As I type the first words of the first entry of my first ever blog, I glance down at the clock on my laptop....1:48 a.m. on a Friday morning. No, I don't work the night shift and I'm not unemployed. I'm just a guy who needs very little sleep to function and enjoys the quiet hours of the late night and early morning.
Why am I posting here? I have decided to start this blog to chronicle my addiction to poker. I plan to post my experiences so that I may track my progress (hopefully upward progress) and perhaps share some learning experiences with others who may stumble across these pages.
I play both live games and online poker on Full Tilt and Poker Stars. I started several years ago on Poker Stars and have had some success (although very small stakes). I have played on Full Tilt for a much shorter period of time, but I really enjoy it. I generally am a player who gets his money in with the best hand, and I have had better luck on Full Tilt avoiding suckouts.
I really enjoy playing live more, but I don't live near a casino so I play online much more. There's just something about the feel of the chips and the felt that can't be replaced with a keyboard and mouse. I get to the casinos about 2 or 3 times a year and make it to local games or tournaments once every couple months. I hope to be able to take my online play to the next level to possibly subsidize my trips to the live games.
Well, the clock now says 2:07 a.m. Even a poker insomniac has to get a little sleep. I'm off to bed.
