My goal in poker is to be the best poker player of this time, but I still need to polish things up in my mind. I don't have the peace of mind that a professional should have.

Prove to yourself and others that you can make money in poker, not just invest;)

The main goal is to have a good time and make some money at the same time

My goal is to win a live title. I want a WSOP ring to be honest but i am not fussy.
Luverpoker is a big and solid goal, I hope you can achieve many goals in poker.

My goal is to win the Sunday Millions and become one of the best-known poker players in my country.

And you, what is your objective?
My goal is to earn a steady income. I would like poker to be my full-time profession, but I don't think I will be able to achieve that in the coming years. There is not much free time for the game, work and other matters do not give me the opportunity to develop in this direction quickly enough.

A small amount of supplemental income would be great. Nothing spectacular at all, something like $5 an hour would work. It's way below minimum wage but that doesn't matter.

10 hours a week and it's $2.6k a year.

That means I could take something I enjoyed doing as a hobby and turn into something tangible. I could put it away and treat myself to something every so often. It could pay for a holiday, or a nice PC. It would be very rewarding when I spent the money I'd won.

I'd take great satisfaction from it all, as I'd have competed for it and achieved with my own skills. Of course there's always going to be variance, but knowing you can pretty much generate a little bit money out of thin air whenever you want when you've had a long run of provable results would be nice for confidence too.

So what are we talking here? 4 tabling 25NL online for 5BBs/100 at regular 6 max tables roughly speaking. That would make me very happy with myself.

Yes, it is possible to make a consistent profit and turn it into income, but you need good bankroll management and become a profitable player, starting with cheaper tournaments.

My goal in poker is to stop playing undisciplined and without strategic thinking. I often lose hands that I would win if I played more aggressively, scaring my opponents and making them fold their hands. Likewise, sometimes I play aggressively when I shouldn't and the result is also a defeat.
