My motivation

For the first time in a while I am really motivated to play poker. I got an e-mail from Shannon yesterday and he said that he was looking into finding a house to rent in Vegas for July so a bunch of young players like us could have a place to stay during the WSOP. We had talked about this before and it had seemed like a great idea, but after I got his e-mail I really started to think about how awesome it would be. I think I'd like to play about 11 events before the Main Event this year and maybe play some of the extra events if I get busted.

I have decided that I want to earn the entry fees in cash games on-line instead of taking a large chunk of my bank-roll and risking it in a single month. So I set up a list of goals in order to earn around 30k before the WSOP starts and not have to use any of my bank-roll. I think that this will allow me to play a lot better knowing that I am basically on a free roll and even if I don't cash at all I will be all the better from the experience gained. I do need to find a way to win my seat into the Main Event on-line, but that really shouldn't be very difficult considering how many seats are being given away on various sites.

I am really getting excited, it's a lot more fun when you are working towards a goal.
