Ok everyone this will be my PG&C thread, and every other one, I'm going to be ashamed I fail miserably. Most due to every ones favorite subject...... The Mental Game!!!
A little bit about me... I am a self proclaimed recreational USA poker player with big plans and dreams. I work full time doing landscape construction , have 3 kids that I had way too young, and a loving significant other ( there mother) that supports me with all my dreams. I started playing poker a while ago when I was doing time in jail. It was a way that I learned to "eat" when I was doing time for stupid things because I couldn't make the right decision on how to make a living....nothing super bad.... this insanity lasted most of my adult life.
Back to poker.... I started playing serious last winter.... and when a say serious I mean serious fish.... I didn't know what bankroll management even was... After going busto a few times I started to do some research and look into the game, bought a couple books I couldn't even understand. And continued to lose money.
A few months ago I went to DC and got there free 7 day trial
and went to town... I have been studying there close to 7 hours a day 5 days a week. A serious study routine after working doing construction full time. My family thought I was crazy, I was doing more homework then all me kids put together... and there in middle school JR High and are on the honor roll
Number 1 goal: focus on Mental game
A. I bought a copy of MGOP and also I am really into a dc coach ... a little plug for him---> " Eightfold Path to Poker Enlightment" these guys are awesome and I suggest any serious poker player to check it out!
Everyone's all about Jaren Tendler and I plan to read his book but like I said this guy Tommy Deangleo (sp) is a beast.
B. basically all my mental game needs improvement I'm going to leave it at that
goal 2:
Become master at hand reading ----> not much to say thee
well... that's about it I'm going to be posting hands, goals, graph, and everything else I'm just super beat and I allready played 1k hands up dates to come!!!! gl everyone!!!
