Failing "Mission 7.5k VPP in 2 weeks"

The grind of earning 7500 VPP's in 2 weeks at 50NL is not as easy as I once thought. I am pretty sure I am not going to make this target, which is a shame, although in hindsight will not prove too costly. After reviewing the promo (which has pissed off many non UK players on Stars), reaching just 3k VPP will reward me with an extra 70K VPP and Platinum Star status till the end of July! Not bad, but really only worth something if I make Supernova this year.


Presently, I am unable to put in long hours due to a "fear of doomswitch" and the fact I have to stack my tables...which can be quite demanding! I am operating under a limited roll and due to past experiences, I am quitting sessions early after I am up just 1 or 2 buy ins. This is silly and just delaying any inevitable bad run of cards. At some point I am going to have to concentrate for longer periods and accept this will increase the emotional strain of playing. :-(


However, I am running nicely thus far, at just under 8bb/100 over 13.5k... may it continue! I have yet to really experience any bad suckouts and in general, feel I'm playing OK. I will begin to post interesting hands shortly.

Will keep you updated!

Rich.
