Thanks daddy.

Introduction : Hi i am a young guy who enjoys playing poker. I love boxing, running and cycling and of course, playing Poker. I have no credit card so my dad puts in money for me :) About one week ago, my dad put in $50 into my poker account and i lost it all within one day. 0 bank roll management, and i did not follow any rules i set for myself. I was reckless and lost it till i had $24. I then put it all - in on a NL100 table, and lost it. I was really sad.

The next day, my dad took pity on me and put in another $30 for me. I was very touched and excited! His a cool dad :) But again, within two days, i lost it all. He told me he would never ever put in money for me again. I agreed. I felt terrible the whole time playing poker. It was with alot of pressure and burden. I felt sorry for my dad. I was a bigheaded man who thought i could make $4500 in one month with 0 experience.

I was too proud.

Now, my father had promised to deposit another $30 ( he wanted to put in $50, i asked for $30 :) For a birthday present. I'm very excited.

This time i will follow proper bankroll management rules and not play games that i am not familiar with ( omaha ).

:spade:Will be playing on Cake Poker
-free $500 depositers freeroll
-100% bonus
-looks promising and i really enjoy the the poker background.

:heart:Bankroll management
-If i lose 20% of my bankroll, immediately cease for the day!
-Never buy in with more than 10% of total bankroll ( $3 )
-Never buy in with more than 5% bankroll in a Sit N Go/TOURNAMENT
-Control a TILT
-Move up when i have more than 20 buy-ins.

:diamond:Goals
-No money goals, it will only cause me pressure and make me sad and tilt
-Aim to improve my game well
-Hope to move up to NL100
-Hope to be a winning player

:club:Progress
Dec 09 - First day, deposited $30 on CakePoker. Ready to roll!

I will be recording all my games ( hopefully ) .

Does anyone know a good program for graphs? ( Cake Poker )

WISH ME LUCK!

I'm assuming you have tried the quiz for $50 free capital? Also, 20BI for SnGs probably isn't enough, try to get 50. Good luck with it.

Was up to $41, then push all in after flop ( AA ).

Lost to K 7 Two pair :(
