Can everyone please post 1 thing that they vow to change about their poker in 2009. Perhaps we can learn from each others mistakes...

My resolution,

STOP OVERPLAYING AK - Looks great, especially when suited but god it gets me into trouble - Lay it down when I have to.

Please add something, anything no mater how stupid..... We can all learn. (well I can at least)

Actually, I have these backwards. Because if I manage to run better I will automatically tilt less and play a lot more. :D

Try to do what Zach, ChuckTs, and BW did for me in the beginning of 08 by lending a helping hand for hand history reviews and sweats to guys that are grinding 10nl and 25nl at least once a week. Trying to give back as I recognize those three in particular went out of their way to help me.

Stop spewing after acquiring a juiceee stack and beat the donk bet with a ten tonne hammer. Get some sweat sessions going on via teamviewer an Skype, read more cash game books, play in more MTTs. Ok maybe not 1 resolution ;)
Finally, get to 100nl by December 2009

Stop bluff 3-betting the flop in 3-bet pots. Seriously, who knew shipping in 200bb's with air was a bad idea?

I want to learn pot odds like it was second nature, and quit overbetting those middle pocket pairs and let it come to me. That may be the same thing huh? oh well I guess just keep learning.

be patient, fold more hands, and pay attention to other players when I am not in a hand, and most important... win more!

Playing less agressive sometimes (before getting on tilt !) and stopping to play only to be in paid places, but trying to reach the top places to earn more (even if I had to win less often).
That would give me a strongest experienced for heads-up tourneys :)

Another wish : Play with experienced players, learn them, and being able to make them get out ... ;) Simple : No ! Interesting : Of course

Cheers

Stop getting drunk, taking a bad beat and proceed to play a 42/40 with 18 3bet and convince myself none of these donks have a HUD or pay attention.
