    Play Venice Poker Festival ME 18-20 Sept. and cash (at very least!)

    Play a couple of live games in Dublin and try to go deep or at least make an early exit so I can head to the pub/club.

    Or get a massive score in a WCOOP event ;) Well done.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22 BurningMoney


    Concentrating on the game at all times.
    Keeping a cool head at all times.
    Not feeling frustrated if losing and not feeling overly happy if winning. Basically aiming not to bring any emotion into the game.
    Putting in the work off the tables by analysing various opponents stats in holdem manager.
    Beat .10/.20 for a decent winrate and move to .25/.50.

    Shipped a massive straight and flush draw and missed just before the bubble. Could have easily folded into the money.

    2. Grind 60K fpps at microstakes on PPP if BCB comes through with a bonus, then ship the Pro thingie.

    I mostly wont because he sorta did but didn't really and that rules out the then bit.

    3. Wake up before noon a few times (letting the cat out and going back to bed doesn't count).

    Passed with flying colours

    Edit : Forgot 4. Take $50 off full tilt for 1 fpp per day playing 2 tables :)

    Easy, with Thanks to 3. Have been getting up at 11ish and playing happy hour on FT for 10 or 15 mins while checking emails.

    For anyone else doing this, the happy hour points don't seem to count towards the Take2 promotion.

    However you do get double points for playing 2 tables during the promotion anyway.
