Officially ahead of pace!!

I am now about 750 VPP's ahead of true pace and by the end of today should hopefully be a whole day ahead (or 2740 VPPS). This is a pretty good sign considering that after being on vacation for over a week this month I had anticipated catching up to pace in February.

I think it's going to be very key to front-load this challenge as much as possible, to prevent a very stressful December. So, my new goal is to have 300k VPPs by the time I go on another vacation in the last week of March. This will take about 3850 vpps a day, or about 6420 hands per day at my current rate of .6 VPP per hand. I will probably scale this back to a goal of 275k vpps by that point if I can't pick up my MSNL game. Either way, achieving that goal would put me in pretty good shape for the rest of the year.

My favorite hand of the year, so far. I haven't tried doing this in a very long time and it feels great when it works. It was a snapcall of course.
