Hi all.. First post on these forums. Would like to say its been a pleasure reading these blogs and posts that people have made.

Ok, my story: Around October sometime, me being the hotshot poker player, I applied for a visa on me birthday excited about the millions I would be winning.. I wasnt far wrong. First $50 deposit I got up to $300... Wow, easy money..
Moved up stakes and lost it all very quickly. Next deposit I got it up to $550! WOW, I am good.. The idiot I am couldnt wait 48 hours to cash out (stupid pokerstars) so ended up losing that..

Then, I ended up being down $450 in a major tilt session. One drunken night I come home, deposit $75. The next day I had $1998 at a high point... A mixture of luck and getting aces at 1000nl ..

anywas, I had to reach $2000, so ended up losing it all bar $650 lmao.. I was soo angry at myself as $2000 is a lot of money for a broke college student. Anyways cut a long story short I found MTT and have now lost ALOT of money playing poker (hoping for that 1 big cash).. im not in any debt, but ive lost ALOT of money.. I admit, i was addicted to the game, as most of you probably are :P but have now learned br management and am determined to win it all back + more

My task : So, my task to get a measly £50 -$72 to be precise up to a grand sum of 20k. I have till NEXT september, so a year and a half. Im going to play everyday, 2 hours a night till the end of my exams and 5-6 hours maybe more when I break up. I know I can do it.. I will do it..I will play 6 max 4-6 tabling

If.. or should i say when :P I make a healthy bankroll, I am going to go travelling and see the world and generally partayy, and then depending on how my life is going Next september I might go to university to study business marketing.. Hopefully I pass my grades for a level !

Couple of questions. What programs do I need as I would like to know how to set up those sexy graphs showing many monies and those programs showing the data of other players.. Also, very nooby, what does (for example) 17/16/15 mean.. Is it agression on the flop, turn and river? and vpip? also what does 25-20, 15-10 mean?

Also, how do I convert hands into the post as I would like to make it clearer for all of you when reading hands ive played wrong etc.


Todays Update I have taken my $72 to $91.40 3 tabling 6nl at Pacific poker in 2 hours.. This was with AA getting cracked by 77 and JJ cracked by A10..

Thanks for reading and will update tomorow..
