Time for another check on how my progress is going as I attempt to meet my bankroll goals. I find this kind of analysis is important to reaffirming my goals as well as ensuring that I’m not straying from my original strategy which is easy to do when beset by impatience, overconfidence and complacency. The temptation to begin pushing harder after a little bit of success can cause me to deviate from the original plan and away from the discipline that brought the success in the first place.
I acknowledge that I’m a better poker player than when I started this challenge, but I also acknowledge that I’m nowhere near as good as I will have to be if I am going to succeed at the higher levels.
| Goal | Actual |
|---|---|
| Play 100 hands / day | Playing 99.7 hands / day |
| To show a profit | Current profit is at 114% |
| To have a bankroll big enough to allow 20 buy-ins at the next level | Bankroll = $66 Current profit / day is 0.98. The target minimum is $100 which works out at only 0.53 / day. |
So I can conclude from this little summary that I am safely on course to achieve the goals I have set for myself. (Insert warm inner glow of indulgent self-congratulation here). I admit that I can improve HOW I play, but, for the standard with which I am mixing it, I'm doing OK.
