k hands into it. I was only going to play 20k hands but I think I'll instead play till I win 20 buyins and then move up to 200NL. I might not move up but that's something I'll have to decide.
I'm also playing live more often working up to next years WSOP. I've turned 500 into 8k in about 2.5 months so it's going well, I want to get out to a casino sometime soon though. Oh, and I'm moving to NYC hopefully in 1.5 months so it'll cut down on my poker time.
Lastly, I have been considering myself a tournament player for the last ~1.5 years. I've only played maybe 1.4k turneys in that time and probably averaged ~30-50/hour which is nice. Unfortunately (or fortunatley depending how you look at it), I reached my goals and my game went down and I started running bad simultaneously. I thought this might happen but now I gotta rework it set new goals.
Goals:
1) I want a 150 buyin BR for the $215 turneys (BR = 10/32.2k)
2) I want to withdraw ~20k for personal use (32.2k+20k = 52.2k)
3) I want to get more proficient at NL cash games
4) I want to play more live and get my live BR up to 20 buyins for 5/10 (8/20k)
5) I want all of this accomplished within a year (9/31/08).
6) Total $$ won goal: $72.2k
7) This goal is just a whimsy - FT the million again in the next year.
Obviously, this is a very optimistic goal, but I hope I can accomplish it. I'm already almost 25% of the way there.
Online withdrawal policies: Once I get above 15k online I will start withdrawing 20% of monthly profit until I supass the 32.2k mark. After I surpass the 32.2k mark I will start withdrawing 60% of profit.
Live withdrawal policies: Once I get above 10k live I will withdraw 20% till I surpass the 20k mark at which point I will withdraw 40%. Once I get above 40k I will withdraw 70%. Also, all bills that I collect smaller than $20's will just go as spending $$.
I'll try to update this everyday that I play poker.
