|
|
Hey guys.
This is a thread for everyone to post their 2012 goals and regularly update throughout the year, and the Stars guys to update their VPP's. Anyone who can should go for Supernova, because in future years when you're playing higher, it's a lot more valuable to have supernova status already acheived.
Check it out here: http://www.pokerstars.com/vip/supernova/
Here's my personal goals:
[] Move to 200s
This goal shouldn't be too difficult. If I keep studying regularly, once I get enough games under my belt and sessions with PHMERC, I should be right to move up, hopefully in late February or early March.
[] Move to 300s
This will be more difficult than 200s for sure. My volume will be limited in 2012 due to school, but PHMERC and I are confident I will reach this goal, but 500s will be almost impossible.
[] $30,000 profit
These profit goals are including RB and bonuses. I expect to make Supernova relatively easily, which will net me ~$5k. I wouldn't be unhappy making 30k, but I think I can make more.
[] $40,000 profit
[] $50,000 profit
This is the ceiling, and would take a lot of hard work. I am doubtful I will hit the 50k mark, in fact 40k would exceed my expectations, but I'd rather set the bar high.
[] 100k VPP's
Ez game if I'm at $100+
[] 200k VPP's
This will be harder. If I'm grinding 200-300 a lot, it will most likely happen, but most of my 2012 volume will be played at $60s and 100s, which will make this impossible most likely. I am definitely going for 200k though, near the end of the year I might make a blog post asking for people to 2-4 table me for VPP's, we'll see.
[] Start staking and/or coaching
Coaching is something I've wanted to get in to, and hopefully 2012 I can begin. I do lots of sweats and HH reviews with people around the same stakes, and I enjoy it so much, and I think I will definitely be qualified to coach <$100 guys in a few months time.
[] Buy a car from poker winnings
I've had my licence for a while now but haven't had the money to buy a car, so hopefully around mid 2012 I'll have saved up enough money to buy something.
GL everyone, have a good 2012! |

Post your goals champ, this isn't my thread, it's a thread for everyone really.
5ks? Lol, maybe in like 2014, selling action. Doubt I'd play 5ks on my own coin. |

Nice thread mate , im currently playing 6max nl10 and by the end of 2012 i hope to be an nl50 reg !
I think this is a realistic goal given i dont play a huge volume and still only a slight winner at nl10 at the moment.
Once i hit nl20 (hopefully around march/april time) and making a better profit i may invest in some coaching aswell.
Hope we all run well in 2012 and all crush the shit out of online poker ! _________________ Fortune favours the brave. |

GL mate, seeing you posting hands in forums etc makes me pretty sure you'll get to 50nl.
Also, if guys like Kierk/Red_Dog/Aggsy/Borg etc see this, I really wanna see you guys who play mid-high stakes goals. |
