Rebuilding a Bankroll

The East Coast Poker Championships are a litte more than 6 weeks away. I would like to be able to enter some satelittes for the $1,000 Championship Event as well as enter the $200 shootout. However, this past month of poker has been quite detrimental to my bankroll. In order to risk$40 on a satelite or $200 on a tournament, I need alot more fluid bankroll. This means I have to build myself up again. Over the next 6 weeks, I plan on going to the casino at least 6 times. Hopefully, I can pull in around $1,000. Otherwise, I won't be playing in anything.

In order to do this, I must play perfectly. I must be able to get off strong starting hands. I need to protect my starting hands. I need toprotect my vulnerable flops. I need to maximize chip extraction when I get the top hand. I need to make a move once and awhile. I also can't piss my money away on small $20 tournaments that will only slowly detract from my bankroll and won't really give me quality practice for larger tournaments against different styles of players. I've got a goal. Now I just need to attain it.
