2006 is almost over and its time for some reflection and some looking forward (with goals).
At the beginning of the year I was playing some 0,50/1,00 limit and basically playing break
even. I limped KJo UTG and probably made lots of other stupid moves (lots of slowplaying).
During february I decided to switch to SNG's and some tourneys. I bought some books (theory
of poker was the first one). Through this book I found out about www.twoplustwo.com which
is a great site with lots of good advice from very experienced players.
I played about 1,000 SNG's with an average return of about 20% and won a $6 tourney for about
$1250 in April. That moment I decided to move to No limit (full ring). I started at NL100
with a BR of about $3000. Did this for about 3 months (moved to NL200 with $6000 in July)
and then came to the conclusion that everybody was moving to 6max.
At full ring its basically just set mining, 6 max is a total different game, but I think its
lots more fun and you have a bigger advantage against the donks at your table. Started in
August with 6max and a bankroll of $7000 and I've never regretted that decision.
After NY my bankroll is back to about $23,2K (withdraw 3K) and as some of you know I will
start as a 'pro' beginning in february/march. I really have the feeling that this is the
right moment to take the step. Especially here in the Netherlands poker is really booming
and with all the legilation issues in the US you never know how long it holds on and I don't
see myself doing this for more then 3 years.
I'm gonna try to play about 35 hours poker each week and also teach about 4 starting players.
My goal for next year will be to make about an average of 12,5K per month. Take one month
holiday off and january as I will not play full-time in that month and my goal for next
year is about 130K. Yep I know it sounds like a lot, but I really think it should be
attainable because I think I'm capable of playing anywhere between 80K and 100K hands a month.
To get to this goal I don't even have to play higher then NL200 for this. So when I will move
up to NL400/NL600/NL1000, which is likely giving the BR I will probably have somewhere in the
middle of the year, this will be a lot more (if I'm a winner there as well).
I think a winrate of 3 - 3,5 while 8-tabling NL200 and 6 on NL100 is possible for me.
Offcourse I can move up earlier, but I just like my low variance income this way (my StDev
is about 39BB/100 which is pretty low). Offcourse I will try NL400/600/1000 when the time is
good for it so my goals ($ wise) are likely on the low side....
Goals 2006:
Play 1,000,000 hands
Earn $120,000 in cash games
Earn $ 15,000 in bonuses
Learn 4 students to play NL100 6 max as a winner
Wish you all a very happy, healthy and profitable new year!

Back from NY
Finally an update again. Back from NY, which was very impressive.
That city really never sleeps. Maybe I post some photos later on.
Back home I played 2 very lang sessions of about 4 hours each and after a my upswing I now know again what a downswing looks like....
The most funy was one hand was at Full tilt at the deepstack table (200BB).
I re-raised an aggro donkey with AsKs and he called, flop was 7s4s2s and he open pushed 170BB all-in. I called and he showed 88. Turn 8 river 2...gg me.
This one was funny as well:

Some other big pots were mostly due to cold decks....KK vs AA two times and QQ vs KK one time. And offcourse the set over set 77 vs AA.
Then one hand that could be called tilt, although I doubt he would call with AJ/AQ here (thats what I thought he had).

Oops....I did it again
On the last day of my goal I finally reached the 25K.
It was a really though challenge, but since I'm playing 8 tables I feel like playing my best poker ever.
Some stats for the last 18 days since 8-tabling:
Hands played NL100: 19,207 >> 6,89 PTBB/100
Hands played NL200: 6,318 >> 6,75 PTBB/100
Amount won: $4,449
MT ratio: 6,27
$ won per hour: $102
Current BR: $25,135

My goal is getting closer.....
On the 1st of november I stated my goal for the 15th of december as follows:
"So that $25,000 will be my goal for 15 december. It will be a though goal, but it should be achievable, at least with all the bonuses and rakeback I receive now."
And although I'm not playing as much hours as some other months I'm really close in reaching this goal. My second monitor for playing 8 tables on stars is really paying me off. Since I bought it 2 weeks ago, I played 30 hours of poker and made exactly $3000 in 19,000 hands.
I believe that when you're playing poker seriously, you should really have at least one 20 inch flatscreen. It is so important to have a good set-up and no overlap that you will earn it back in just a few days. I bought both of my monitors for less then $500 in total and I think that shouldn't be a big problem for someone playing NL100.
So for those players on NL100 that are still staring to their 17 inch CRT monitor.....go buy some real stuff, it will earn you so much more money then it will cost you.
On to some poker....after 8-tabling NL100 for 16,000 hands I today decided to do some 8-tabling on NL200. I must say that there are some really tough players on NL200 on stars, but as everywhere it's also full of fish, but I must say that NL200 on stars is the toughest competition I've seen.
Some hand from this morning:
