No real monatery goals. Just want to keep the mind sharp. Was mixing up my plays sports and poker but have decided I like poker more. No more sports win or lose its on me. The wife has allotted me some savings and will be playing at
least once a week at a casino and try to get in at least 20-25 hrs a week online.
I'll be playing micros online .05/.10 with a $300 bankroll and live 1/2 with a
$6000 bankroll. 30 buy in online 20 buyin in live. Let's see what this old guy can do!
Hope to post some hands and planning that casino trip for Friday!

Is something I wanted to do when we first got married. Luckily she put me on the right path. Now that we retired she letting me do what I wanted to try. Truly blessed to be married to such a great woman.

Quite scary that you had to get permission to do this, almost like you're in prison :P.

I wish you all the best sir

But I guess the meals are better, so it seems worth it.

Gl man with your mission.

May I ask how old you are, in which casinos you wanna go and what´s your poker background?

Lol. You haven't tasted my wife's cooking!! I'll be playing mostly at parx being it's the closest casino to me. A trip to Foxwoods, moeghan sun or Atlantic City also within my range. I just started playing online, and have a little time playing live. Most casino trips was blackjack, craps and roulette. I am 58.

Happy mothers day to all! Was planning on a casino trip friday but wife had other plans. Can't eat today got a procedure going on tomorow. I'm so hungry been drinking a lot of juices, water all day. Spent yesterday with my mom for Mother's Day and wife went to her moms today. Didn't go cause I'm mad grumpy. Played my 1st online tourney a 1k gtd for 3.30. Busted out in 93 didn't make it past end of registration. On to some .05/.10 till wife gets home hope to post some hands and get some help on how I'm playing.
