Sup. So I'm racing savy, his target is $1500, mine is $1750, loser ships winner $25.
BR = $389.87
I have other goals too, such as study more, analyse sessions in more detail, etc. But most of all I want somewhere to keep notes as my poker journey continues. I hope it helps me get better, and I hope it's a story of progression, not stagnation like my last blog.
Last night I had my best session in some time. I was about to go to bed after watching a high stakes reg play (thank you). I enjoyed seeing poker from that perspective, and it gave me renewed confidence as everything seemed to make sense to me and, for the most part, wasn't a million miles from what I was thinking as hands progressed, aside from sizing which is my biggest weakness I think. So I played one more session before bed and after an hour or so was 5BI up thanks to confident poker and a huge dose of rungood.
So today I've woken up feeling motivated. I've been up since 9am (very rare for me), and been measured up for a suit. I'm best man at my friend's wedding in March. I also start a course tomorrow to get myself a fork lift license so I can get myself a fucking job.
2014 already feels so much better than 2013.
Gonna play a session of 10nl zoom, then settle in for a sunday mtt. I'll be noting my investments and prizes from mtts in this thread for my benefit and for savy's, so we can adjust my target to keep our race purely related to ring game profits.
I wish all FTR's the best of luck in their poker journey, and I'm particularly looking forward to seeing savy catch me up in stakes.
