My first blog, kinnda new to this and never been one to put words very eloquently so this is a challenge in its self, to write coupled with me being slightly dyslexic so my apologies in advanced if many of these blogs are full of spelling/grammar mistakes. I prob haven’t even noticed them.
Anyways: tiny bit of background ive been playing poker for a few years, recreationally and have drifted (not drifted actually decided) to try and focus mainly on the cash game for the moment and typically having no job at the moment im taking a very cautious approach to it all.
Soo I decided after trying full ring at 10NL unsuccessfully, that id take my $140 starting bankroll and try 6max but first things first no point in even playing 10NL unless I can prove to be winning, so I started very overrolled a month and a half ago at 0.01/0.02 6max, firstly as I say to prove I can even win and because ive prior to this only ever been a 1tabler. So how’s that been going? Played the 1st 5k on 1 then the 2nd 5k on 2, then next on 3 and im now just around 20k hands on 4tablels which is still very exciting to me and im just about getting comfy with. High point was prob around 13.5K hands where I reached $32 but then went on a major downswing the start of this month crashing all the way back down to $13 (gutted) right now tho as of 19K im on my way back up around $20 so a little better, but im wiser for the experience and I think part of it for me was going through a downswing or 2 and being a better player for it!
Im just about ready to move up to 5NL and I think another 20k hands running that at least to give me an idea if im improving and try and improve my initial winrate of 2.60 PTBB/100 which I think suffered alot cause of just starting out with the multi tabling and just generally getting started and trying alot of things that didn’t really work.
Going to a local poker night at a pub I sometimes play at 2night, mainly just for fun and the local live poker scene in Manchester England is something I wanna talk about maybe next time.
