My first CardRunners blog should, I guess, contain a little history.
I warn you now that this could very well become a tl;dr piece of writing so if you can't be bothered with that then feel free to bugger off.
I've been playing poker for about three years but I'd say I've only been really serious about it for the last seven or eight months or so. My online experience has been sporadically running up hundreds from a freeroll win then needing to cash it out owing to real-life monetary needs (being a student blows).
Recently I deposited $50 on PokerStars just to muck around playing NL2 with some friends. That turned into me sitting 1000BBs deep on three tables of NL2 which turned into me taking down a $2 180-seat turbo. So now I have a $250~ bankroll and I've decided to start up playing NL10 seriously.
I often have an impatience problem. I know I can thrash NL10 but it grinds my gears having to grind cents at a time, but I guess that's just me. If I were playing NL1000 I'd be wanting to play NL5000. I just need to get over that - I want to be playing NL50 fully rolled by the time I'm 19 (which is about two months).
I'm actually a better SnG/MTT than cash player I think but I really want to be a great cash player - after all, how you measure the worth of a poker player is not in how many times he can check-raise bluff or his reads but in cold hard cash. I love going deep in an MTT or taking down a SnG for a nice chunk of money but I really want to play high stakes cash someday, raking in the $10,000 pots. Let's say by my 21st?
Peace out
