Objective: 20k profits by the end of 2006.

Summary: After a break and cash-out of some money due to sickness, I am getting back on track for BR growth. Although I find 20k profits by the end of next year to be a lofty goal considering my starting amount, my previous success gives me encouragement. I will be playing a minimum of 4 tourneys a day on weekdays and 10 tourneys a day on weekends. This number per day will fluctuate, but not to go below 40 tourneys a week except in cases of vacation or illness. If more per day/week can be played, I will do so. This objective will be split into steps, most of them being the jumps up to the next level of SNG stakes. The expected completion dates for each step are tentative due to the large number of possible unforeseen circumstances that may arise to delay my progress, as well as variance I will no doubt hit. Also the goal is noted for 20k in profit by the end of 2006. This is in part due to the cash-outs I will no doubt be making for various items that for the most part will help in my progress.

Start: $500 @ 9/19/2005

Step 1: $660 for step up to the $20’s
Tentative completion: 10/3/2005

Step 2: $1500 for step up to the $30’s
Tentative completion: TBD

Step 3: $3300 for step up to the 50’s
Tentative completion: TBD

Step 4: $6540 for the step up to the 100’s
Tentative completion: TBD

Step 5: $10,000
Tentative completion: TBD

Step 6: $15,000
Tentative completion: TBD

This will be a tough goal for me to hit…but I am finding without structure, my potential is severely hindered.


With that, I ask that any of you who have insight on taking on this kind of endeavor or have experience as to the tendancies of the higher levels please let me know what I can expect so if any revisions need to be made, they can be. I know the typical BR guidelines are just guidelines, but I wonder if risking so much of my BR on some of my more SNG busy days is a bad idea and if I should shoot for higher than 30buyins before stepping up.

Edit #1: Doubled minimum BR for 33's/55's/109's as I underestimated. Also prioritizing multitable proficiency.
