Hi guys,

I have been lurking for ages on here. Time to pick up the glove and go at it myself!

To throw in a pretty standard introduction. I am 29 years old, been playing poker since probably '06 or '07. Been pretty succesfull during my years as a student. Had some vacations and a lot of beer from my winnings back then . But never took it really serious and just enjoyed the ride. What if...?!

Since we can not answer that question I thought it was time for me to take it serious for once. I have always been an absolute bankroll nit, not a bad thing for a MTT and SNG player if you ask me. But it has been hard for me to focus on one/two main games. Been playing PLO, Mixed games, Limit etc. on the side just because I think they are really fun to play. This has to stop for now!

I am going to start this journey with $280

Focus when BR between $100,- and $500,-

$1,- 180 non turbo
$1,10 - $3,30 MTT (excluding $3,30 below $350,-)
$2,50 180 turbo (when playing time is limited)

At the moment I have a fulltime job as a Key Account manager. With the traveling to costumers and all, this takes up a lot of my time. Which is quite logical since it is my main source of income. Besides that I live together with my wife to be and there is a dog incoming . I play football and cycle. The weather over here is becoming pretty dreadful so cycling will be inside on my Tacx and Zwift. Making some volume will be a big challenge for me.

I will be playing after work and in weekends mostly. I play 6-8 tables at once. I play on a Macbook, so for now I am not wanting to adjust the number of tables. ATM I do not see this as a journey to become pro or even semi-pro, so $/hour is not that important for me now.

Goals:
  • Playing my A-game
  • Stop playing Limit, PLO, Mixed just for fun
  • Make as much volume as possible (not able to put an amount to this for now)
  • BR $1000,- + before october 31st

I am going to try to use this thread for hand analysis as well, but since I don't use HM/PT I am going to copy-paste hands during play. Not sure how this is going to work out, but we will see.

Thread goals:
  • Short update after each session
  • Weekly updates including BR, volume
  • Maybe some updates about cycling and Zwift

My first session will be upcoming saturday. My girlfriend has a girls weekend, so I am going to put in as much volume as possible upcoming weekend. On sunday I will be having a football match, but will defintely play after that, in combination with watching Formula 1 (Max for the win!).

For now I would like to thank you all for letting me be a part of this great community! Good luck at the tables!
