Hi all. ok so this is my 3rd attempt at blogging hope it goes better than the other 2 which were both epic fails thanks to me ignoring BRM
Heres a quick bit bout me if you wanna know more just ask, names Carl im 21 and living in a small seaside town in the north of England. Played poker for about 4 years if you have ever been lucky enough to sit on the same table as me im sure i donated to you in the past at some point
Where am i now?
I deposited a small amount of my own money ($50ish) on pokerstars about 3 weeks ago and played about 25k hands of NL2 FR made it upto about $115 and started to speak to a few people about SH i read the poker blueprint all the time still playing FR to try and build a BR but i think reading about how aggressive SH is while playing FR put me off and into freefall dropping to about $70 in just not many hands and decided to switch to SH at the start of last week somewhere inbetween i bought holdem manager,
Heres my first graph, circled is where i started to play short hand NL2 and bout 12.5k hands NL5 SH:
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
also ive had couple of $10 bonus releases that wont show up on the graph and im currently at a BR of $150 also have some goals:
Crush NL5 with sample of 50k hands
With ~30 BI's move to NL10 maybe less than 30 to take shots if im running shit hot
Find decent video series on NLSH
Find players to start a challenge with
About the last goal, im looking for people around the same part of their poker journey as me to start a challenge. Just thought of this idea as i was reading so i dont actually have a challenge in mind yet suggestions welcome.
Okay gotta leave it as that for now ill update tomorrow hopefuly with ideas about a challenge and some pics to make this blog a pretty one.
