The Beginning

Ok. The point of this blog is for me to document my poker goals, and keep track of my progress toward meeting them. Lately i've been having a problem staying focused and keeping myself in games that I can beat. I've been straying into random cash games (7-2 tripple draw, limit o8, limit stud!?) and blowing my hold'em profits as fast as I can earn them. In a recent stint of playing cash games i managed to throw away a quarter of my bankroll foolishly in games that i have no hope of winning at because I don't know how to play them... and that's something I decided needs to stop. Sooooooooooo i am inventing this blog to provide a framework for me to keep my goals in mind whenever i'm playing.

Later today i'm going to write about my new playing guidelines that i've been thinking about, including what sites/stakes/hours/# of tables/bankroll requirements etc that i'm going to play with during the next few weeks/months. I plan to update this blog at least twice a week with my progress, as well as any interesting hands or discussion topics that come up along the way.

I'm not a great writer and i tend to ramble, I apologize for that but i'm not twisting anyones arm to read this thing regularly. It's mostly for myself anyway, but hopefully some people out there can get some useful info from it. I hope you enjoy, stay tuned for the next installment.
