Hello fellow 2 + 2er’s,

I’ve been reading PG&C’s for the past year or so and have always wanted to start a thread. I’ve only been playing poker for a couple of years now all because a friend of mine told me he had won $35k on a bad beat bonus. I started out chasing that big score which led to me playing in cash games that I now know were way beyond my skill level and led to me losing quite a bit of money.

I’m 27 years old, work full time 9-5, live in Canada and recently got married to an amazing wife. I love the game of poker and want to play for years to come. I still have a lot to learn and I’m looking forward to getting to know some people better maybe through skype etc. in the poker community. My bankroll is currently at $600 on bovada and I’m going to focus strictly on MTT’s after work (I usually try to squeeze in 2-3...I know not a lot) starting around 6 at night & weekends.

My goals for rest of July + August (Going to school part-time + work in September) so this will be a month long challenge:

1) Win at least one MTT (I’ve never won one and I feel like I’ve been playing really solid poker lately, just variance has been tough). All part of the fun of MTT’S though .

2) Keep track of my buy-ins, ROI, etc. through excel and update on 2+2

3) Stay away from cash games…I just don’t do well with cash (I don’t know why)

4) I have a personal line of credit that is sitting at $7.5k that I would really like to put money on by the end of August.

5) Enjoy the rest of this summer as much as possible.

Thanks for following guys and GL on the grind.
