So I am going to try and turn myself around 180 degrees. I have been going nothing but down hill since maybe August? I have to acknowledge that I have run extremely poor since this time to let me know I am not terrible. I'm down maybe 11 buyins in EV and have had way more than my share of coolers. I have yet to get AA all in preflop 100bb eff. stacks since August 5th. I honestly can't remember the last time I stacked anyone. I have had 2 recent coaches with one looking at my DB and just said in awe how bad I was running and how he couldn't really help me with advice on past hands because it didn't matter (1kNL and 2kNL 6max reg). The other (400NL-1kNL) reg say that I grasped concepts much quicker than most 400NL regs he coached which makes me think I do have a good idea on this poker thing.

Anyways, enough of that. I have a new attitude. I have some new weapons in the arsenal. I believe to be a much better player. I'm at 25NL 6max right now with a 2.2kish roll. My ultimate goal is to start winning like I was in the past so I don't have to get a job. This roll = my savings. I plan to calculate and plan a good amount of hands I should aim for each month. Even though I do not have Leatherass' book, I do taking poker more serious and like a business.

I'm on my winter break (5th year senior at VCU) so I should be able to put in a solid month of hands for me. A solid month for me = like 20kish as I seem to be extremely busy with my long distance girlfriend (who has no internet access) and just hanging out with friends. None of these people play poker and only my gf knows I play. She's fully supportive and awesome. On that note, I am traveling to her place for the next few days where it's supposed to snow about a foot. In VA, that's an extreme amount.

I plan on making a better post in a few days with what exactly I want this blog to accomplish but I really would like to post hands, theories, anything in here. I wanted to in my last blog but just felt like it became something I hated (because of my posts...I def. appreciated others' posts). I have a preflop calling theory written on a notebook piece of paper that I hope to type up soonish. For now it only consists of an optimal way of exploiting a 24ish/20ish reg.
