Hey guys,

This will be my first post. And I plan on continuously be blogging on this site. I don't necessarily plan on updating too often, I think once a week should suffice.

I was a recreational player to begin. Just spewing a lot of money, I think that in total I've lost well over 400$ in a period of around a year, but now I want to get serious and actually start winning. I no longer believe this game is about luck but that it is possible to consistently be a winner. I guess that's my goal... To improve my game to the point where I can consistently be a winner at stakes where the money to be won actually matters.

So right now I'm playing at party poker playing 0.02/0.04 NL on Partypoker. I just deposited 50 euros which is around 75$... My cashier is in Euros but the tables on the site play with dollars but i'll be moving up/down the stakes according to euros. Here's my BR management plan.

150 euros = 10 NL
500 euros = 25 NL
1250 euros = 50 NL
3000 euros = 100 NL (please note that 3000 euros is actually equivalent to 4000 dollars)

After this I'll see where it goes. But that's very longterm. Right now my goals are on my game.

1. Post at least one hand review per week on this forum
2. Whilst at the tables make sure to be fully focussed and in my A game
3. Keep self control, learn to control tilt
4. Realize that poker is not about any single hand, or session but rather about the long term
5. Make sure to be making as many correct decisions as possible

So with that... I'll get started on my OP with 50 euros!!!!
