Hey guys,
I am a 20 year old full-time student who is currently studying Computer Science and have about a year left to complete my bachelors. Meanwhile I have been playing poker for about an hour or two a day for the past two years and have made about $3,000 in profits. I had to take out $1,500 for my expenses and I am left with $1,500.

I want to start out at 25nl and mostly focus on improving my game. I will also put many more hours on my game so that I can actually have really strong fundamentals. I will move up to the stakes as quickly as I can as long as I can feel that my poker game is strong enough to compete. I have no pressure of money as my parents are providing me with all the support that I need with my college. I will update this thread daily or as soon as possible if I have a lot of school work.

So, I was able to get a couple hours of play in on 04/15 and yesterday after creating this thread. I played well and ran well overall but games were exceptionally easy. Not a huge sample but I've got a couple of graphs:

Cash:



Managed to play half an hour of Hyper Turbos HUSNG:

4. Don't remember why I checked flop but without a hyper-aggressive fish in CO, seems bad from me to check such a draw heavy board vs two fishes.

I am approaching the end of my 3rd year and have the finals coming up in 2 weeks. Therefore, I am unable to put in a lot of volume. But I want to put in a lot of volume over the 3-month summer break, so stay tuned
