Full Tilt - Day 1 |
 |
1 | |
For the limited amount of people who may be interested in following my progress (not to mention for a personal checkpoint), here's a bit of an update.
I'm waiting on Brunson's "Super System," Hansen's "Every Hand Revealed," and Caro's "Book of Poker Tells" to be delivered, but the long weekend is killing me and Amazon says they'll be in this coming Thursday. Damn my impatience!
I bought into a table with fake money on Full Tilt, 5/10 NL Hold'em. (I'm still not too sure of some of the terms that are commonly used.) In about an hour, I turned that 400 into over 4,000. I realize it's fake money and is completely worthless, but I feel I've gained a decent amount of knowledge in terms of what I should be playing and not playing.
Like I said in my previous blog, I'm not playing for real money until I read the books and feel like I have a strong foundation with which I can proceed into the realm of cash games. Today is my only day off (even though I had to run in to work briefly and it's already 4 PM...), so I'll be using it to become more comfortable with NL Hold'em. I might post another blog tonight with an update on the day.

I also apologize for posting my first blog twice; I was at work on my phone and the recent lag on LP had me worried that it wouldn't submit the first time. |

Nice. When you decide you're ready, make a small deposit of like $50 and play the micros for a while to get a feel. Btw, what's your iccup rank? And iccup is back up  |

Yeah, that was my intention. I was playing zerg at C- to B- level depending on the matchup, but I switched to terran at year end of the season and went 19-4 to C-. I'm sticking to terran for a while, add me on this name on iccup if you want to have a game sometime. |

You should check out Deuces Cracked if you're eager to learn while you wait for your books to arrive. I think most players would say the videos there would actually be more helpful to you for micros than those books, but I'm pretty noob so don't take my word for it. |
