I lost my initial deposit of 200NOK(=~30$ lol) somewhere in the autumn of 2005. Redeposited during christmas, and this is where I consider my poker career to have started. That was the time when I really started focusing.

Still, it took me five months to realize that I'm not really cut out for SnG's, as I struggled to break even in the $5.50's (!). So in late april/early may I decided to take a month just playing cash games and whoring bonuses, and started out at 10NL with a bankroll of 250$. That switch has been the best thing to happen to my poker career, from then on I'm up ~10k in poker including bonuses and a 2k stars milestone hand win that I've cashed out.

Also started casino whoring in the end of may, I've now got a ~4k casino roll after cashing out 5.5k.

I'm gonna take this chance to say a big "THANK YOU FTR"!
