Do you only play live poker?
Also, I might have misled you in my post, when I say year 1, I don't mean this is my first year playing poker. I have been playing for over 20 years since pre-Black Friday and steadily for the last 10 years online. It's not unattainable.
It's just that I am using 2022 as a benchmark Year 1 for this chapter of my poker journey: no other job and starting with a $5k bankroll, like a clean slate. I am pretty certain I will be starting Year 2 with a bankroll of $20K+. From there, we'll see...who really knows?
But really, this is not what I am looking to discuss here, and we will only really see if I can reach those goals two years from now, so it's not that important. They're called goals for a reason right?
One of my problems right now is I don't play for enough hours, and it stems from the other problem of quitting sessions too early. I know I have to put in more time. I play closer to 20 hours per week right now when I should be playing closer to 40. I do know that for me to reach my goals, I have to get over this mental speed bump of thinking that $300 is enough to be up to quit and shut it down for the day too.
Any ideas?
