I want to make $1000 this year from 10nl online full ring poker. 2018 was a learning experience so this year im ready. I also would like to win an online tournament.

Having just finished my yearly accounting:

At least double the volume of 2018 (I played a lot less than I thought I did).

Play only freeroll mtts online, and Max 3 "shits n giggles" paid live mtts. Resist the urge to just randomly try and be an MTT player for a month.

Similarly, don't just randomly decide to be a PLO or mixed game player. Don't mind doing some entry level PLO study and play (as long as I do both those things) whenever I can't stand holdem.

Make £5k that can be withdrawn without dropping below safe BR levels for live cash. So actually, make £6.5kish. This may be slightly unrealistic at my skill/volume but I can dream.

Average one training video a week or better.

Schedule my play/study periods better. Log my time better. Maybe a journal, maybe just a checklist.

I played 1999-2004ish. When the poker boom happened with Moneymaker, I stopped live and online. Looking to get back into it. I miss old PartyPoker days. So much money changed hands. Asked the wife if she would mind if I get back into it, played 2/3 and I was far to aggresive.

What's the best site now for online? Califronia here.

Your options are Globalpoker.com Ignition, ACR, 64spades.com, and that's about it.

Ignition is old bodog/bovada?

Thanks for the response. Appreciate it.

Ignition and bovada (formerly bodog) are on the same network.

BetOnline is another good option for us players.

Booked up a WSOP trip and am setting myself a goal to cash the 50th anniversary event.

Continue being a winning player in live MTT's whilst upping my average buy-in amount.

Remove distractions such as drink and drugs and negative toxic people and reduce my monthly expenses by moving and changing job contract.

TailoredFrog•

Play 26 sessions live. That’s an average of one every other week.

Profit 4k, to start building a healthy bankroll.

Continue to watch/study at least once per week.

Plan and prepare for another Vegas trip, during WSOP, in 2020.

2019 goals. 200k hands per month minimum.

  1. 1 big bet an hour minimum. Should be easy considering I did .89 last year with a 10k and a 12k downswing and too much shit faced playing in general.

  2. more mixed games. I've been having a blast learning new games and they are extremely profitable as the dudes who play the limit I'm learning at suck like its 2003 all over again.

  3. 800 hours. Again, should be pretty easy.

Make it a point to get to the PLO games that are a bit of drive for me and only run certain days. Actually put together a strong bankroll. I’m thinking a healthy 50k by the end of the year.

increase flop + turn aggression w/o sacrificing winrate, attempt to move up stakes every few months if all goes well

Mindset - Play the game to improve, not to win.

Quantifiable - Study at least an hour at least 5 days a week.

Wish list - Travel somewhere for a tournament series and play in a few events.
