Objectives

There's just going to be the one objective - keeping track - but implicitly I am looking to be quite frugal with the bankroll and this will tend to modify my approach a little in each of the 5 "venues":

1. Live cash: my live cash tends to be exclusively at the Gutshot/Powerhouse. I will probably avoid the Omaha games entirely and as for the PLH, I will concentrate on playing shorter sessions.

2. Live tournaments: again, this means Gutshot/Powerhouse: I will focus on the Monday £100 FO or Wednesday £75 FO as these are excellent dealer-dealt tournaments and I really want to win one this year. I failed to win a single tournament in 2007, which I wasn't happy about.

3. Online cash: I will probably play very little. I have had big spin-ups in online NLH but also very fast draw-downs. If I do play, I guess I will need to be highly disciplined and play at very low stakes.

4. Online tournaments: this is where I will focus in online. I may play some satellites - not something I have really done before - as that seems a plausible way to maximise the small bankroll.

5. Large events: by this I mean things like WSOP, EPT, WPT, GUKPT etc. and I also would include slightly smaller live events like the Gutshot festivals where the main event is a £500 buy-in. If I am being very disciplined then I may need to look at qualifying for such events rather than buying in.

I will consider the online & live bankrolls to be separate. I am not yet sure how to account for the possibility of any campaign to participate in the larger events.
