I've been playing poker since I was 17 I am 30 years old now. A little bit of live experience and some online as well.

Always have struggled with bankroll management but as of lately I am getting somewhat better at it.

I will be playing on Bovada and ACR. Also my friend is staking me every Saturday for live tournaments. Plan on keeping track of my progress here as well as posting in some HH's threads.

Currently I am playing off my rakeback and have about $5 on ACR. I get paid tomorrow so I will be making an actual deposit then.

Love poker it's such a great game. I can post graphs and HH's as I have Hold em' manager.

Thanks for stopping by and viewing my PG&C. I'm not a crusher or anything and am only a casual player. Hoping that will change soon.

Take care and drop a comment. Looking to make some friends on here as well!

Bankroll is at $99. Played some 2NL and won a little bit.

I need to focus more and actually grind. Having a hard time staying motivated. Would rather take naps and chill.

Going to really put in some volume today after work.

Taking a week off of work plenty of time to play. Going to fire up the tables right now.

Do you live with grandma?

Yes. I'm pretty lucky.

Won a couple hundred in 3/6 limit then lost it all.

$150 on Bovada and $60 on ACR. Playing .25/.50 Limit currently. Some 5NL on Bovada as well.

Got pretty lucky taking a shot on Bovada. Bankroll at $448 playing 10NL currently.

Winning a little bit at 10NL. Excited to play this stake. Finally out of 5NL and 2NL.

I've been kind of break even lately. Still playing 10NL but I found myself looking for big limit games to play. I need to stay disciplined and only play the stakes I can afford to. No use running up a bunch of money and then losing it all.

So far so good. Up a couple of buy-ins at 10NL.

Bankroll: $478

Been making a lot of big folds in spots I'd usually call off so that's good I guess.

It's strange playing everyday. I usually play for one day and go broke. I get to see the ups and downs more. Haven't tried playing higher today. No real urge to. I enjoy playing these stakes.

Not sure what I really should be posting in this poker goal and challenges besides my thoughts. No one is reading this anyway. However if you are, please say hi because I'd like to make some more poker friends.

There's a handful of us that play poker that I talk to but only one is really serious about it and we don't discuss hands much. I'm going to look at HH's in the micro-stakes hold em section.

Hope you're crushing and happy studying.

I can say that besides my KK running in to AA today I have been playing pretty well. Seeing a lot of flops and playing solid poker.

When you're running on one buy-in only you tend to play a lot more reckless. Since the buy-in can easily be replaced I'm focusing more on making the best decisions versus how much I can win or lose.

People seem to be folding a lot more than on America's Cardroom. The action seems softer on Bovada/Ignition. I'm actually making money instead of going up against the nuts every time.

I like my avatar reminds me of my grandma. Lol She's a little Japanese lady. I'm a quarter Japanese.

Playing a good amount of poker too. At least a few hours everyday. Before I was struggling with actually wanting to play but since I have a solid bankroll I'm encouraged to play and build it. It's nice not having to stress over the amount I have on the table.

I see why people practice BRM. I think 48 buy-ins is really conservative and if I wanted I could move up to 25NL but I'd rather build here and prove I can beat these stakes.

So far so gooood.

I've noticed not a lot of people have been three betting in these stakes. Usually they have a strong hand when they do. Also I'm not burning money on draws like I use to. I would try to go for runner runner type hands in desperation of winning a pot. That's just pointless. Huge leak there.

I have been playing poker for over ten years or so. I have the experience but not consistently playing like some of you guys. I'm sure there are really great players out there and they might be sitting at my table. I don't dream of going pro or anything but I really want to improve. Love this game.

Had a good hand for stacks. Was dealt 99 on the bb. UTG+1 raised to .35, the button called, and I three bet to 1.25.

UTG+1 called the button folded so it was heads up.

Flop came J 5 6 rainbow.

I bet about 2/3rds pot and he called.

Turn was 7 rainbow giving me a gut shot.

I checked and he shoved for about $5. I insta-called and he flips over 88 for a OESD.

River was 10.

That one felt good.

As I was typing this I got AA and just doubled up against JJ. Running well tonight.

May all your flops be monsters!

Bankroll @ $504.67

I open 22, got re-rasied, call... hit a set... he bets out I raise, he shoves I call.. and bam two outter. Brutal. Lol

Good luck! Quarter Japanese? And the rest?

I'll be streaming for a few hours tonight. Just 10NL

I'm wondering if I should add more tables or just stick with two of them.

I added three and even four tables. I played fine. Sticking with two right now.

Won about $4 yesterday was up two and half buy-ins but ended up losing $17. Overplayed my pocket 10's vs KK for stacks. I wanted to fold pre-flop but continued anyway. Board ran out semi-clean 9-high. Was hoping he had AK/AQ. #Rip

I took a couple more shots. The last ones I'm going to take.

Bankroll @ $1,170

Lost $600 playing 200NL. Back to 10NL I go.
