I have been around here for a long time, I have made serious operation threads and never followed through. This is a serious operation thread I hope to follow through on.

Poker presents an amazing opportunity to myself that I am wasting. I have free time I am wasting at this point in my life, wasting a lot of it. In the future I will never have that kinda time that I have now. I also have a big ego, I am very smart and very competitive I HATE to lose and love to win. It is time I put all the thing I have going for me to work.

It is time to make a very serious run at poker. How much money have I lost not playing very seriously and being stuck at 10nl for how many god awful months it is embarrassing. I could have been moving up and making serious money at higher limits and IMPROVING my quality of life through poker earnings.

Right now my poker account sits at $300 after withdrawing some money from it to play live and some other things.

Short Term Goals:
Play 10nl Full Ring (which I know I can beat at a decent bb/100) put in the hours.
I do enjoy MTTs so fire up a $2 or $3 MTT while I am playing my cash games, but not waste 2-3 hours playing a MTT solely while browsing the web that is not poker that is wasting time.
Move up to 25nl slowly once I am rolled for it a few tables at a time.
Discuss poker with guys in IRC and on Forums, gain insight that will help me rather than just mess around in commune.

Long Term Goals:
Keep moving up in limits at my own pace following good bankroll management.
Never bust my bank roll.
Make money so that I can live a more comfortable less stressful life.


Please do bust my balls in IRC through PM or AIM if I am not updating this daily or living up to my potential. I am serious about this. I may go a few days due to school etc but I do not want to give up.
