Today marks a big step forward in my poker game. Long story short, (you can read the longer story on my blog if you want, lol). I have tried to do well at poker most of this year. It hasn't worked out due to bad discipline at the table. I did a weeks work for someone recently on and off and he ended up changing terms halfway through and generally messed me about, it was a small bit of work but opened my eyes to how good it is to be working for yourself, or even better pursuing your ambitions etc instead of working and letting your energies go into something your heart isnt it.
So I decided to really make a go of poker again. I just entered a stake/profit share deal with a friend and he's going to coach me for free in return for a split of my profits. For a 6 month period.
One of my inspirations for a while has been Han's the Great he achieved insane results in 9 months ($50 to $100k) grinding cash.
Sure he is Hans the Great. and probabally one of the best grinders in the world, but it shows what can be done and is an inspiration too. Today (now, as I'm about to play my first session!) marks the first day of my renewed attempt to really get somewhere with this game.
I'm going to play cash for 8 hours a day starting at 5nl and take 1 day off per week, and will update in my blog on RH to let you know how it's going. I'm also going to be working on my mental game every day... because... The mind is where it's at. Anyway enough talk...
Have a great weekend!
