 I have a number of poker goals. They are a little open because I am not sure exactly about what part of poker I want to focus on. I will just throw everything out there and see how it comes out.

I would like to build my fundamental base for the game. This is what I need to focus on currently before I really get into my further goals.

Live goals – Beat live 1/2 cash games – I have next to no live experience. I do not feel I have enough confidence in my game yet to go play live cash yet. The little bit I have played, I thought it was a great time, but they seemed weak and beatable. 

Online goals – Play as a job – I would want nothing more than the ability to play poker as my profession. I enjoy every aspect of the game. From the math, strategy, to the psychological elements of it. I have never really had something like this that seemed to have everything I’ve had interest in, all in one thing.

My poker challenges

– Build a decent bankroll by the end of summer – I am going back to school in September for psychology, but I would like to prove it to myself that I can do something with poker. I guess I partially want a reason to focus on poker over school.

– Go to Vegas for WSOP 2018 – I want to be able to fund it with poker, or ideally make it a trip that is based around making money out there playing poker.

I am pretty excited about this game and find it really motivating thinking about the things that I can possibly make happen with it. I guess dreaming is one thing, and taking steps toward making your dreams come true is another.

Thanks for reading. I look forward to interacting with the forum. Meeting people, learning and enjoying this great game.

LOVE THIS!

Welcome to the TPE crew homie, I’ll definitely be following along your journey and will be posting a similar thread, after the first one went dead and I had to empty BR in to my life roll, with my goals for next 12 months!

Adding some volume based goals is highly recommended.  X amount of hrs playing live cash a week and X amount of online tournaments.  Volume is the way to beat poker along with countless hours of study.  I would add that to your goals as well, all on a weekly or monthly basis.

Welcome and GL
