Hi my name is Andrew. I like to give myself nicknames. Formerly known as MILFHunter, then just MILF, now known as ✮NƎ⅁ᗡ✮ after I announced I was going pro. That's what it will be for the time being. It has to do with Deck of Degeneracy artwork I fell in love with recently. You'll see me sharking the $2 to $30 buy in Holdem and PLO5 tournaments as well as NL4,10 & 20 FLASH Holdem, NL10 & 20 regular holdem tables or PLO5 cash games. I wanted to make an accountability blog so I could keep a record of my poker related goals and dreams, successes and challenges and anything else in between. It's really good to study away from the tables and find out where I have leaks so I can plug them as well as meet new people. Feel free to chat me up, add me as a friend. I'm down for all that I'm not anti-social. My goal for this month is to once and for all get off social services. I've been on their system for over 4 years because of a mental disability. I would need to make about $600 CAD per month which is like $20 per day playing poker. That's doable for me even at NL10 just to get started. I'm surpassing that right now by a lot. Just in the last 2 days I've made over $300. I need to start somewhere. I've made over $4000 in the last 30 days playing poker. That's $4000 more than I made in the last 6 years playing poker because I quit a while back. I didn't think I had what it takes to stay off tilt. I never lost much but when I did I didn't like the feeling because of how I lost it. I get angry. I give up. I blow all my money. But not anymore. I've studied the game of poker for over 18 years even when I wasn't playing. I always had a knack for studying the game more than playing. Because I was so bad at the game. I didn't realize how good I was and how the mental aspect of poker is just as important as learning what your odds are for winning a hand and what opponent types you can exploit and how. This new GTO theory is fucking me up but I'm slowly learning it from my poker coach, Jonathan Little and his group of professional poker coaches. They helped me shore up my tilt leak and since then have won loads and not just tilted it all off the very next day. I've actually had 3 or 4 winning months in a row now. And since proving to myself that I will not tilt, I decided to go pro. Giving up whatever future was ahead of me and focusing on poker. The game that broke me financially when I was very young..and the game that saved me financially when I was broke. Story goes..I had just tilted off my last $300. I had $20 left from rakeback the morning after. I wanted to play in a poker tournament but it cost $30. I went to the NL 100 FLASH game to make the extra 10 and on my second hand got dealt AKs, made a pair and doubled my money and got into the tournament. It was a 12K Warrior tournament. 2.3k for first place. I joined a few minutes late but I ended up winning the tournament. I couldn't believe my luck. I said to myself this can't be real. There's no way this just happened. I was high for days. But the losing continued. I paid off all of my bills all of my debt and all of the money that I had deposited to play poker I had returned to myself. I also gave some to my family. I also bought myself some stuff. But on my birthday I lost over I think 1.4k playing like an idiot. I was once again left with a chip and a chair. I actually ended up having to deposit again as sick as that is a week after winning the most money I've ever won in my life. Trust me that was not a good feeling. I had $20 left. So I ended up buying into a $10 Hyper Turbo. I ended up winning that. $650 US for first. I had been given new life. Blessed by the grace of God I ran good and played good and had a significant bankroll again. Again it started to slip. This time losing 100...200...my poker account was down to $300 again. I was pissed. I decide to take a shot at NL100. If I win, I really get serious about this mental game shit and start practicing proper BRM. If I lose I just turned into a recreational player who plays once in awhile and withdraws his winnings if there ever are any. That same night I ended up finishing the night with over $800 in my account. The NL100 shot was a success. I made $200 on those tables in about an hour. I then took $20 into a big bounty tournament and ended up 4th place I think? I can't remember but there was another $200 there for the effort. And then some other cash games. About a week after that I ended up finishing second in a $15 hyper turbo. So now my account's at over $1200 again. And now I'm just rolling. Today my account is nearly at $1,600 and I have been practicing proper bankroll management, winning my cash games and cashing in my tournaments big money. I've never felt so confident about my game my entire life and the fact that I can just take a bad beat and be upset about it but ...

Thanks for the post - just wanted to single out that one.
I have no idea about PLO and PLO5 is another level.
But anyone with a remote clue should realise that something like A♣:Q♦:9♠:5♠:4♥: is a) not a good starting hand and b) not strong enough to 3-bet just because AQ in it and c) thank you for going broke with it.
I really enjoyed those (smallstakes) PLO5 promos, good variance but damn are those games easy, even for someone not playing PLO normally.
KKPoker has really stepped up here, every other day a new promo...

That's what I'm saying. I haven't even put in a fraction of study time playing PLO5 as I have holdem yet I'm winning grands. Probably not because I'm good but because the competition is so bad. It's like the old days of NL2 where you would see a lot of players with high VPIP and think nothing of it. They would call off their entire stack with 4th pair quite often and no one would think anything of it. Most hands are at worst a 3 to 2 dog to AAxxx preflop and some are even slight favourites.

Also..the game hasn't been solved like Holdem not even close so those who play are kind of the pioneers who will likely write the books for PLO5 strategy somewhere down the road.
