NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS/GOALS!!

1) Maintain this diary but this year I am going to keep a record of all my bets and poker tourneys to see how I get on as because any mini binks get swallowed up with life stuff it would be nice to see the true result (having been honest itt since the start I have no probs with this)

2) Final table at least one poker event in the £200+ live arena, last year i finished second in 2 x£100/150 100-300 runners and made a couple of day 2's of bigger events and reckon in the live arena probs showed a small profit despite not cashing in anything £300+ and am constantly thinking and learning about my game so really hope to tick this off.

3) Maintain a healthy Family/Poker/Punting/Work balance and appreciate the flexibility Petra gives me on these scores and the weekend a month up in Nottingham plus other trips.

4) Post more in PHA instead of reading and thinking "yeah I would do that" and not be worried about posting first even if I get flamed.

5) Continue to work on my game by spending some hours per week watching training vids/discussing hands with better players

6) Devote a certain amount of time/volume per week to online play as when I was chatting to Pleno (still BITB) and worked on a few things over a 2 month period my game defo improved and showed a decent 40%+ roi (over a small sample) on euro sites but towards the end of the year I was playing more Live and doing nil online except the odd satty to something.

7) Cut out bets on live events just for the sake of watching it even though it may be £40 these bets all add up during the year!!

Finally I want this year to get and stay in shape for the year as over the past year I have put on a little bit of TERRY and although I still have a decent shape need to refocus on this. I dont wish to put up any weight targets like in other threads as for me it's about how I feel I look in clothes as opposed to weight.
I am currently one of David Lloyds fav customers in that I maintain my Gym membership but dont go  Sad so am going to go 3 x per week to get back into it and do my a good carido circuit to get back in shape and then work from there.

Am going to post some pics (obv breathing in) so I have a starting point and something to look back on.

GL me in 2012!!

Yeah tbh I joined 6 years ago and they have only put up my membership a few ££ in that time and also when I joined I made sure I could use all the David Lloyd clubs so when playing a festival event or at DTD can use the clubs around (or not as the case has been for the past 7 months  Wink)
