Hi, I'm Denislav, 19 years old from Sofia, Bulgaria. I started playing poker a little more than two years, but seriously I got the game early this year. I love 6-max cash games, so try to develop my game in this format.

Basically I have a blog in Bulgarian community, but I decided to do this here, because I think this community is much larger than ours and I get more advice and opinions, so I can improve my game.

Outside of poker, I love all kinds of sports but mostly football. When I was younger I trained handball, and until two years ago I practiced football. Currently about 4 months, I actively go to the gym. Also I love listening to music - house, trance, hip-hop, pop, dance and sometimes rock.

Currently as you know, are the finals of Euro 2012. My country failed to qualify for this tournament, so I support Germany as the team has eight players who play in my favorite club team - Bayern München.

Over the past two months I had little time to play, and I run bad, but my next goals are:

:diamond:to improve my game

:club:to reach the Mid Stakes

:heart:to become a professional poker player

In the next month I will not have much time to play, so you will not be set to target a number of hands. but by August, would have the short-term goals.

I forgot to say that I play 10NL at Ongame. And you can call me Denny.

My English is very bad, so use google translator to be able to write posts here. I will ask you to excuse me for some mistakes.

Regards,

Thanks for the warm welcome, ImgridN

Today I managed to do only one session that lasted almost 2 hours., graduating a profit 2BI.

SB: $14.10 (141 bb)
Hero (BB): $9.72 (97.2 bb)
MP: $6.55 (65.5 bb)
CO: $18.23 (182.3 bb)
BTN: $10 (100 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BB with K Q
MP folds, CO calls $0.10, 2 folds, Hero raises to $0.50, CO calls $0.40

Flop: ($1.05) Q 4 J (2 players)
Hero bets $0.90, CO raises to $1.80, Hero calls $0.90

Turn: ($4.65) 8 (2 players)
Hero checks, CO bets $4.65, Hero raises to $7.42, CO calls $2.77

River: ($19.49) 4 (2 players)

Results:

Spoiler

$19.49 pot ($1.29 rake)

Final Board: 4 J 7 Q 2

I dont like my c-bet here, because the opponent is a fish and would hardly be refused the hand often enough, but the turn was lucky with this Q.

Otherwise, a good quarter finals get between Germany and Greece. I just hope the Germans to realize most of scoring opportunities against Portugal and Spain, that against such teams are not allowed error.
