What are your aims in poker?

I have started poker again (I previously have done ok but stopped playing for quite a while) and I have one definate aim in the game atm.

My aim is to make £600 a month for 10 months to make a total of £6k.

The reason being, my finacee has always wanted a dream disney wedding, we cant afford to fly our families out there and £6k is three weeks in Orlando as a honeymoon.

This is my only aim atm, it focus' the mind.

My princess is my happy ever after and I want to make this happen for her so badly.

So guys, why are you playing?  Money?  Fun?  Targets?

    I started playing about 6 months ago...my number one aim is to find out how I can stay connected to more than one table at a time ( see tech chat). Number two is to not bother setting unrealistic aims.





    Sorry.

    Yeah mate thats right.

    I play mtts too but am on some awful luck on them.

    Update: Made the £600 target for march, push on for more I guess :D
    (admittedly it was helped that I decided to waste £5 on a slot machine, it gave me the reel king bonus at 20p a go and rolled in a ton lol).

    lol

    It is achievable yes,  I play most evenings and weekends. 

    I am not that good a player either tbh and have loads of flaws, but I guess that doesnt matter when playing against weaker players, having a good knowledge of the game and learning as we go :D

    i think you could achieve 600 quite easily at those stakes, just gotta be able to stay focused and not let the beats get to you, which im incredibly good at ;)
