Goals for 27th oct- december 31st

Just wanted to write down some goals to hopefully make them a reality and be motivated enough to achieve them.

Profit goal for next two months : 10k

volume goal : at least 4000 sngs/mtts

How I will achieve this will be mainly playing the 90s on ftp along with some mtts, and some play on pokerstars at the 45s/180s/mtts.

I think this will set me up nicely for the beginning of 2011 where I want to focus my attention to cash and rise up the limits.

Must update this blog with an update every week about how things are going.

From Donk to a Stud: The Hughezy Story

When we started working with Hughezy1, our goal as coaches was to get his lifetime graph into the green. We had him for 2,000 games and we thought we had a very good chance of him making almost $1 a game. It wasn't until we started coaching him that this dream became a reality. But it wasn't just us that turned his graph from looking like a fish to a true grinder.

Tim (Hughezy1) is a very driven motivated and driven poker player. Every coaching session he would show us hands that troubled him and we would do our best to help him to the best of our knowledge. He constantly asked us why we were telling him to play how he was playing. This is the most important thing we must do as poker players and in life for that matter. We shouldn't just go through the motions because someone tells us what is right. I know there was some point in his series of lessons where we shoved 72o. I'm pretty sure villain woke up with AA, but thats besides the point. He trusted our judgment and started looking for smaller and smaller edges.

Now the results:

Hughezy1's lifetime graph

Hughezy1's SNG Graph during our coaching period:

Over 2,000 games, he profited $1,410 over 2,000 games playing mainly the $3 and $6 SNG's. He also had a 22% ROI. He had very minimal SNG knowledge when we started, but like I mentioned before, he really worked very hard and put in a sick amount of volume.

I just wanted to thank him for being such a great student, and I wish him luck in the future.

Thanks Tim,
