Default Re: Count-Down to SN Elite Chase!!

I give myself about a 10% chance of making elite.
When it first came out I thought I was less than 5% but then I looked at it some more and determined it's not as completely impossible as I initially thought.


Problem is that I'm playing crappily and losing. and I'm not sure the motivation is there either.


My quick 1k hand shot at 10/20 resulted in -$3500 which wasn't fun.

15k+ hands on 3/6 and 5/10 I'm +$600 though. Woo-hoo!!!

I do think I'm playing less crappily and getting it turned-around but these things are so hard to tell sometimes and I'm really freaking inconsistent (making nice folds, then calling-down with the worst possible hand imaginable because I just didn't think it through...partly from playing too many tables).


If I'm too tired or sucking too much I'll just give it up at some point. I refuse to BUSTO myself chasing this silly Elite thing.


These first few days are the key.
For 2 weeks in Jan and Feb I'm out of the country and will get in ZERO internet-poker hands I'm guessing.
So I think I need to get to at least 80k, and probably closer to 100k, VPP's by Jan 21 to still be in the running.
