Hey all, going to update bankroll and some hands. Just want to have this as a way to track my progress. Main goal is just to play the best poker possible.
Starting around 11/1 and going to play till 2/1/26. Some background is that I've played professionally for 2 different time spans in the past with good success with an adequate bankroll. Been trying to grind up a roll from under $500 for a couple years on and off but dealt with some stressful life situations to where i couldnt concentrate on solely playing and therefore giving it my best shot.
Anyway, starting with $350 at plo/nl$20 and hope to have 40 buy-ins before moving up in stakes. I think my club only gets regular traffic up to the $100 games so in this 15 month time span that's what I hope to reach.
I'll be 2-tabling at 40 buy-ins reached at the stake I'm playing at and the stakes after. The games are $20/$60/$100 buy-ins. Hoping to play a good amount of hours. I'm thinking at least 40 to 60 hours a week.
Can't wait to get started! I Love poker at 39y.o. been in love with it since 20 y.o.
Thanks for reading and looking foward to updating.

Update - Either I'm going to be backed for $400 or will have a starting roll of $200, not $350.

First day down $45. Should be depositing rest tomorrow. Anywhere from $200/$500 sure.
In biggest hand I flopped a set in a 4 way 3-bet pot. 3twos on 286 flop with spade fd. I raised pot 100 bb's with 25 bb's behind and was called by aaxx no fd. Just the overpaid and when ace hit turn I bet the 25bb's.
I kind of have to slow the game down I feel like and tick to premiums pf. Just for more of an expected out come. I kind of have a leak where I'm to excited to play and play more skeptical hands pf.
So, that's my goal going foward. Just to stick to premiums and more ABC type of play and put pressure on my opponents to open up they're games.
Just as I type I'm debating playing .30/.60 with 10 buy-ins. I feel like that's my best option atm to kind of help me stick to pf premiums and run into more expected outcomes (range wise) on flops.
Cheers.
