February 1st, 2012, first full month as a pro

0

After much deliberation, and a year and a half as a successful part-time 400-2knl player i have left my good and stable job to follow my dream. Despite the worst poker conditions in a long time, I left 2 weeks ago, been playing some but mostly taking it easy. It's time to write out my goals

Goals

1)Average 10k a month in total profits(rb included play on merge). This should be easily attainable as long as the games stay as they are now

2)Take time to learn how to play new games and tournies, i would like to learn first how to play tournies because i plan on playing some WSOP events. Then will focus on PLO

3)Not being lazy. I want to do a minimum of 10 hours a week analyzing my play, learning how to utilize all the tools HEM offers, learn flopzilla and watch videos. Despite success i do not do this nearly enough, now that i have no job and commute i have no excuses.

Those are my main goals this year. Very vague, but i think i know what i need to do. I will update a blog im shooting for once every week or two and than a month end summary.


One thing i know i need to work on now as not emotionally attached. It's weird i use to never tilt or get emotional, but now playing full-time i seem to care about results a lot more. This was shocking to me. Something i will keep an eye on and actively work to improve
