Monday

Well I just purchased a 21.6" LG LCD widescreen monitor and a new computer chair, I am really happy with the purchases and I feel that they will greatly improve my comfort level while playing poker.
As well I just purchased PokerTracker and poker ace HUD for my desktop computer, I have been using my laptop mainly for poker and I had PokerOffice on it but I feel that the use of PokerTracker instead will benefit me due to it being the standard software in use by CardRunners.
I had to work this weekend and only put in 3k hands, I ended up down 4 buyins, two of which came at NL50 HU against a very aggressive oppenent who flopped two straights within 150 hands and stacked me both times.
I should be getting last month's rakeback into my account soon, so I am going to play another 5k hands of NL50 and then take a shot at NL100. I plan to play 2 tables of 6 max NL100, and 2 tables of 6 max NL50 while I adjust to the change.

First Entry

Hey everyone,

I thought it was about time to start a blog about my poker career and use it to help get feedback about my play. It sounds as though blogging has helped alot of top players on their rise through the levels.

I just recently started playing reguarly again in December. I was a little rusty and had a break even month over 20k hands. So far I have shown an improvement in 2008 and I am currently +$620 over 10k hands at NL50.

I am almost ready to make the jump to NL100 and thought this would be the perfect time to start blogging.

I encourage any constructive criticism of the hands I post and look forward to seeing your comments.
