Introduction

Hey Guys, I'm a 27 year old born in South America. I spent most of my life in my home country until I decided to move to the States to pursue a Career (later on decided to go full time pro). like many I fell in love with this crazy game somewhere around Moneymaker's big win on the Main event.

I'm currently living in South America in my hometown but will make a move next year to Chile with my GF.

Poker History

Like many of you I started playing young, mostly home games and I was a consistent winner (I was playing with a bunch of donks lol) and I started playing online on Absolute poker, as I was still under age I was playing freerolls under my mom's account (well her info) when I was 18 i started playing live cash games on local casinos.
when i move to 'Merica to pursue a career by then i was quite good for my live games and wanted to give it a try on the place where this game was mostly played so i went full time pro. i played from 1-2 to 10-25 mix among 2 years of ups and downs and live tournaments with a win for 17k and a chop on a half million dollar guaranteed event for 60 and change.

now i have never been an online winner and this i why i'm here hehe. any monkey can win playing live but online is a whole different thing.

so i join a Cfp deal to achieve my dream of been a successful online player.

Follow my progress and comment the hands and graphs that i will post here regularly and also you will get to see first person how good this coaches are.

now because i'm on a CfP Deal i will not indicate my current bankroll but will give you a monthly total on hands and profit before rakeback.

Poker Goals

Study the game as much as i can (Videos,Coaching,Hand Review,Twitch)
Become a winner on Low and Mid stakes Levels
cashout as minimum as possible until i reach 50 or 100 NL

Life Goals

Make My Gf as happy as i can
Move to Chile on 2017
Set an awesome grind station
Stay Vegetarian and go Vegan
Work in the gym at least 3-4 times a week.

Well that's it guys wish me luck and be there on the ups and downs we have a long road ahead of us. btw i will start on NL10 @Microgaming but not committed to any specific software

Good luck man!!
I am sure it won't be long you start crushing online as well.

Which country/city would you suggest in South America to go to, that is relatively cheap to live in and safety is not a big issue (and internet for poker is good ) ?

Well I like Chile therefore I'm moving there, Uruguay is also a cool place not much live action thou.

This also depends on the weather that you are looking for because in South America we have different kinds of weathers some places stay Hot 365 days a year other places not.

it's been a couple of weeks since I update this current situation switched to stars and now i'm grinding 5NL hopefully this week I will be in the green numbers there and I can shot take 10NL. I ended the month on Microgaming poorly so I decided to switch to Stars

here is both graphs Microgaming and Stars.... I made some adjustments on stars and this week paid off almost 60$ up on the month
