Progress check

Now that 1/4 of the year is in the books, it's a good time to check my progress towards my 2016 poker goal. As a refresher, that goal was to wager 60 million play dollars playing sit and go no limit hold'em. It's the first time I've ever set myself a goal having nothing to do with profit. Actually, that's not quite true; profit figures into this goal too, albeit vestigially. Without making a profit now and then, there's no way I could ever achieve the goal. I'd go broke, and have no more play money to put up. Here are my numbers for the first three months of the year:

    wagered      profit  count  month

 $5,750,000  $1,607,500    115  January
 $5,150,000      $7,000    103  February
 $4,900,000   $-196,600     98  March

$15,800,000  $1,417,900    316

Right on target :-)
