to infinity....

o.k the last post i made was on a bad time of my poker carear and i threatenned quiting the game, however, this was never really a likely possibly!!

I have began to play much more online (fulltilt buzzharvey22) and i feel it has improved my game immensly. I think i am starting to understand the betting patterns and poker strategy throughout the game. Around Christmas time i started with 30$ in my account and after a couple of cashes amounting to 250$ in the 1st day i had worked myself a proper bankroll.

After a couple of weeks of playing the odd tourney here and there and just about keeping my bankroll, me and Alex decided on a trip to DTD towards the end of February. So i thought to build up some spends i could play online and try and win all my buy ins. Over the past few weeks i have made a lot of small cashes, in $ 45 man sng's which i think are brilliant value, they are over in 2 hours and have 180$ prizes. I have won 3 of these and had multiple cashes. i have also play 180 man 8$ tourneys with a little bif success too, a few small cashes but nothing major. Over the last 3 weeks i have worked the 250$ i had into 900$ so i have achieved my mission of making my DTD roll!!! woohooo!!!!

On the live front, i have lost a bit of enjoyment with the game. I hate the fact you can play for 5 hours and play nicely but it doesnt really matter because it turns into bingo with everybody being shortstacked. And the fact as Alex says u cant reload into another tourney straight away.

However, i have recently won my first tourney in live poker, only a small one, 20 pound double chance at stanleys on a wednesday night!! won 225 pound and free seat to the 50 pound game!!After 5 weeks in the new stanleys league i am top of the wednesday night league, so i will continue playing on wednesdays to try and get the chance to play for 2k in the league final!!!!

Anyways sorry for being a bit boring lol hopefully i will post a 3k win or something of big signifance soon but for now im happy to keep grinding!!
