April Recap/May Goals

Overall I believe April was a below par month for MTT's but it was pretty nice for heads ups, mainly the last 2 weeks in 220s, I did very well. Here's a graph to show how I did the last 14 days just in $220 2 mans....

MTT's have been real rough lately, I’ve been consistently getting stacks in mainly the $50 70k, the Nightly 100k, and the Weds 1/4 mil this past Weds, and just running bad. Haven't played as many MTT's this month as March, but in May I plan on playing many more, shouldn't be too hard since school is almost over. Here is my April Goal Review:


+$5000(not including rakeback)

-Thanks to a late surge, I was able to make this goal and a little more. And in addition to that I hit the 90k VPP mark so I collected all $1000 of my stellar rewards, and cashed that out as well.

27,000 VPPS

-Ended the month with roughly 28,400 VPPs.

Talk less in the chat(mainly less "run better" or "Well played sir")

-I feel like I have improved in this area a bit, but not as much as I would have liked, going to try to lessen the talk even more this month.

Play more standard vs. fish, instead of making hero plays.

-Basically the same thing here with this goal, I have played a tad more standard, but there's room for improvement.

Note Taking

I believe I have achieved this goal, especially note taking vs. regular fish in the 110 and 220s.

One thing that I think has helped my heads ups, is the environment that I play in now. I used to play in my room, with my laptop, sitting on my bed, watching TV. Now I sit at the kitchen table, with no TV, and just some music playing. It's more relaxing, and comfortable.

The Heartland Poker Tour is going to be at Turning Stone for the next couple weeks, and I plan on going for at least 1 event as of now, not sure if it's going to be a $300 tournament, or the main event for $1500. I’m basically using Turning stone to improve my live game/warm-up for WSOP. Here are my goals for May:

+6,000(again, not including bonuses)

Discuss more hands played in MTTs, with other MTT regs.

Watch a couple of Bfizz11's videos

Make top 200 TLB for May

Make at least 1 Final Table in the $50 70k



That's it for now.

PS- I turn 21 in about 7 weeks!!!
