Hey PG&C

My names Jordan. I'm 22yrs old and from Australia.
Starting my 3rd thread here. We've just entered the second half of the year and I've decided to start a new thread to re-motivate myself and start fresh. Will also be doing stuff other than just MTTs from now on as well, so the thread may interest a wider audience.

Poker History:
Spoiler:
Started playing in my last year of High School at 18. Played live freezeouts $10-$50 around my area and did really well, picked the game up very quickly and became obsessed as everyone does... then slowly got into SNG's, occasional Live cash and Rush cash, on Full Tilt (just before Black Friday).

Got back into online poker mid-way through 2012 when I moved in with a friend of mine who played tournaments. I ended up making lots of small deposits to play micro MTTs, complained, thought it was rigged etc. Stuck with it, then won the Big $16.50 on Christmas night 2012 for $4.5k and started playing MTTs online properly.

I got staked by "ThePokerBackers" a month later in February 2013 and have been with them since. My biggest score came when I chopped the Big $55 for $16.5k in November 2013.


Looking forward to the rest of 2014...
I've recently been reached out to by two really well-known poker players to join a new stable of theirs. They aren't taking on players in MU atm so my first goal is to clear, and then see how things go in regards to that.

I'm playing with an av buy in of around $35-$40 and am going to get in atleast 600 games a month. Up until now I've been strictly MTTs, but starting next month I'll be own-diming some some 5c/10c - 25c/50c Cash on Stars. I still need to figure out whether I want to do full ring or 6 max, I'd like to stick to just one. It'll be good to earn extra points and clear Platinum status each month, as well as sharpen up on some deepstack/postflop play.

Also starting from next month, I'm going to learn ONE new form of poker per month, and play 1k hands of that game at micro cash (hopefully showing a profit). I will probably start with Omaha and the different variations of that, Hi/Lo etc. Then move onto Stud, Razz, & Draw games. These are early steps in becoming a more rounded player, and with the eventual goal of being competent enough to play all games, therefore hugely increasing the games I can play during series. Really looking forward to finding out what other games are like.

Fans of music and movies will also probably enjoy this thread as I'll be posting about both on the regular. Will be setting a goal of 15 movies per month (75 before 2015) and recommendations are welcome!


GOALS:

Poker
  • Graph of 2014 showing 50k profit
  • Platinum Status (7.5k vpps/month)
  • Update after every session
  • Learn ONE new game (1k hands) per month
  • 10hrs study per week (keep track on study sheet)
  • Become a crusher at using programs like Flopzilla and ICMIZER
Etc.
  • Watch 15 films a month
  • Read 1 non-poker book per month
  • Awesome threadsavers
