Win 100 000 SEK (around 14k I estimate). It should be quite easy, but it's a big milestone for me.

Move up to/take shots at 400NL

My new year's resolution is to play no fewer than 40 hours per week. Not only that, but to take my bankroll to $60,000 by June 20. Only got $57,976 to go.

Edit: I also have to resolve to not freeroll when I'm not in the mood to play. It only brings my game down.

1st off Galapagos pwns "1 liner" responses in this thread....


now my resolutions:

1. take action instead of talking/planning stuff such as
a. quit my lame day job as soon as humanly possible, which requires aquiring enough private music students, and more gigs.

b. recording CDs of two band projects, 1 being a trio, and another a 7 piece latin jazz group.

2. cash in a big (field) MTT for 4 figures

3. work more on limit HE cash game skills.

4. commute less..... (see #1 a)

5. qualify for 2007 WSOP main event.

Basically did it, then I went full time in Aug. (not by choice), now I run between $25nL and $200NL, depending on when and if I have withdrawn.

Not even close to where I was planning to be in my poker career, but not gonna sweat it either.
