Hey guys,

Well I have an ongoing blog, 2013: Make or Break. I think I will keep that one going, and have it be more focused about live play.

As of this weekend I made my return to online poker after about a crazy 2 year hiatus. I say crazy cause I got married, got a new house and had a baby in that time and given everything that was going on, it didn't leave too much time for online grind. On top of that, live grind was going so well that it didn't really make that much sense to keep doing the tough pokerstars grind.

That being said, It's been tough to get out to the casino since the little guy was born. The nice weather in the summer makes it even more tough, and weekends are the time I want to spend with the little guy, so taking a fully day for live grind is tough (esp in the nicer months).

After hearing some good things about Bodog, I've decided to give it a try. I've deposited $1500 CAD (~around 1200-1300 USD).

Few facts about Bodog for those that don't know:
1. Tables are anonymous (no names - just numbers). I think over time this will re-fuel my desire to play GTO.
2. Max 4 tables. After always grinding 8-11 stars tables, I think this will be good for my focus.
3. There are HUD's, but obv these only show stats for current sessions (small sample sizes).

Short term goals:
1. Play 100nl up to $3k.
2. Play 200nl up to $6-8k.
3. Start mixing in a table of 2/4 at $6-8k by end of the year.
4. Clear the $1k deposit bonus within 3 months.
5. Play without a HUD for a month, and re-assess if I should continue doing so or not. I've never played without a HUD so this is a big change, esp on anonym tables.
6. Play about 5-10 hours a week, when baby is napping/sleeping.

Sooo here we go!
