Nothing really special, at least for now... Just a guy starting at NL2 Zoom trying to work his way up the stakes.
Short poker history:
I've first encountered Hold'em 6 years ago when the TV-coverage of WPT first appeared in my country (Croatia), but I never really played it seriously, just a bit of Zynga (I was under 18 back then) and a few games with friends.
A few weeks ago, I decided to reanimate my interest in the game. I did some preparation (books, videos, etc.) and deposited $50. I first encountered Zoom almost immediately and started to play NL2 and NL5 without a lot of preparation (NOT a good idea) – I ended up being breakeven after ~5k hands (rose to $80 then dropped back to $50). Then I went to NL10 and randomly spewed another $5. This was a reset-button time.
It's showtime
I decided to do some real preparation (microstakes/zoom specialised sources like videos and various articles) and two days ago I started to grind with a little more understanding of what I'm actually doing.
So, I'm playing 6-max NL2 Zoom, I play 4 tables at a time.
Graph for last 48 hours:
Stats for the same period:
Goals (short-term):
[ ] reach $125 and move up to NL5
[ ] crush both NL2 and NL5
Goals (long-term):
[ ] move up to at least NL25 by the end of 2015
[ ] DO NOT GOD DAMN TILT. EVER. SERIOUSLY.
I'll try to update the thread semi-regularly. Also, my top1 priority is college (next academic year is starting at the end of September) so when that starts, and especially when exams start to roll, my volume should drop drastically.
Starting BR:
$45
Current BR:
$87
Any advice (stats-wise, BRM wise, poker-in-general-wise) is more than welcome.
