Hopes make 10k$ in line with last 3 years - more work and a bigger family make this harder to achieve.
Cash live - only played a few times and just played tight and get blinded into action. Post more hands etc to getter feedback from other/better players. Record all sports betting and stop betting in running once in green. Lose 2 stone - healthier diet- drink less - work on prem ejac |

Targets for 2011: 1) to lose 12 kilos 2) run the 100m in under 10 seconds 3) win wsop or a side event at the very least 4) climb everest 5) play for Chelsea in the FA cup final! Nothing is impossible. ..................................................................... |

I think playing for Chelsea is your best bet. Mon the Gunners.

hmmm
already got my first bubble of the year. AQ vs A8 vs K8. The only way I could bubble was if an 8 came... Had already spewed half my stack in the highroller, when had AxAd vs 66 on a 235dd flop, turn 4d and they went all in obv. doing ok in a couple of others but already got a bad feeling about 2011 |

day 1 -£826
Almost forgot got it in earlier with QQ vs JJ on a low flop, J turn. Early night is in order, as am going to be playing tomorrow night for the ipad. |

By:
Just gone out of highroller. Card dead all night, get jj, all ends up going in against KK, get lucky, flush on river. Raise bb with 33 who approx 3rd stack of me, he goes all in, I call, he shows A3, makes straight on river. Get Ak twice in a row. Raise 1st time they all fold. Raise 2nd time, get re-raiser, go all in, he shows 55 which holds up.

2011 New Years Poker targets and resolutions…. 1: Keep the blog going. 2: Stick to MTTs or the occasional low stakes cash game. 3: Target to make minimum $30k profit from MTTs online in 2011 (stretch target of $50k) 4: Play more live… 2010 live trips were almost non-existent. 5: Pick up a $10k + win online. 6: Finish in top 100 Ongame MTT players for 2011 on OPR. 7: Improve my top 3 finish % (8 top 3 finishes from 28 final tables since July is not that great)… want this up to at least 35-40%. 8: Play more Sats into the bigger $500+ online games. 9: If I’m playing crap take a few days off. |

''9: If I’m playing crap take a few days off.''
You won't be playing much then [;)] |
|
By:
True...
9: If I’m playing unlucky take a few days off. Better? |
|
By:
I hope all of the TAGS don't take your new advice Wonky, otherwise most will be spending most of 2011 on the sidelines.

GL all posting here tonight. Ipads / MTTS etc.
Wishing all the best and Chelsea fixing their leaky defence. Oops 0-1 to Wolves and early in first level. |
|
By:
&*%^$! I had enough of MTTs, played a bit of omaha cash. Two buy ins, one as favourite, one as huge favourite. I am holding on in european daily. This is not a good start
|
|
By:
sigh, timing is everything. TT vs AT SB vs BB in the european daily.
I may hang on for the 10.15 turbo. Probably £2k down for 2011 already ffs. |

theres always prize mountain to cheer us up fellas. if i couldnt cope with an ipad i got no chancewith an x-box
 |
|
By:
chip, thought u said the prize mountain wont come to anything ?
|
|
By:
i said the last two they had changed the targets a few days before the end mate when they realised everyone was crushing it. i honestly couldnt say what will happen. my target was over 10k which is pretty reasonable for what i would be getting. and i have had confirmation its on its way, but they said that last time and didnt honour it.
some people were saying they were getting top prize for just 4,000 points, which looks on the low side to me given you got a month to get the points. if i get it then the daughters birthday present is taken care of but i aint counting my chickens. its a bf promo so owt could happen. |
|
By:
yeh im on about 35k points now
target for top prize xbox still says 4100 so im a bit skeptical of this |
|
By:
they cant not give u it for 35k mate. i'd say you is 1.01. i'm smashing mine too to be safe.
|
|
By:
1.01 ?
ok thanks for the reassurance I actually have an xbox with the red ring haha, a new one would be appreciated |
|
By:
i wouldnt know what to do with one. i got the netbook. hopefully.
more importantly up 40 buy ins in the last 9 days. so might have turned the bad run around. |

woohoo. won the london live package in the forum league but that is really 2010.
I have just gone out in two st ars comps AJ vs A9 SB vs BB, all in pre. flop A9x QQ vs AA all in pre. |
|
By:
Congrats on London package. You deserve it. Well played.
|
|
By:
sigh. AJ vs 97 on a J97 flop in the 100r on st ars. I reraised pre and was short :(
outstanding 50r here, 100 9pm and a couple of plo8 tourneys, then bed and a few days break I think |
|
By:
I'll meet you there Doobs
 I've seen the league table now and finished 3rd. I used my ticket on Sunday and won a package. Just booked flights an hour ago so I'm definitely going. Any help on a hotel? |
|
By:
flying in 9pm. I get min raised in the BB when holding 89 flop 688. table fish manages to get all his chips in with JJ. I thought I ran bad last year.
though just got lucky in 50 turbo, pushed when short with T9, called by AK and AQ and hit |
|
By:
The 9pm one was for the chip lead obv

By:
wp Ovalman on using your ticket well
|
|
By:
brilliant. I just had my 7BB shove called by Q7 off and my 20BB shove called by T9. Both hit, Q7 was a mighty 11% come the river as I had the nut flush draw. T9 clearly knew I had 66.
20 odd tourneys without cashing and 2 $200 stacks at omaha when favourite. Was going to try and moan less on these threads this year  |
|
By:
forgot to mention I did have one win this year. I got sent a $50 tourney ticket for the inconvenience caused by the greek colluders. Ofc they still didnt cheat, but better than nowt I guess.

decide to play a bit of cash while listening to the cricket and watching klup. It starts to rain in sydney. The software crashes and I fold 2 pr and a gutshot vs what was probably aces, then get a load of disco problems. quit £60 down, and it looks like klup has lost half his stack fml.
Total for year -£2850 + bf london seat +10% share in klup + rak eback. That is probably about -£2k |
|
By:
Thanks for reminding me. +10% in Klup. And won a $54 ticket in a turbo that I started in 4th hour Wednesday's APAT $5 rebuy. 8/60.
Tonight bubbled a 3.5k $3.30 turbo 11/around 1500 for +$40. |

3rd in the 10k for $1800 .... pretty tight 3 handed and some luck box gets it in with A7 vs AT rivers the 7 then AT vs AQ and rivers the T. Only cost me a couple of K ...never mind
