| April Goals Thread This was such a good idea that I think it needs to be repeated. I especially like the conclusion part of the thread where people posted how they actually did in regards to their goals! Anyway, for April: 1. Play 10k hands of 5/10. That ought to be enough to keep me at Platinum VIP level at Stars. 2. Move to the new house. Wooooo! 3. Regret having made a goal of playing 10k hands, because I'm busy moving and cleaning. 4. Only spew chips on the turn and river half as often as I have this month. 5. Run really really hot for each of these 10k hands. IT CAN BE DONE I TELL YOU. 6. To avoid getting anywhere near as drunk as TB was the other day, because I'm too old for the hangover that ensues. How about you? |

| very good idea: 1. Put second home on the market 2. Pay the sailing club membership and get out in a dinghy at least 4 times 3. Play a few low limit tournaments at Bodog & the freerolls and win at least one 4. Do something at Full Tilt to start reclaiming my deposit bonus 5. Ratchet up the spread betting and investing with a target £5k+ 6. Plant the vegeatable seeds. 7. Eat, drink and be merry. Last edited by TheRifle : 29th March 2007 at 11:25 AM. |

You scared me I thought you were setting goals for me 1) Play at least 5 Mtt's per week with 1000+ people 5$/10$ 2) Stop playing bigger money ring games, I'm no good there. 3) Read more posts in Hand analysis thread and learn something new. 4) Start taking Jimbo's and Jay's money at 1/2cent tables.

| 1) Finish my goal of making $1000 on $50NL and move to $100 NL for the rest of the month, only $40 to go but if your anything like me then the last hurdle is the hardest. 2) Not be on the $50NL tables long enough to let Dakota reach her goal. 3) Learn to read flop textures better, and actually take more heed of the more marginal PAce stats. |

| Well, not sure if I'm going to have internet in April but here we go. These are a big change from March. 1] Figure out my problem post-flop in hold 'em. I seem to lose way to much money after the flop. 2] Find $100 to deposit so I can get away from the penny tables. Longshot Goal 3] Change my SharkScope to a +ROI% oh yea: 4] To take all of tenbob's money in whatever game he plays. Current SharkScope: |

| re: April Goals Thread poker 1) Continue to take money from people who say things like: "Ya gotta bet that gut shot hard incase it hits" when the board is showing three of a suit and I'm holding the nut flush 2) Get the bankroll to the point where I can get away from playing people mentioned in #1 3) Trip to AC and play my first "real, live poker" ... while my wife plays roulette 4) Kiss my wife more times than she says "Are you playing poker AGAIN Pete?" 5) Pull out the deck furniture, guitar and beer cooler and spend some fun times with my wife, kids, dog, friends and the outdoor fireplace so that I hear LESS of #4 6) Play AT LEAST one round of 4 or more online tables at the same time on my living room wall (8'x6' Hi-Res LCD projection screen) when no one is home 7) Get "Rock" to signup at CChat since he'd fit in well |

| 1) Build up my bankroll high enough playing SNG's and .05/.10, so i can afford to be playing in the .50/1 games im used to. 2) Clear my bonus. Still got a ways to go. 3) Don't play excessively. Meaning stop when im up, don't get greedy. 4) Play with some CC players. 5) Have fun! 6) Get a job -- least important |

| My goal is to do at least one SnG a day and have a positive ROI. Last two months I have been just below even. Build my bankroll by 100%, just kidding. I want to see if I can increase it by about 20% for the month by cash games and SnG. Play at least 2 MTT at PS and FT. |

| Man, fast growing thread. But last month's was pretty interesting. 1) Continuation of last month; get another 100 FFPs on my goal to clear the deposit bonus before the end of June. I'm close to 150 for the month of March so another 100 in April doesn't put too much pressure on. A second level target is 200 for April, which is also doable if I get more comfortable multi-tabling. 2) Continuation of last month; try not to lose my deposit in the process of going after 1). I don't like to set positive money targets for myself yet as I'm still playing too many hands and chasing with too many weak hands, so I find having "protection" money targets a better fit for my weaknesses right now. 3) Figure out what more of the stats in PT are telling me about myself. 4) Figure out more of what PAce is telling me about other players, then actually remember to use that information. 5) Try not to embarrass myself too much while playing on the CC Costa league. |

| Wow this is a great idea, Ive been thinking of things I want to do and I think writing them down will be a great help. Alright, here are mine. 1.) Read HOH and maybe one other poker book 2.) Finally withdraw some of my winnings on bodog to pay for my MLB.TV package 3.) Play a little less poker than I have in march. I have finals at the end of april to get ready for 4.) Play golf atleast 5 times while I can get on for free at my campus course 5.) Play atleast 2 of the Saturday CC $10 Buy-in at bodog |

| 1.) Play against the best CC has to offer on FT. 2.) Increase my ROI% even more 3.) Break 2 grand on my acct (gonna take some work) 4.) Strictly reinforce BR guidelines 5.) Play against the FT pros more often 6.) Get a complete understanding of implied odds 7.) Win 20-40 heads up matches and shoot outs for 10-20$ |

| I hope don't jinx FP by posting, but I think his month, like mine to some extent, has already been jinxed. I made my goals 1) and 2), but everything with mixed results. If it wasn't for a couple of stabs at $25 PL that both ended up plus, I would have been down net for the month. After a pretty solid March, April started shaky right on the first day and got worse. 3) 4) and 5) are hard to measure. Who was it that said "April is the cruelest month" ? Quote:
