First day of the Year of to a flying start

Running good BB/100 of 25.54 over 1,035 hands.

Got more than my fair share of lucky draws and good cards so I presume this will even out on another day.

Anyway I played really loose 40% exactly vpip as I was on a rush and probably instilled some really bad habits in my play.

Anyway I had

7 AA

10 AKo

16 AQo

7 99 which all won

As you can see I really got lucky and below is my graph.

New Year

Well a new year is on us.

2006 has been a great year for me.

I left my full time Technical manager job and started IT contract work.
(more money less tax less work)

I started winning at poker and now have an extra (though small) income.

I quit smoking (Yeah)

Anyway my in laws are round for dinner today and my wife has a cold so probably be a really busy day. My father in law wants to play poker later so I will get the cards out. It is really just flip a coin though who wins as it becomes no foldem holdem and it is heads up but fun all the same and not much money involved.

Having spoken to my neighbours at Christmas I found out a few of them play online so may be able to set up a home game, will keep you posted.


Anyway my new year plans for this blog are as follows.

1. Post weekly results at the weekend
2. Post Monthly results.
3. Try to help other beginners who are still at the lose or break even stage of there poker career.
4. Try to learn of others who are willing to post any helpful suggestions or comments.

My poker plans for the year are to keep making a steady profit at the micro levels I may move up but I like the way they play at my level (badly). Also I am determined to get to a big poker event through a satellite at the moment I am aiming for the GBPT , This may just be a pipe dream but I will keep you all posted.

Let me know what your plans for the New Year are, poker related or not, I would love to hear from my readers.

"SHUFFLE UP AND DEAL"

New Year Results

No I was not sad enough to play at midnight I shut my machine down, however my wife wasnt well so we didnt go out and we watched tele, which meant I played Poker. The neighbour did have some fireworks though.

Still on a high about winning my seat for the final to get a seat at the GBPT next Saturday, keep reading and I will let you know exactly how I get knowcked out of it lol.

Anyway I have had a request to post all my results so I will place a graph here every day I play.

I find after a session I can't be bothered writing too much so here goes my results for the day.
