Background

I started playing poker around 2005 when one of my degen mates from the army was playing on William Hill, immediately interested I desposited £10 and obvs lost it but had fun I kept a vage interest in the game while serving! Once I left I moved back home and started to experiment with online poker over the next year, even took down a couple of tournaments on William hill for around £600 each (don’t have a clue how as didnt know the game and swear i thought 5 bet jamming PF with K4s was +EV)

After finding 2+2 in 2008 and reading all the books i could find, i started to play SNGs on stars long story short 12k SNGs later mostly $25 6max showing $7k+ profit (would have been more if I didn’t find the Sunday Million hyper turbos when they first came out and everyone had the now famous Jorg95 in).

SNG Results all Pokerstars (just after 2.5k hands found Hypers quit them after cliff top fall)



Aim

My aim is to now transfer to cash and become a solid winner at each level til find my place in the cash world.

To everyone who has ever gone busto over the years will now use bankroll management alot more as there nothing more painful then the sweet sting of bustoville. I beleive a healthy 40-50 bi's at each level should be strong enough.

I started at NL25 on Party Poker mostly as they have a 100% deposit bonus with a fairly easy clearence for a decent reg, i will play on this site until i bat away a lot of leaks i currently have.

So far i have played just over 20k hands (1 week) and i can tell i have plenty of leaks, I am a member of Deuces Cracked and have decided to get a coach which have first session tomorrow

Graph so far, like i said is ikky, with bonus etc im very much up however like i said i have plenty of leaks




$15-20,000k for this year is very very ambitios i know however very doable with high volume and coaching and might as well have a big goal.

I don’t know why I wrote this blog or if anyone is slightly interested in what I have to say however I gonna keep it updated for my own motivation, i know there are plenty of guy/gals like me so GL everyone.

Thanks

Dont every site have a 100% signup bonus xD

I believe they do however I already have tried most sites over the years, ftp cake 888 betfair etc and party doesn't crash/lag multi tabling like some.
