Re: What are your goals with poker?
I've always liked to play and compete, so poker suits for me. I basically don't play anything else with my computer anymore, and I've totally lost interest in games that are -EV by nature so poker has replaced other somewhat bad habits in my life.
As a poker player I'm mostly interested in the hourly rate, and if I couldn't get that high enough I would prolly quit. I have a nice job and co-workers are also cool guys, so for me poker is a way to relax and get some extra to spend - it's not gonna be my main income. I only 4table, so at 200NL I'm quite satisfied if I get my hourly rate >= $80. At FPT that something like 6PTBB/100. It's true that 200NL has gotten much more aggressive at FTP, but seems like many TAGs there can't handle that and are playing reraised pots with trash and tilting and stacking easily. Soooo, the games are not that bad.
