06 Jan 09 My 2009 New Year’s Poker Resolutions

Every time I make resolutions in other parts of my life for New Year’s, they last about a week, so I was hoping that making some new resolutions for something I take very seriously, like poker, will actually stick.

So here are my top ten poker resolutions for 2009:

1. I will stop buying expensive computer monitors in order to play multiple online poker rooms all at once, all on their own dedicated screen (Yes, I really have been doing this).

2. I will stop chasing draws of 10% or less.

3. No more playing for 8 hours at a time at the Normandie Casino in Southern California just to qualify for their $2.00 All-You-Can-Eat Orange Chicken promotion.

4. I will stop giving poker advice to friends that I refuse to follow myself.

5. I promise to buy no more than 10 new card protectors this year (Okay, maybe 11).

6. I will learn how to actually shuffle cards correctly for my home game instead of using an automatic shuffler.

7. Finish reading at least half of all the poker books I own (Which has to be 20+).

8. Actually take a friend to go play poker instead of just telling him how cool it is and then never mentioning it again.

9. Play tables based on the types of players versus how well I can see the cardroom TV.

10. Write my poker blog before midnight for once in an attempt to actually put a coherent sentence together.

Happy 2009!!
