    Unintentional paradox of the year :D

    Hmmm lemme see.... ok, mine:

    - Get better at poker+football+snooker

    - Qualify for an EPT event.

    - improve my posture/start physiotherapy.

    - then >>> Get fit. Stop eating so much junk. popcorn especially.

    - Avoid posting in Holdem Theory section

    popcorn is quite healthy (its 1/5 water and has fibre in it), so as long whatever you put on it is ok it should be fine

    Nearly fulfilled last yrs resolution - if it wasn't for starting work (eek) I think I woulda made it.

    For this year, I plan to create poker software to run home games and games on mobile phones using bluetooth - and have 50 people use it / day.

    Playing wise, I'm going to try to never drop down to .50/1 or below.

    LOL :p i was on a table with you, cant remember where (Red Cow maybe), and you were hammered and playing really well. I dont think i'd ever seen anyone that drunk play that good, impressive!! Think it was like a massive 48 hour degen session. Anyway i thought you were a total lunatic (in the nice way!!) :D Gonna add it to my list of Resolutions to play 1 game of live poker with you 2008 when you're sober ;)

    I'm another "up 1k" on the year man for 07, so modest targets, in order of priority, for 2008 are:

    1. End appalling bad streak in live play

    1a. Assist in this effort by trusting my instincts and reads on players - end thought processes which go "he's playing tight, he wouldn't have bet without quality, he has you beat and if you call / go all-in and lose, you'll be crippled, ah sure he might be bluffing I'll push"

    2. Qualify for a major Irish event - do not sell the ticket

    3. Make enough profit online to pay for a decent holiday

    4. Win Ladbrokes Tuesday night $300 tournament

    My ambition is to not read any poker books, as imo they harm your game.

    If this year started in June I'd probably have achieved all of my goals for 2007.

    For 2008.

    1) Play one supersat to a major event every week.
    2) Play 1000 STTs a month.
    3) Get into top 50 online STT players on sharkscope for the year.
    4) Play WSOP, Irish Open and 2 EPTs.
    5) Play more big online multis.
    6) No live cash games.
