Wow.  I mean, wow.  I took a beating and a half yesterday.  I lost 60% of my bankroll in one day which tells me something very significant.  I’m either under-rolled (under rolled, underrolled, what is the correct way to write that?) for the stakes I’m trying to play or I’m playing at stakes that are too [...]

Last night about midnight I was excitedly telling my wife about how great everything was going at the poker tables.  I texted my brother about it and was basically bouncing off the walls.  Just a few days ago I had a mere $100 in my Full Tilt account and was trying to bring it up [...]

My FullTilt bankroll at 2:22 pm is $323.85

I’m about to reset my Sharkscope.com stats but I wanted to write them down for posterity’s sake.

So according to Sharkscope I’m down about $736.  I don’t [...]

I had forgotten that you have to have a subscription on sharkscope to reset your stats, so tomorrow I will re-up with them and reset everything.  I have had a good couple of days at the tables on FTP, so even though I still have a small bankroll, it’s gone from “nano” to “micro”.  I [...]

One of the skills that I have been sorely lacking in developing as a poker player is an honest assessment of my play.  When I play well (or at least do well) I feel like shouting from the rooftops and want to talk to everybody about how good things are going.  When I do poorly, I [...]

I’ve been rethinking about starting all this poker revamping on January 1st. Why wait? It seems like an unnecessary conceit to need some line of demarcation like the start of the New Year. I think this weekend I will reset all of my Sharkscope stats and begin the tracking of my stats on CardPlayer.com.

2011 is the year that is going to make or break me as a poker player.  This is the year that I’m going to make a real go at building a bankroll into something that matters.  I’ve been grinding sideways (as my brother puts it) for years now and my results in 2011 will decide [...]

Changed the Wordpress Theme and am going to try to revive the old blog over the next few months. I will be talking mostly about my endeavors to create a name for myself in the poker world, but I have a life outside of poker and there will be personal commentary, too.
