OK, I'll give this a shot. Have been thinking about goals recently anyway.

I'd like to play at least two local tournaments per month, and more than that (obviously) when on vacation in Vegas, which I'm well on my way to making a regular habit. I'd also like to become more comfortable and more proficient (read: out of the red) in cash games.

I'd like to play in at least one wsop event next year, whether I get entry through a satellite or build up my bankroll enough to buy in directly.

Oh yes, and I'd like to win a tournament, which is something I've yet to do in the B&M poker world.

I like this thread :) My goal is to get back the 10% I lost on my BR after a brutal run of cards by months end. I'll decide my growth rate once I achieve this initial goal!

Took me awhile but mission accomplished!

I've already achieved my bankroll "goal" for this year - and I still have 3 months to go:

Withdraw 5K in profits from bonus-whoring and/or poker playing to my bank account.

This is only because the Mrs and I have this nice little deal where at the end of the month anything over $1000 in my bankroll is "swept" into my bank account - this does reduce the bankroll potential, since I can't rollover profits and move up to 2/4 games, but it does allow me to use my winnings before doing something stupid like losing it on a poker or bad sportsbook bender, as well. :D

This is GREAT! I have three goals. The first is to go to a casino and play holdem at a table and not shake like I'm having sex the first time by the end of 2006.

Second goal is to grow the $7.50 I won yesterday finishing in second place at WPE $50 Free Roll tourney to a $100 by 11/01/2006.

Third goal is to grow my $1.00 bankroll at bodog to $200 by the end of this year.

After considerable thought, my initial goal is to make 1k by christmas starting with a bankroll of 50.00, which I will deposit by the sixth of october.
but tonight I'm entering a .10 tourney in hopes of making 50(a mini goal to start).
Will keep you up to date with whats going on, and will need some help achieving my initial gaol as I can be quite the procratinator.........lol

I would like to make $50 in to $75 or $100 before the end of '06.

Breaking even is fine too, but you've got to keep thinking positive hehe

I'm starting a new challenge for myself

Primary Challenge
Turning $300 in BR into $600 from $10+1 SNG's by November
Follow up goal
Turning $600 into $1200 in $20+2 SNG's by Jan 1st 2007

I plan on it taking 500-1000 SNG's to move up through each level unless I get on a really good run.


Secondary challenge
Playing a $11 and $22 2000+ person tourney nightly, and by EOY be at least even. This goal is mostly to get free experience, on a regular large game.

Tertiary Challenge
Winning an entry into the 2007 WSOP for less than $1000 invested in sattelite buy-ins

This thread likes to fade away a lot.

I'm new here but I'm up for this. My goal is to make my $20 deposit last year hold up until retirement. Actually my exact bankroll is $14.56. I want to turn it into $100 by...lets say...October 1st. My secondary goal is to be withdrawing $100 a month starting Christmas.

The only thing that'll stand in my way is the "GOOD DEALS" satellites offer.

Well I built that up to almost $200 but then lost it all one drunkin night. With all the bills unpaid I havent been able to deposit and have been freerollin'.

NEW GOAL!!!

I won 0.25 in a freroll on Tropical yesterday and I have that up to $9.47 just by messin' around here and there. My new goal is to get that to $50 by the end of next weekend October 29th.

I also have $30 in bonus cash on poker.com that I want to turn into $100. I'll set my sisters birthday for that one (Nov 4th).
