Sup everybody!
I am blakkman08 and I play fullring cash games on stars under the nick t8ofdiamonds.
I started 2012 with $200 in my account playing $5NL 6max and finished 2012 playing $50NL as supernova. You can find my 2012 thread
here
Here is my graph for last year:
In autumn I played hyperturbo husngs but ran aidsilicious:
I am currently staked and am looking to move up through the limits a lot faster (80% of the volume in 2012 was nl25 at which I won at 6+bb/100) so my goals for 2013 are going to be a bit lofty but surely achievable:
[ ]
reach nl200 and be a solid winner there.
I am hoping to reach and establish myself at nl200 as soon as possible and reevaluate my yearly goals once I achieve this.
[ ]
move up aggressively.
If I am beating a level and both me and my backer are happy with results there is no reason why I shouldn't move up
[ ]
live healthier.
I have lived pretty horrendously this year, not doing much in terms of keeping a good rhythm or doing sports. This has to change! I have realized that a good life balance is key to poker success and thus I will treat healthy food sport and socializing as big parts of my career. I will post a detailed gym/run plan later ITT and attach freerolls to this so stay tuned!
[ ]
move to Malta again.
I spent 4 months living in Malta in 2012 and loved the place! I already have a friend who I ll likely be looking to find a place with for late march/April and can't wait to step foot in our new apartment!
[ ]
work hard!
I spent a large chunk of 2012 procrastinating my valuable time away. This has to stop! Nobody got to the top by being lazy! I am lucky to be able to do something that I actually enjoy but I cannot take that for granted. I have to make the most of it while I can.
[ ]
500k VPPs.
Just a little motivation for me to keep putting in solid volume throughout the year. Half a mil has a nice ring to it and since I won't be able to tackle SNE this year I ll settle for half
I will try and give this thread a bit more structure than the last one by setting and evaluating monthly and possibly weekly goals as well as posting a couple of the more interesting or funny hands I happen to play. I like having discussions ITT so feel free to suggest sth that i forget to mention.
Also, I enjoy cooking and will try to document most of the new dishes I end up trying out. Again, feel free to suggest something for me to try out, there aren't many things i wouldn't consider making
Thats it for now, my next few posts will be recaps from some holidays I spent on Malta
