Chewy in the cage... 4/5/08
Greetings Leggo members, I'll be in the cage for a week. I started playing poker about 2 years ago and got serious about a year and a half ago, unfortunately right around the time of UGIEA and Bill Frist and all that crap. In a way though this was good as it gave me motivation to grind because this made it clear that online poker wouldn't be around forever. I played over 200k hands from October of 07 through the beginning of January 08. I made myself enough of a roll in this time to feel comfortable playing 2/4 w/ shots at 3/6. At the end of December following my biggest heater ever, I encountered my biggest downswing ever, and after getting unstuck in January I decided to dabble in tournaments, which ended up being more of a transition than anything else.
After failing miserably at running good when it mattered, I finally had a 40k two day stretch in August while I was at turning stone casino playing online poker lol. Then I encountered another sweet downswing to the tune of 35k which was remedied by binking a score for 107k in November 08 in the FTOPS 1k event. Since then I've become smarter with my money management as the 35k downswing scared some sense into me. Now I play tournaments and 5/10 for the most part.
I expect this cage to last around 7 days. I'll be checking it a lot and as you guys know I'm pretty chill/lax/etc so I'll answer pretty much anything as long as it's not too personal. Just so everyone is on the same page, I do enjoy long walks on the beach and sunsets.
Let us begin!!
