By Alex Bannon


Setting poker goals is one of the best ways to guarantee you achieve the level of success you desire with poker. If you are interested in making a lot of money from poker then read this article now.

There is something interesting that happens to a man when he sets his eye on achieving something. It's amazing to think what we could achieve over and beyond poker. But for now we will tackle setting poker goals.

When you say you are going to earn a certain amount, and truly believe it, something happens in the universe. Something will actually come about from your intense thoughts and desire.

Is Setting Poker Goals Really That Important?

Now, I know some of you are saying "As if... I play poker and say I want to win money and I lose!" Well, that's true, and none of us can control what happens with the cards at the table, but what I'm talking about is real goals.

Goals are like signposts, something we aim for, and we drive towards them.

If you have a strategy where you can make a certain amount of money per hour, and you are playing that strategy, and not making as much as you would like, then having the goal there might be just what you need to spur you along to...

- Taking that one more risk
- Making that one more bluff
- Stealing that one more blind
- Pushing forward that little bit more
- Playing for an extra 30 mins

It all adds up to get you the cash you so desire.

Setting poker goals, making goals for how much money you want to make is vitally important to getting the very most out of your poker game. You cannot get the most profit out of your game without a clear cut goal.

So How Do You Go About Setting Poker Goals?

The first and foremost thing you need to realize is that a goal must be within your level of belief to be able to achieve it. To achieve a goal you must believe you can do it. Setting a goal of a million dollars in one week when you aren't even making a dime from poker is an extreme example of aiming out of reach.

The next thing you need to do is make sure that you are very specific and detailed about the outcome or goal that you want. Make sure to include exact dollar amounts and time frames.

Write it down and read it every day. Especially read it anytime you play poker, or study poker, or do any poker related activities because the reminder of the goal will spur you on to push just that little more to get it. That's the real secret to setting poker goals.
