Hi everyone,
first of all I want to apologize for my English, as I am not a native speaker.
Some background:
I started playing poker years and years ago, but commonly it was my hobby, or even relaxation. As you probably understand all sessions were losing
But I was sure that I was best of the best, just wasn't lucky enough)))
Then I hadn't played poker for like 2 years, and suddenly last year I decided that I want to become a pro in poker
(Saw WSOP 1st place payment)
You probably laughing now, but every pro in the beginning was losing player
So I started to read and watch whatever I can for free, read threads in forums etc. If you'll ask I registered in 2+2 forums just to read, no other communication
Afterwords, I got few poker courses and ranges for small amount of money, that's when I understood that I know nothing about this fascinating game
Next step was online poker coaching, which was great, that is when I start earning something. (forgot to mention I am playing mostly MTT).
Last summer ended for me with about 7,5-8k in winnings, and as not disciplined player I became greedy, and lost something like 1k. Till the end of 2018 I lost about 1,5 but I can blame only myself (biggest leak in my game is my discipline).
Also I got full time job, sometimes play poker at work (will be bad if my boss also in this forum)
My level now in poker, as I understand it is something like 1.5 from 10. A lot work to do...
Goals for 2019:
Now I am posting this thread because wherever I read about poker game, community matters a lot... And here we have biggest and best poker community as I understand.
I will try to gather my discipline by posting everyday my results, thought, hands etc.
Main goal for the year is to finish it in +EV with better understanding of the game, something like 3 or 4 from 10. Every month I will write sub goals to accomplish main goal.
January: Bankroll 100$
In February there will be Series on ACR (I can play only ACR, Betonline for next few month, then welcome PS, 888 and WSOP to PA). First day of MOSS will have 6 MTT in total buy-ins of about $210.
1) Boost Bankroll to $310
2) Discipline:
- MTT entries no more than 1% from BR
- Cash Games 50BI (commonly NL2 till $300 BR)
3) Minimum of 5 hours studying poker per week.
4) Minimum 10 MTT per day
Oh, and I want to ask your help on my trip to poker success. I am full newbie and want to learn as much as I can. Whoever will have opportunity and desire to write something I will really appreciate it...
