Howdy guys! The title pretty much says it all. I must be out of my f****** mind to want to take a shot at these. They are wildly addictive and seem to fall into the category of poker I was looking for - FUN. I'm posting this here because the grind can often get tedious and boring, so hopefully some of ya'll help me out w/ some motivation when I need it. Also wanted to mention that I have been horsing around with these for the past few weeks and will now take them more seriously. I will post my stats for these a bit later.
Just a quick background before I lay out some goals. I am a female from Dallas, TX. I've been playing poker professionally for about 9 years now. I started around the time I graduated from college and have been grinding ever since. I've made a good amount of money at LHE, NLHE 6 max, but the majority of my winnings were from NL HU. I really crushed from around 2007 to the latter part of 2010.
At first I was pretty fearless and would play just about anyone, but then I became bored and as a result I felt burned out. I stopped working on my game because I was learning how to trade futures and would often play a match while I sim traded the market. This was probably not the best idea for improving at either discipline. So the 2nd half of 2010 I started bumhunting. I wouldn't sit vs solid players and as a result the amount of hands I was accusstomed to playing significantly decreased as well as my winnings. As my trading skill increased, my poker skill decreased and then Black Friday came so I decided to quit poker entirely. I took all of 2011 off and learned to trade.
So, that brings me to today. I was able to develop a profitable trading style and I only trade 3 hours a day, so the rest of the time is spent doing whatever. As a result I've once again caught the bug to play some poker. So enough of that and on to some of the goals.
Start off with one tabling so I can get the hand of this again.
Play at least 70 super turbos a day.
Move up to the $100 level for now.
My starting roll was 1k, transferred over by a poker buddy.
Watch a few vids a week until I re-aquaint myself w/ poker.
Review hands after each session and plug some of my leaks.
Take notes while I play (something I've always been lazy at)
Start off at the $15's.
Thanks for reading and here's some eye candy for all you sexy guys reading this. Gonna do this 2+2 style. First off my stats.
