Introduction:
Hi FTR! I've been learning a lot in the BC since I started playing poker. Like most newer players, I got dragged into this game through the advent of TV poker. I had an interest in poker when I was 17 and I played a lot of play money tables on full tilt, and hoped to one day be able to get my own credit card so I could actually deposit money :P
Beginnings and Future Goals:
I'm 18 now and have my own credit card. But how did I initially get my roll? Pokerstars gave me $5 real money free and with uber careful BRM, I've grinded it to what it is today. I haven't deposited a dime and I don't plan on doing so. My goal is to learn the game well enough to beat 50NL. I'm sure 100NL and 200NL will be my later goals, but one step at a time.
Benchmarks:
1) 2NL: ~11.000 hands
2) 5NL: Tried 6max and failed miserably. Moved back to 5NL Full Ring
3) Took 3rd place in a FTR300 and became rolled for 10NL. Finished up 3k more hands at 5NL and moved up
4) 10NL: Current Limit. 40k hands lifetime as of 1/16/09
5) 25NL: When bankroll hits $500
6) Bankroll hits $1000 4/4/09
What I'm Doing Right Now:
I'm 12 tabling 25NL on pokerstars. Currently I'm very close to getting silver star on Pokerstars, but next month I'll either switch my money out to Full Tilt and clear the deposit bonus or try to get gold star on Pokerstars. I've signed up for stoxpoker.com and have learned quite a bit on that site
Current Bankroll: $940.00
Take a look at my graphs and leave a post if you'd like. I'll try to update when any major sessions or confusing hands take place.
Thanks for looking! And big thanks to the mods (esp bigspenda) for helping me in the beginner's circle.
