Welcome to my new OP all. Guess what? I'm now playing poker again. It's been a long and complicatedly annoying summer, that hasn't gone exactly to plan. I didn't exactly get to travel the world like I'd planned, but more about that later. Things are looking up again as then girlfriend and I have just moved into a new awesome flat and got broadband installed today! This can mean only one thing - GRIND GRIND GRIND GRIND GRIND.

Convineiently I took down first place in a £30.00 freezout last night and won £585. This will do nicely to start my 25NL roll on stars and I have just deposited $575 (23 buyins) to start grinding. I'll be playing 6 max just like old times and putting in a ton of hand sbefore uni starts in september. I'll prolly start out 4 tabling then v6 table when I feel I'm back in the zone where I used to be. Since I'm out of practice I'll be getting flamed on FTR and posting hands to help break apart any bad habits I may have formed through the 4 months I haven't been grinding for.

I'll update soon after I play my first session tomorrow and let you all know how it went. Man it feels good to be back in the grind, it's been way too long and everything's changed. The BC is full of strange names like NuttymcNutt and shit like that and it's all a bit much for me right now. What ever happened to the days of M2M and Illfavor?

Anyways,like I said in the carrot corner 6 months ago, my next Opp (this one) will be the start of my porfessional poker carreer where I will slowlty become self reliant on poker. I still intend this to happen and will need all the help I can get.

Goals:

1. Put in 40-50k hands per month.

2. Reach $1750 and 50NL by the start of November

3. Improve Improve Improve.

All 25NL stars regs look out; I is back!
