Hihi!
I've done a couple of PG&C threads before that have never got past the first few months or so for one reason or another, but I feel like making a successful one for 2015 is something that's going to benefit me over the course of the year, so here we are.
My name is Simon and I play as sifiasco on Stars. I'm a 6m cash player and I'm currently battling it out at 50NL. I've played 50 for a pretty long time now but it's only in the last couple of months where I've had several realizations about the past and how wrong I've been doing things previously. In short, during the majority of 2014 and the years before that, I don't think I've worked anywhere near hard enough in order for me to be successful.
Around roughly October/November, I set about making a number of changes in my life and I'm now both more happy and positive about the future than I've ever been. I intend for 2015 to be a kind of 'breakout' year for myself and one in which I work harder than I've ever done before.
On Tuesday I'm moving to Malta to live in a poker house with a couple of guys and I'm super excited. With everything I want to accomplish, I think that putting myself into this environment is completely perfect.
I don't have any profit goals for the year, as I don't really think that's the best way to do things. And I'm not going to make a list of other goals to achieve in 2015 either, as everything is subject to change as and when I move up i.e. VPP goals. My only real goal, as I say, is to work extremely hard and to improve as a poker player. I want to move up as high as I possibly can this year, but I'm not going to rush it. I've got to get much, much better before I start saying things like 'I'm going to play 500z before the end of the year' or whatever else.
So this may not be your traditional PG&C in that regard, but I fully intend to be active itt and I will be posting all of the fun stuff, like hands, savers, graphs, any trip reports, stories etc.
December 2014 Graph
Got a good amount of volume done in December, as I needed to make a big push to hit Supernova, which I managed on New Years Eve after a rather hellish last few days of grinding.
And that's about it. I'm looking to get about 100k hands done in January, so you can call that the first actual 'goal' of the thread.
