Hello all 2+2 readers! This is my first post and I am currently on a mission to build up a substantial enough bankroll for some small to mid stakes action! This isn't going to be like the other wannabe Chris Ferguson/Daniel Negreanu because I WILL ACHIEVE IT! Why you ask?
#1: I have total and utter belief in myself and my poker skills.
I know thats not enough because what poker player doesn't otherwise why is he playing?
#2: I have been to the top and IT FEELS GOOD!
As I was moving up I had a bankroll of $25k at one point in my life but lost it due to lack of bankroll management. Which leads me to…
#3: I will exercise a very methodical bankroll management plan.
That means what? Yup you already know it: 20-25 BI for NL cash games. Mostly 6-max. 50 BI for SNGs. And 100 BI for MTT. I will mostly be playing 6-max NLHE cash games.
#4: I have time.
Apart from my job, which takes about 30 hours of my time a week, I can play poker whenever I want! And I exercise regularly so stamina is not a problem.
You guys can already do away with all the naysayers and Buzz Killingtons because I can simply ignore you! Much appreciated, however, will be insightful advice over the situations that will present themselves over the course of this thread. I will be posting interesting hands, graphs, and bankroll updates daily!
Wish me luck! And good luck too all!
P.S. Find me on Merge as Timbochamp002 and say hello!
