i'm the quote "up to 91.68..."

i'd like to say that i've never played online holdem previous to starting his challenge (and i'm only in day 5) although i've played around 50 hands in real life with friends. I took the challenge because i became interested in poker so i came here, read the articles and then i found performance poker and joined because of the gaurantee (if it was your first time playing online wouldn't you like to have that security blanket )

i've read a lot of threads against 19 hands and for it and i've taken it all into consideration. If it wasn't for AOK i would be playing shit hands and probably be a calling station or making rediculous bluffs (aka maniac). I'm only into day 5 and i'm up to $115 now (i was at 91.68 at day 3). There may not be a system to winning but this certainly has helped me not just raising my bankroll but drastically increasing my discipline. I realize that this isnt 100% and i can't rely soley on it but for now it is doing exactly what i think its meant to do (help me learn to play tight, patience, and discipline). It may not help me read the table or the players but i don't really think AOK thinks it can do that to begin with. The system is based off a generalization of how people play at low limits (in my limited experience the majority are lagg calling stations and this system helps to win against them)
