To be bumped at a later datePost your goals (can be poker or non-poker related).Poker-Be rolled to play $20-30 tourneys without depositing all the time. Work my way up to that limit instead of praying on a big score.-WIN a tourney with 500+ players.-Play in UBOC, FTOPs, SCOOP, and WCOOP events this year.-By next September, be a frequent player in the Sundays. Qualify if needed.Non-Poker-Get down to 180 pounds or my BMI down to a healthy number.-Advance in my job.-Get out of the house more in general.That is all for now. More to come later probably. Good luck all in the end of 2009, and into 2010.
