Belated Update (Week One)

Forgive the delay in reporting my progress in this whole playing for a living lark. All my blogging and blog reading was done while wasting time at work. Now I'm less inclined to be wasting time.

This week has certainly been a rollercoaster. It started with a bang and nothing could go wrong on Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday both started with big losses but I managed to claw my way back out for a small loss on Tuesday and a decent profit on Wednesday. Thursday and Friday went tits up. On Thursday I played like a muppet and today I was simply card dead.

Overall, I broke even for the week, but was saved by some bonuses I'd been clearing. I can cope with breaking even if it's just down to varience, but I made some really bad calls on Thursday, which amounted to little more than tilt.

My A game is really improving but if I dont cut out the odd moment of madness I'm prepetually going to be relying on bonuses and rakeback.

I'm still confident about the venture and I've been much happier this week now I'm not stuck in an office from 9 to 5.

Next week I'll be bringing my A game to the table at every session.

    Just don't turn out like Redpill, that's all the poker advice I've got for you.
    If you find yourself fishing uneaten Oreos from the neighbours' trash, then it's time to reassess your poker goals, ok?
    good luck this week

    Aaah man! Snail Trax has been taken over by some gay paedophile porn writing sicko! This sucks.

    Just when I was getting good at the "cross-grip".
