yo yo, yo yo, it's off to work I go...

Evening troops, I have "officially" taken the step of calling myself a professional poker player, and it has been a tricky learning curve so far! I have been joining the tables first and had to contest with quite a few regs joining me initially making the transition pretty tough, but the more I played I started getting more offers for chops which helped. I now pretty much play exclusively $115's and it has been testing but rewarding...if I can avoid hero call mode I can hope to make a nice amount at this game, so I'm working on that. I think I'll get TournamentManager or some other type of software on my desktop when that's set up to help regulate how I'm doing and work on flaws.

Overall, it's going ok but really swingy...last Sunday was a prime example, where I was 4-tabling the $115s and running like God with the quality of the opposition but kept getting raped by the deck...I have had a few $1k swings which is tough to deal with and am currently a little bit under $3k up since my pro status became facebook official (the benchmark of everything!) which I think is a good start but definitely subject to change for the worse given the nature of the beast!

I have been keeping my volume fairly high and hope to be building a nice base of FPPs to work off at some point for a reasonable return...I might give the 4man 3600FPPs hu shootouts to the Sunday Million a go as I think that would work to my strengths, and to be honest my ROI at the heads ups' has been mediocre but a different class at the 4mans...they are so much softer it's ridiculous.

I am making plans with regs to pair up to crush the 4mans, and hopefully this will guarantee a steady profit whilst I can make other money on the side playing several tables.

Whilst poker is good, life is fairly tough tbh...daytimes are pretty lonely and every fucker is "working", which means I haven't got much to do...I have planned trips to keep myself occupied and have joined a golf club which gives me something to do in the day, but without Louise and friends I'm lost a lot of the time as I like to keep busy. Hopefully I'll work something out on that front!

So, life is fairly dull but the grind is on so I'll keep anybody who is interested posted.
