Hi all,

I started and thread in the beginner section until someone gave me the idea to start a blog so here it goes. A little back round of myself. I'm a big Pearl Jam fan hence the name and I'm new to playing online poker. I play on Pokerstars and deposit $50 mid December 2014. At first my goal was to have $500 by December 31, 2015 and now it's just to learn and play better poker. Although winning money is nice too I've been playing poker with friends for years, I've played free live MMT in the past and won a few which gave me bragging rights with my friends.

I ended last week being over $90 and this week as been an amazing one. I've started playing 2NL holdem to get my bankroll up from $50 - mid $90. For some reason this week I decided to start playing 2NL O8 H/L as it's a game I've played with friends before. Well I'm now over $110. I can't believe some of the fish playing. I can't say how many times I have the nut high & low with the other playier going all in, all I have to do is call and scoop. I don't think this will work in higher levels but I will take what I can get for now.

I have to say FTR has been fantastic so far,. A lot of support from the MODs and good articles to read. Since I've started I think I've already notice a change in my game. I think more of what the other playing is playing with and count the odds much better than before when I was just guessing.

See you on the felt
