1. ) Enter 1/2 as many Stud Hi pots in ring games. Stop playing trash like (66)8 outside of steal spots.2. ) Play some PLO. There's no good reason that I've ignored it this long, there are way too many mid-buyin tourneys that run during times I'm actually able to play.3. ) Play a $4.40 under my own dime (still never have). Ironic, because when I first started my goal (lol) was to be able to play $4.40s with "the big boys". Now that they are well within my BR range, I still haven't made the leap. Cash games hath taken over. 4. ) Take better notes on *everyone* I play against on my limits, to aid with both table selection and marginal situations.5. ) Stop missing so many value bets. I've fallen way too much in love with check/call river lines in limit games where I need to start getting worse hands to call a river bet, instead of being content to induce occasional bluffs. Major leak, imo.6. ) Take $800 to $2000. Maybe $3000.

1. Play more poker!2. Improve my tournament play.3. Play more poker!4. Get full control of tilt.5. Play more poker!6. Move up two levels in LHE. ($200 - $600)7. And again, play more poker!Currently I'm playing like 60 hands a day on average during the semester. That's pathetic. I want to improve this to 150 at least. Uni will still be my priority, but I can still find time at night to play poker.

1) Get better at value betting. I think it was Cappy who posted in another thread that we can all make the big laydown, but I know I miss FAR too many bets. 2) Stop playing hands for one more street and either wasting a bet or putting myself in a situation where I get the thin draw I want at almost the right price so I play one more street...3) I want to actually play enough hands each month to improve my game - so to that end I want to get some sort of Iron Man status on FTP every month this year.4) HoosierAlum said in his well thread that often the person who plays the "standard" hands the best is the one who wins the most money. So I'm going to post at least 5 "standard" Stud hands a week in the strat forums to check up on my play.
