    Default March Goals

    Everyone post your goals for March.

    I'm going to try to rape 100nl for 100k hands and see if I can pull +5 ptbb/100. This would be 16-tabling at all non-fast tables.

    Thoughts?

    Gave up on 200NL spoon?

    My goal is to finally approach 50NL properly, stick with the tight game that's worked for me at 25NL, stop donking around with LAGGY styles and pull 4+ PTBB/100 to start building a roll for 100NL.

    ...and complete my FTP bonus in the meantime. It's nice to get $20 bonus thrown in my account every session

    my goal is still focus on playing with donks/fish and target easy money happy muppets/ donators. trying to avoid playing big pots with nitty regulars already boosted my winning rate (6.6 PTBB/100 out of 16k hands since i started 100NL last month). Its like know how to foldem against nitty players and how to holdem against terrible guys. i hope everyone here has prosperous March.

    My goals are

    -move up to 200NL for good
    -play 100K hands
    -hopefully run better than 2 ptbb/100... 16-18 tabling
    -watch more poker vids

    What happened at 200NL spoon, you were killing it????

    i doubt 5ptBB/100 is maintainable playing that many tables TAGG. I think >4ptBB/100 long term u need to go more LAGG and play less tables to exploit really thin edges. Nonetheless, I wish u all the best in succeding to prove me wrong.
    What about a prop bet on your goal?


    My goals:
    Since I´m very busy with business training, university and my part time job I don´t think I´ll get in many hands. My goals are 15k hands@200NL maintaining >3ptBB/100 and to only play when I´m able to play my A-game.

    Move up to NL100 by March 15. I have 3600ish in my FTP so should hit 40 buyins for NL 100 by then.

    Play 20K hands in March. This is a lot for me. I only play 6 tables and work takes up a lot of time.

    10k, 100k hands, and never play 1/2NL again.

    Taxes lol. Yeah I was killing it but I'm a massive BR nit. I should probably be playing it anyway.

    Nah you (the general you, not you specifically) just have to stop sucking at poker quite as bad. I've ran >4.5 ptbb/100 at 100nl with the net AI run taken into account, I just suck at running closer to even than -1 ptbb/100, and this is playing 16+ tables usually. With less tables I could probably break 7 over 100k but omfg the hourly is sooo much better my way.

    Having just moved from STTs to cash, my goal for March is simply to make any profit at all, which will mean making up for my expensive 'learning' mistakes as I get going.
    Just dipping my toes back in.

    50k hands. $6k profit @ 200NL. Holla
  15. #15
    I'm not coming back to full ring for keeps, probably won't even post strat (ha ha you lose), but taxes and buying tons of shit are decimating my roll so I need to drop and grind. Only way is via fullring since sixmax is so incredibly tiring.

    So maybe like super grind 100k hands this month then go back to sixmax never to return?

    And spoon, 5ptbb? What are you now?
  16. #16
    5k hands of 2/5cents and try to move to 5/10cents next month or during it.

    done 1k and need $41 to hit $250.

    20k hands
    Stop bleeding money from the blinds as much
    Narrow the gap between PFR and VP$P (around 5% difference currently)
    Achieve 4k BR
    Move up to 100NL.
    (maybe get platinum star... probably have to wait until April).
    So you click their picture and then you get their money?

    Sportsbook $5.50 & $11 S&G's
    To finally hit the $330 mark ( at $326 now ) and move up to the $11 S&G's. And to play more cash games. I am playing a couple of tables at the micro limits and like it. So much less pressure with no blinds going up. Fits better with my nit like approach. I too am a BR nit. Would like to hit $450 by the end of march and be playing the $11's with a good cushion. I figure I could make the money goal bigger but I figure the learning curve on the move from $5.50's to $11's will kick my ass a bit.

    Oh yeah, and kick spoons ass at chess.

    My past 75-100k of 100nl have been between 4-4.5 ptbb/100 but I've ran bad on AI's enough to get me close enough to 5 that I think I can do it if I don't tilt off 3 buy-ins each day like I did this morning.

    Play 40k+ hands.
    Play more 400NL.
    Play less robotic, think more about a hand, try and put other more accurate on ranges.
    Take more time in revieuwing sessions.
    Get my w$wsf% up to atleast 40.
    Try and run 22/18.

    bang the shit out of XTR's and Jack's avatars.

    oh, and poker goals?

    get back the 9 BIs i've already had raped and pillaged from me at 25NL. seriously, post a positive month through solid play (in case you thought i was going to tilt by "gotta get that back" mentality). just want to post a positive month.
    LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

    Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!
