As the end of my self-imposed exile nears, I need to set my sight on something. I’m starting my poker career all over. I’ve got a new record book, new plan of attack, and a ridiculously tiny new bankroll. So it only makes sense to have a new set of goals. Without further ado, here is what I’ve come up with.
Goals for December 12th, 2006 to December 31st, 2006
- Turn my $50 bankroll into $500
- Work off the rust
Goals for January 1st, 2007 to December 31st, 2007
- Earn $20,000
- Win a seat in a major poker tournament
- Read the following poker books: Caro’s Book of Tells, the new Supersystem, the new Sklansky, the Full Tilt guide to tournaments, the Negreanu, and the new Harrington if its out
- Build and maintain a separate live game and online bankroll
- Master 7 Card Stud for casino play
- Win 6 online tournaments
- Become a better all around player
- Expand and Improve Grind or Gamble
I find these goals to be a mix of the reasonable (reading the books, establishing the bankroll, and earning $20,000) and the ambitious (mastering 7 Card Stud, winning a seat). It’s a good start but considering the amount of unknowns in my immediate future (job status, location, amount of time available, legality of online poker) at some point I will have to reevaluate. But still it’s a good start.
