2008 Goals

2008 Poker Goals

1. Win a Mookie - I don't think I have ever even cashed in a Mookie. It's embarrassing.

2. Be 2008 overall money winner at the MATH - I was off to a good start last year, but dried up for the second half of 2007. Cashed in one so far, but the new 6-handed game is tough for me and I'm easily pushed around. Need to work on that if I'm going to reach my goal.

3. Play less SNG's - these things are a time sink. I used to think MTT's were a time killer until I really looked at my numbers. I've been playing 55+5 and 110+9 turbos and show an ROI of around 12%. That's pretty good, but I just can't see myself spending hours and hours grinding out $5-$10/SNG. I don't multi-table all that well, so long term, SNG's just are not going to make me much money.

4. Play more Cash games and MTT's - I used to be a cash game player. I guess I still am, but online I have moved away from it. I need to play more cash games (the 2-4 NL on Fulltilt seem to be pretty profitable) and use the money to fund MTT's and try for a big score. Grinding sucks, I really don't understand why anyone would want to be a professional poker player.

5. Score a 10K win in an MTT (live or online) - I want a big win. A cash in the 2008 WSOP would be nice, or a big online MTT win. Last year I busted towards the bubble in the WSOP. Will try to improve this year.

6. Go to Okie-vegas - The Gcox's rule and the lake looks great. I'll be there.

2008 Life Goals

1. Lose 40 lbs - Possible. I'd like to get down to 165.

2. Quit smoking - I wish.
