Setting and Achieving Goals

Published by Chris at 1:56 am

I have set myself various Poker Goals over the short, mid, and long term. Some of which I’m close to completing, others…well not so close.

One of the short term goals I had was to satellite into the PokerStars Sunday $1,000,000 Guaranteed tournament. It’s one I had set a while back, but I’ve never really attempted to complete it until tonight. Where at the first attempt I’ve managed to win a seat in the tournament.

I played a $10 + $1 Double Shootout and managed to come from way behind to win my first table. The when the second table started i was card dead for what felt like an eternity. Eventually I started picking up some hands, and there were a few time where I managed to pull the winning card out on the river, (it always seemed to be against the same guy, who happened to win the other seat).

I’m pretty pleased with myself at the moment, simply because I sat down tonight with qualifying as my main priority and I managed to pull it off on the first attempt.

Here’s hoping I do well on Sunday.
