Near misses were the order of the day, meaning (just) failed on most targets.
1. To achieve top 20 by end of month on Aussie's "best player"- (currently 420th)-finished 21st 2. To win 4 tracked MTTs-won 3 3. To final table 10 tracked MTTs-11 4. To FT 2 Main or Mini-1 5. To end the month in profit-small loss
In a way, this shows variance in its usual form-short burst of high profit followed by a longer period of smaller losses.
In separate news, BetVictor are closing their poker offering (though maintaining all other betting operations). This is another blow to the Microgaming network, after the PKR nonsense. Nice to see, 1 month in, that I have received precisely 1 generic email from the Administrators of PKR. Not prepared to bet that that means the costs are low . Always nice to see the Gambling Commission sitting on their hands doing precisely what they always do...what are they there for?
many might forget that you set high targets and quickly beat them, then chose to reset them even higher. each one of your 5 targets is a quest well above the aspirations of most others. well above mine.

That many? You sure?
No surprise to see BMU close their poker offering. They had almost zero traffic, & that had been the case for some time. Expect a few others to follow them in the near future.
PS - "BMU" stands for "Butter me up", as per Bet Victor's rather curious TV advertising campaign.

hi phil,
your achievements are superb.
many might forget that you set high targets and quickly beat them, then chose to reset them even higher. each one of your 5 targets is a quest well above the aspirations of most others. well above mine.
congratulations.

PS - well done on the challenge. I'd say they were pretty good results for a man of your age & abilities.
