      THE BEGINNING



      NAME:Brett Parker
      D.O.B:31/12/1990
      COUNTRY:New Zealand
      NICKNAME::diamond: BLUEVILLAIN:diamond:
      PLATFORM:PokerStars,Bet365,InterPoker
      GAMES:NLHE SnG's,MTT's,FREEROLL's,
      LIMITS:$1.20-$3.40



      Whats up I just started my own blog to track my progress and tell a little about what I learn and experience through my poker "Career"


      It all started about 2 months ago.At first I didnt pay much attention to the game until my brother asked me if I wanted to play online(just play money)so I said yeah why not.I played for about an hour and I started to get the hang of it.(I thought so at the time anyway)So then he showed me the freeroll tourneys at pokerstars,Played a couple of tourneys and had no luck,Third tourney qualified for a spot in the weekly $1000 Freeroll.Anyway long story short finished the tourney in a place not worth mentioning,Stopped playing for a little while and that was it for the moment.

      A little while later I was watching a WSOP replay on youtube and it showed me that there was actually a bit of logic in the game of poker.And watching Negreanu get beaten with a made hand(bluff) showed me that you do need a bit of skill to be a successful poker player.
      So i googled "best poker strategy" first thing that popped up was poker listings and underneath something caught my eye,the word "FREE".
      Free starting capital of $100+$50!!!NO WAY!!!FREE MONEY!!!
      Ofcourse I had to see for myself and it paid off.Now I study the articles everyday and now just waiting on my cap so I can start grinding. :s_cool:

      Hey Brett

      Nice to see another Kiwi on the boards. :s_cool:

      It sounds like you've got the basics sorted out with your goals... just make sure you observe proper BRM and you're a good shot to get established.

      Best of luck!

      Feel free to share some advice whenever you can,thats if you notice something wrong.I think I should concentrate on what Im doing right rather than what Im doing wrong.I also put bankroll management as another goal of mine so thanks for the tip,much appreciated

      say fish and chips!

      haha

      good luck with it all, and if you have a bad run dont get disheartened stick to good BRM and it wont hurt you as much.

      i recommend investing some money in a HUD program like poker tracker or holdem manager once you have a little bit of profit. very +EV :)

      Got your starting capital yet?

      What portal did you choose?

      And please don't play freerolls.
