Good afternoon 2+2 fans,

I've been playing poker for over 8 years now. And after live play and tilting I took a break from poker for over a year. I decided to stop my study and start a new adventure. I'm in the process of being a policeman! I just got through most of the selection days and only need 2 more days which im pretty confident about of completing.

After that my study starts in May, but the down part is that my salary is going way down and I need some income. So therefore I start playing poker again seriously. I've been studying for over a year now and I'm ready to take on the streets. My goal is to make enough to compensate for my police academy.

The game I'm going to play is the zoom 25nl. This is totally new to me cause the game I played before was mainly SNG / MTT's. I will start with a $750 bankroll and work my way from there. If i drop towards $600 I will drop down to 10nl.

Had my first session today aswell and it went down perfectly.
