My passions for Texas Hold ‘em and Photography.
I came across Ice Road Truckers today and watched bits of a few episodes, it made me think of the way my Hold ‘Em game has been going. I hate whiners as much as the next guy, but I have to vent some. I’m actually up on the week, but only about $3 after being [...]
I played my first live holdem in ages this past weekend. It was a friendly $0.05/$0.10 no limit holdem game with most people buying in for $10. We started with 9 people at the table, 3 of which play regularly on PokerStars like me. It requires a lot more patience to play a live game [...]
After being down about $7.00 I rallied and ejected with a $0.50 loss for the night. I know it is a loss, but there is a lot to be positive about here. I lost $43 in three sessions at $10NL, so a $0.50 loss after moving down is like a win. I [...]
After losing a total of $43 in my last two sessions at $10NL, its time to move back down to $5NL. Certainly I’m not proud of this fact, it sure makes one feel like they have a lot of holes in their game. I’m staying positive about things though. This is part [...]
I lost $27 last night, by far the most I’ve lost in a single session to date. Worse yet is that drops my bankroll down to $185, which really blows considering I was relatively steady going from $2.00 to $200+. I lost about $20 on two hands alone, getting stacked on both of [...]
I won about $10 at my first session of $10NL, and last night I lost $0.55 at my second session. Not a big loss but it could have been worse and/or better. Let me explain. I played for about 2 hours, and for most of that 2 hours I was down money. [...]
Last night I played my first session at $10NL after making my bankroll goal of $200 and moving up from $5NL. I ended up winning about $10 bringing my bankroll up to $212.76, nothing to write home about I know, but for my first session it was a nice win nonetheless.
At first I certainly [...]

The title says a lot. I won just about $7 again last night and since my goal has been to have a $200 bankroll before moving to $10NL, the time has officially come. I’m certainly excited but also just a little nervous, mainly because I’m not sure what [...]

Last night was the first time in 8 days I played holdem online at Pokerstars. I won just over $7 bringing my bankroll to $195.68. My goal has been to move up to 10NL when I get to $200, so I’m basically one good session from that, as long [...]
I owe a lot of my poker skills to my brother, he shares a lot of valuable information with me, and we talk often about holdem. So recently when I went through one of my worst online holdem stretches since I started playing online about a year ago, we talked as we always do, and [...]
