Played Poker before Chris won the WSOP in 2003, gave Doyle some Chips at the table 😂and many more Stories.

And then life happened

Hello Harmar96

Welcome on the PokerStrategy forum :welcome:

I have moved your thread to our introduction board, because it doesn't look like a blog.

You can use 1 or more of our free money offers on poker rooms you don’t have an account yet. If it you already have signed in for a room you need to read the instructions well and it can take up to 2 business days before you get the free money.

What kind of games your normal play SNG’s, tournaments, cash games and/or other format than No limit hold’em? If I know this I can help you better. If you haven't started yet I would recommend reading our Poker basics articles first.

Further I wish you a pleasant stay on our forum and if you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask them.

Best regards,
SDK1987

Hi Folks,

canˋt believe it…… 4 months have passed since my last visit.

Glad, that i donˋt have to create a title for my blog… it is just the nameless blog.

Why blogging? Well, I never did it before and I guess it will give me a kind of structure which I can use to control myself.

I will write a lot more later on….. now just the numbers :
Startbankroll 400 $ on PokerStars, will play NL 25 and depending to the success there hopefully satellites for my target tournaments

First of all I want to say thx to SDK for the friendly words. I really appreciate.

I am not a native english speaker, but now living as an expat in Bulgaria, i guess itˋs a good idea to write in english…

Playing cards all my life. As a kid for pennys with my dad and got in contact with Poker in the late 90s.
Instead of donating money to the church, a former collegue convinced me to give him every month a piece of my paycheck. Lucky me, there was another guy who thought, it would be a good idea to offset my losses …..
The circle of life and money worked already in the last millenium.

Although my maingame has been stud in these times, the first time i really got in contact with online-holdem was end of 2002. As, i think almost for everyone , FL was the 1st Choice… and than came Chris in 2003

… to be continued….

Well, normally you could find me in the past, a glas filled with wine in my hand, in a casino somewhere in europe. Played a few live tournaments, but always went mad there. I always just wanted to scratch my eyes after 4 hours because it was so boring…… Lucky me, I usually met some guys with the same problems so we played 100€ sngs for the next bottle whisky in the lobby……..but never been a pro….

I learned Pot Limit Omaha by paying Devilfish, god rest his soul, so many times but NLH was always my game….
Top top was enough to make a shot up to NL5k ……… and then, as written before, live happened - long story short : cancer is a bitch
But nowadays evrything is fine and more than 15 years passed by.

Back to Poker ♥️
I feel that time for retirement has come.
Therefore i will start with NLH again. I can start whenever I want and when my concentration goes away I stop.
Funnywise nowadays im also interested in tournaments. But cant Play for pennies and i am not willing to invest a serious amount of money.
So I decided to play Nl25 and invest the winnings in satellites for Knockout tourneys with buyins between 50 and 200 Bucks.
Why?…
Of course because I can……..
and seriously
I have a plan…..
Studied many vids with and from Nic Walsh, tried some spins up to the 100ˋs, saw nothing that scared me really but he was wright by saying :
at least u need 2000 or more spins to know that u beat them
Guess i had some guys or Girls from pokerstrategy at the tables like Studentishe at the 50ˋs
But spins are more hard work than fun for me…

Cashgame is fine- although i loose my concentration after 5 hours. Then I start being a part of donation-nation…..
Because of the fact that i donˋt want to invest 4 or 5 digit bankroll for my restart…. I just put the win of my last live cashgame in my account and started with 400$
Today was the first day, blinked 2 tournaments via satellite, not itm but 75$ bounty and finished the day with a new bankroll of 567,68$
