Haven't done a poker resolutions in a few years. Guess I've gotten boring or nothing much new happens.
For 2014 the plan is to basically continue where 2013 left off. Still playing online $10 PLO. Presently just crossed the 10k hands milestone and still numerous buyins in the red. For consistency I'm underwater in all 3 sites Stars, Tilt and Party. Well that makes it a bit easier in a sense as I can tackle them separately while chasing the occasional bonuses or whatnot.
It's disappointing to be a losing player in $10 PLO after these months and thousands of hands but whatever. I've become more used to the variance which I'm pretty sure is greater than that in hold'em. So the plan is to keep trying to game select well and play well and eventually positive results will follow. 10k is a minimum sample size anyway so the plan is to just be optimistic and keep at it. So the goal is to erase the losses and bring it back to even.
While focusing on online I haven't been to the local casino in over 6 months. $1/$2 no limit was fine, I enjoy playing live and nothing terrible happened. Time is just limited so I decided to focus on online PLO. The goal for 2014 is to reappear at the casino and become a weekend reg again. As I've alluded to before there may be a bit more to say about live play in the hopefully nearer future.
For online a goal is to get back into tournaments. I haven't been anything of an online tournament player in several years now. Read a new tournament book, start at the $5 level in PLO and NLHE and across whatever sites. The goal is to get playing tournaments again and at least break even at the $5 level.

Don't chase your online losses. Don't set that as a goal either. :)
anon I've come to realize you are right. I'm changing course and refocusing on live poker. I hope to have something more to say about live play later this year.
Did you give up on poker live/online for sports betting now? Proline isn't beatable. Their vig is too high.
yeah there have been some life issues of late and live and online poker along with some other activities had to be dropped.
I agree that proline isn't beatable due to excessive vig. which sucks for the players there, regular folks who the lotto corp exploits and takes advantage of. I picked bodog for now they have a nice user interface and good marketing.
I got some nfl season totals plays in. it was fun getting into football again. will see if there's enough time for sports betting ongoing. hopefully there will be
Hope the life issues sort themselves out and aren't financial / gambling related. Stumbled onto your blog from the Casino NS thread at 2+2. Perhaps one day I'll see you at 1/2. Take it easy.
