2006 SNG Goals

[Jman28]

Stop playing SNGs.

This year I made about 10K from poker and whoring.

Next year I want to earn 10 K from the tables. I will start playing successfully the 55s within 4 months.

I will make less boners per tourneys.

Haven't posted on 2+2 in a while (and hardly ever in this forum). Where I am now: I 2-table $109s. I make about $15/game so a bit better than $30/hour. Oh, and I'm a student (returning, I'm 32) and poker is currently my only income. Goals:

1. Play 15-20 hours/week (30-40 SnGs) while school is in session, and 30-40 when it is not.

2. Make 40-50K, enough to pay the rent, tuition, expenses, and hopefully buy another monitor, as well as build my bankroll up to the point where I can:

3. Step back up to the $215s. I used to play those, but I got careless and a bit lazy when I quit my job to go back to school. Pretty much I was only playing ~10 hours/week and that just isn't going to get it done.

4. If I can get another monitor, see if I can 3-4 table when I can actually have 4 tables on screen at once. I can't even completely fit 2 on this little thing.

-play more MTT's and polish that game up
-be in vegas from start to finish of WSOP and play within my bankroll for the entire time i am there
-play at the SNG level where i will be most profitable and be the happiest, not the level at which my ego wants to be playing at
-always be improving
-convince unarmed to take me on as a 'macking' student

• Move up to the $55's as soon as 2006 starts (I doubt I'll fail this).
• Move up to the $109's somewhere around summer.
• Buy a 50" HDTV + PS3 from poker profits.
• Stop taking loans and start paying my education with poker only.
• Play at least 2x9 SNGs every day at least 25 days each month.
• Get confortable playing 9 sngs continously.

That is all, thank you.

-Slowly move from $22s to $55s.
-Do more multitabling and get better at it.
-Play more MTT tournaments.
-Win MTT with more than 45 players.
-Play more satellites to big Sunday tournament.
-Play my first double-shootout to WSOP.
-Average $250/month without playing more than 10 hours per week.
-Continue to improve through reading, using this forum and playing.

It looks like everyone on here is going to try to move to the $55's, so I guess I'll have to leave the $55's and get back to the $215's.

Main goal.... don't do anything stupid like quitting poker for almost a year like I did last year.

I've been back to playing the $55's every night for the last 2 months and can't figure out why I left in the first place. I will definately be back to the 215's by the end of the year.

2nd goal is to play many more MTT's. They are my favorite, but need to make the time to play them.

I just started playing this past fall, so I am a noob. I have lurked like crazy on 2+2. I've read a ton, and am building the bankroll.

So...

1) Continue learning. read through the hands posted on here, and get the nerve to post my own hands. Keep learning.

2) Focus on gaining experience and building a bank roll. Avoid temptation to move up quickly.

3) Be more disciplined when playing. Focus on the table, even when I'm out of the hand (I tend to drift once I fold). Watch how the rest of the table is playing.

4) PLay in a few of the big entry, large field events (through satellite quailfying). Maybe good finish the PS 180SNG.

5) Invest in some tools like SNGPT. Study.

6) PLay solid poker.

This pretty much sums up my situation and goals.
Good luck to all in 2006.
