Hello everyone, the name is Nick. I'm 19 years old have have been playing poker from around the age of 10. I've never played poker seriously to actually make a profit from it like a job. However, that is all gonna change now. I've started playing online poker around a couple of years ago, never pld seriously, was just playing for fun, I still managed to make a few thousands from it somehow, I would totaly ignore bankroll management, for example, I would play in tourneys like the sunday million even though it would be 90 percent of my bankroll, and I was still always able to turn that 40 dollars left into 200+ again to do the same thing again :) I'm going to focus on playing like a true grinder, multi-tabling 10+ games. I would say I am a pretty well rounded player, i've had success in all aspects of the game, Hu, cash games, sngs, you name it, and I am confident I can defeat all different aspects with focus and dedication. My plan now is to put 600 dollars in Pokerstars, grind NL25 SH FR and play a couple of thousand hands on each of them to see which I get better results at. I am a pretty good player(Not trying to sound cocky) and I am confident I should be able to make a few thousand within a couple of months of extreme grinding. I plan on playing in big mtt with my Pokerstars points I earn, so this will be an interesting one. So if anyone would like to see someone crush the lower limit games and move up fast to see if it can be done, you're at the right place.

HAHA! amazing start to my first 2k hands on NL25 SH, and effort to succeed. I lost 200 dollars of my 600 dollar bankroll! I don't have graphs to post yet, since I am getting HEM today, I will be able to do so.

It sucks really bad when you just start, and people keep sucking out on you on the river:( set over set 3 times, Overpair lost on river 4 times, 2 pair lost to higher full pair on river 4 times aswell, went extremly bad...It's just one of those days, I am sure I am gonna come back from it, if I lose a bit more down to 300 dollars, currently at 390, I am gonna move down to NL10 try and build back up. I am currently multi tabling NL25.

Like I said, amazing start. IT'S ON POKER, IT'S ON.

Damn, after another 1k hands, I find myself down another 80 dollars bringing my bankroll to 300. It seems like it's time for NL 10 now. And i'm not trying to be funny here, but i've been ridicilously ul, keep getting out drawn, set over set, top 2 pair when someone else has a set, loads of suckout on the river ect...I hope this will end soon.

I've been judging my play, but I can't see myself doing wrong, I'm going all in 70 percent of the time when I have the best hand, and when I don't I have a monster like a set, so it's unascapable.

LEAVE ME ALONE! Whatever happens boys I gotta give this 100 percent, cause whatever happens it's gonna be a positive result. I am gonna give this 100 percent and if I fail, I can get poker out of my life and focus on studying and whatever. So whatever happens will be a good result for me.Succeed or fail.

For some reason my bank is declining my attempts to buy holdem manager even though I have loads of cash in my account, gna have to go to the bank 2moz to fix it, so no HEM till tomrrow I guess = No hand histories or graphs yet. Will love to show you these amazing downswing graphs.

Alright, pld a couple of thousand hands on NL10 and got some of my money back. BR is now from 300 to 386, started with 600 on NL25, and hit a bad downswing.

I think my br management was terrible tbh for 10 tabling I should of had atleast 50 buy ins not 24, however, I was kind of thinking, if I hit a downswing so I could of easily just moved down to 300 dollars which I have, but if I hit an upswing would of had around 40 bb, so could of went either way. Hopefuly I can speak to my bank so they let me be able to use my card again! Wanna start posting some graphs and hands.

Hmm, interesting, made 200vpp in 1 hour from 10 tabling NL25 shorthanded, that's quite a lot. Damn, not gonna be getting that kind of vpp untill I reach 1k now because that's when I decide I will move up to NL25
