Going (semi)Pro

[PShabi]

Well, in a couple of weeks, I'll be on vacation for the summer. No work, all poker.

I've decided to try and set some goals for myself, to see what it would be like playing professionally.

During the 2 months I'm off, It is my goal to play a minimum of 30 hours/week. Right now, I'm probably at around 10-14 hours, so it will be a lot more poker. But, I'll have a lot of free time. I'm going to try to go at it like a job Monday, Wednesday, Thursday 8 hours a day. If I can stomach it, I'll squeeze whatever else I can into the other days. I've never played much more than 6 hours straight before, but I'll be able to knock out 8.

I'm going to start out 4-tabling 3/6. Rakeback should be nice. My goal is to eventually get to the 5/10 6-max tables. I do have some work yet to do at 3/6 though, as this level has been tough for me so far.

Will I get rich? Will I die trying? Will I get sick of poker? I'm interested in seeing how this turns out. I'll also be looking forward to being able to sharing my trials and tribulations with you guys. Look for more posts starting late in the first week of June.

School's out for summa!!!!!
