Poker Goals for February and 2006

Last month was a good poker tournament month for me. I made $2K+ in tournaments and banked my first win on multi tables albeit with a small field (less than 200 people). Both of which are very satisfying. On the other hand I believe I need a plan for the rest of the month and the year. So with that thought here are my current plans:

1. For February, I hope to make at least 10 final tables (2 in the bag already but both were 10th place finishes).
2. I want to have a $10K year.
3. I want to play in at least one WSOP event this year (even though I already did play in the WSOP circuit event in Tunica I am talking about the main WSOP events this summer).

Can I do it? I don’t know, but I have a lot of confidence in my game and I feel I have chance to make those modest goals. I know it is nothing compared to the $100K+ goals the big online dogs have but hey you have to start somewhere. Plus I feel I play better when I have both long term and short term goals to fight for.

One more....

Another win! $20 buy in, 161 players, first place finish. Man it feels GOOD! Don’t get me wrong I know there are TON’s of better players out there who cash regularly in large buy in large field tournaments but they all had to start somewhere…..

Stats for January are 17 cashes in MTT and 8 final tables. Good start for the year now my goal is to make 10 FT for February and at least one big cash in a higher buy in event or large field.

Lets see if I am full of shit or not...
