I've given in and joined the ranks of the "bloggers". My main reason is to help me keep track of my poker play, and also to hopefully get some input from other players if anyone happens to read this. I've been playing a lot, and doing well, but I don't really keep track of my play or strategies. It's my hope that if I have someplace to put them, and also hopefully some people that would care to read or comment on them, that I'll commit myself to remembering big hands, and will also be more careful keeping track of the results of my sessions. Another contributing factor is my little brother's got a blog (http://amerracuda.blogspot.com - DISCLAIMER -his blog is political in nature and his thoughts in no way reflect my own) , and honestly with summer school getting over, I've got a lot of time on my hands and nothing better to do most of the time.
Here's a quick snapshot of me and what I do. I'm a pre-med student at the University of Missouri. Poker is my favorite activity other than watching football, and the beauty of it is that oftentimes I can do both. I've had lot's of bullshit jobs, and hated all of them, so I got a student loan for a bankroll and decided to attempt to grind out a living. We've got one casino about 20min from my house where I play several times a week . The games they spread are $1/$2NL and $2/$5NL. I started out as a 1/2 player, but recently have moved up to the 2/5 game because the game is a lot looser and the pots are much bigger. I also play in several home games around my hometown with structures anywhere from .25/.50 to $1/$2. Being a student, I don't have a lot of expenses, so I don't have to earn too much to get buy, also when I'm at a poker table I'm NOT at the bar, which helps the bottom line as well.
So that's a quick intro. Hopefully, if anyone reads this, they find it interesting, and eventually informative and helpful as well. I hope you all get hit with the deck.
