I joined pokerstrategy in december 2010 and started to make a steady profit in the early months of 2011 but unfortunately my life took a dramatic turn when I split from my wife and was made homeless thus resulting in my absence from the poker scene for a while . Now that me and my daughter are settled in my new home and my relationship status is somewhat settled I now feel the time is right to start again from the beginning . Not being modest I believe the beginning is a very good place to start so hopefully I will have some good reports to post in the near future and look forward to the journey through the levels of this complex yet intrieging game . All in all I guess I am saying Hi again :-)
Wish you all the best !!
Can you give some info on which limits,sites are you going to play?
Welcome back bangmesilly!
Glad to read everything has settled down for you ![]()
What games/limits are you coming back to then?
Kind regards,
Gary
I am thinking about getting back to basics first and starting with a bankroll of $200 , the site I normally play on is not tracked as I joined before joining PokerStrategy . I will continue to play Party Poker mainly as I like to try and qualify for thier $200k tournament and also thier million $ tournament . I do not use my bankroll for the one qualifier I do every week and treat it like my lottery ticket costing me $15 weekly .
I am keen to get more involved in cash games as I have difficulty to find the time to go through a full tournament on a regular basis even though I have been very successful in the past .
My tracked accounts so far are Cake poker , Unibet poker , Poker 770 and Everest poker but I am also a member of the EUPL and have finnished 2nd , 3rd and 3rd again in the last three leagues that we have had .
I have never played below 25/50 cash games before so I am entering new territory but think it will be good for my game to experience lower limits . Bankroll management also has never been an issue for me before as I somehow managed to win Party Pokers $300k tournament after only playing for 6 months ( beginners luck I am sure ) . Which site to choose I am still not sure but I will be a regular player after I have gone through the paperwork and start putting theory into practice :-)
Hey bangmesilly (i can't write that without giggling like a schoolgirl)
Nice to hear things have settled down somewhat for you and your daughter must have been a tough time that i can't even begin to imagine but hopefully things are now on the up for you
looking forward to hearing how you get on. Have you thought about or have you already set up a blog to track your progress?
I wish you all the luck in the world with your new start both in poker and life

No I havent actually something I can also think about , I do intend keeping track of how I get on as any poker player should . I have no intentions of turning professional as I enjoy my profession as a stonemason (which is where the name originates due to the amount of times I hit my hands) but if I can win a steady amount on a regular basis perhaps I can buy into the $200k and million $ tournaments that I like playing in rather than depending on qualifying . Perhaps poker is more of a fun part time job/hobby and who knows how far I can progress . Either way it will be a fun journey for that I am sure .
