Yes, this will be v v difficult....I suggest practicing like a fiend the next couple of months.

Yes, I will practice and give it a real shot, but as far as goal setting, I like to stick to realistic goals.

And yes, I'm taking the opposite approach to the smack-talking/I'm going to pw3n your arse for the STTFHUC II.

maybe im on one big long heater but i've come pretty far in 6 months so i'm gonna say:

8 table 109s with a new fp2001.
stay on course for a 1st in my degree.
[censored] hot chicks.

I don't really think anything else is needed.

I'd like to have purchased my 2 flat screens and be 10 tabling whatever SNG level/site I feel like.

My real goal is: donk my way into a final table in the 500k gaurunteed on Stars. Gotta use all those FPP's I rack up from 8-tabling to good use.

learning to handle bad (the really ugly-bad) varience a little better. i think my progress on that has been working well and it is the biggest overall goal of mine.

Moving up is another, but i'm going to need a job/other income stream before that happens.

2005 was a good year, started at the 5 +1s on party, and worked my way up to the 60 turbos on stars. Unfortunately, the 60s have been up and down, and my overall profit on that level has been slight. So, I moved back to the 27 turbos.

For 2006:

1. Pwn the 60s and move up at least to the 200s with good, fairly consistent profitability.

2. This of course means I have to figure out what was holding me back at the 60s, which I will do.

My goals:

1. Be content at winning a nice chunk of extra cash from 8 tabling the 22's
2. Take 1 day a week away from multitabling to try and learn at higher buyin sngs and try to learn how to improve my cash game play
3. Be honest with myself and improvements needed in my game. AKA not losing my entire bankroll
4. Win the 2006 WSOP main event and maybe a WPT title or three

My goal is simple -- to qualify for and play in large LIVE NL Holdem' tourneys (doing well in the event is second goal.)

As a Goal, I would like to eliminate mistakes. I feel like my biggest mistakes are not folding when I have a good starting hand and see a flop I really don't like. I have a tough time admitting that I'm beat or that I cannot bluff the opponent out at that point.

To do this, I would like to create an error log. I'm going to make a little java proggie that allows me to make notes on each game right after I play them and analyze my results accordingly.

I think this will help my game 2-fold.
1) I think that I will be able to see what mistakes I make most often and try to eliminate them when I see them transpiring.
2) Also, as I'm playing, I know that I will be writing notes on my play afterwards and won't want to write that I made a mistake, so I will go less with my "gut" and more with the smart "+EV" play.

Make 100k off poker average 3hrs or less a day.

Shorterm goals, I enjoy HU but I highly doubt I'll get anything close to $100/hr off that. So improve the $55s/move to the $109s, and maybe start playing ring.

My Goals for 2006...

Play online for less than 30 hours a week. This staring at a monitor thing is lame.

Play live more often.
I get a decent return at local charity tournies. Will play an average of 2 a week. Man they play strangely at these games. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Make four major trips to casinos.
Vegas twice, AC, Tunica for the long trips. Then a few to Indiana, Niagara and other local casinos.

Pay down the mortgage on some land I just bought with poker winnings. This poker money is just too good to be true, I need to turn it into something concrete before the party is over. It will be nice to say " I bought this with poker money"

I am going to shoot for $10,000 profit in 2006. I will not however let it take over my life. If my other job or my social life or my recreational life begins to suffer then I will not hesitate to rethink my goal.

I will respect the SNG's they have been my bread and butter. I will move back to party and play the 800 chippers and build a bankroll.

I will also not pass on great opportunities at the Limit games. PAHUD and game selection allows you to detect some real positive earning opportunities. When a table lights up with 40% in the flop and I can get one or two down on the waiting list I am in there even if the limit is a bit high for my BR. The flipside is that when the maniac fish leaves the table I will leave also.

Good luck to all of you on the forum.

Thanks for everything.

Might be nice to meet some of you guys but I do not drink or go to strip clubs so... all we would have is poker.

Maybe I should rethink my goals...
LEARN TO DRINK
MORE LAP DANCES
STRIPPERS STRIPPERS STRIPPERS

Maybe I can get a 2+2er to coach me on the new goals.
Nah I am happy being a puritan poker player.
