I started playing (online) poker in the beginning of the year and I turned a winner somewhere around april.

I have been thinking of yearly, monthly, or weekly goals for next year. This being my first year I think my 2ok looks rather reasonable but what about next year?? Should I aim for 40k? 100k?. I can only play a couple of hours per day and that limites my winnings quite a lot. I, too, used to play on bodog with mr. Doggz but I decided that I will play ring, and most of my MTT's on euro sites because the winnings from EU area are tax free and if I keep on winning I want no issues with the local IRS. hmm, enough of rambling. I guess the point was setting a goal based on previous success. Any good examples you guys have?
Ping, Bodog is not located within the US. Futhermore, you do not live or work in the United States and the IRS cannot tax you on income. What that means? If you won the WSOP and of course you get taxed, you can actually get that tax payment back. Nothing to worry about.

But, I'm having fun with the fishies myself, more money for me
it is not a matter whether it is located in the us or not. But it is not located in EU either. That is all that matters. I live in Finland. I was talking about "local IRS", meaning our tax authorities. If I win wsop I would have to pay my taxes. That is one reason why some finnish pros arent playing there. That is why I am withdrawing my winnings from every non-EU sites except Stars, where I will play gauntlet and some other FTR related games.

on a side note, you are a WPP whore doggz :P
