It all starts today!!!

For some of you may know Ive been playing poker for sometimes now. But ive havent really kept a tally or report of how i play. Some days i play good, somes days I play bad. Truthfully some say its just the way the cards turn out but in all honestly its just bad mistakes on my playing the way I do. Just recently Ive decided to play poker to win not to play poker just to play poker. I feel that i know the game pretty well. And that i should be coming out a winner evertime. But the old me still pops back up and the "Super Donk" goes throwing money away and bleed his chips out to all the other players. Yes sometimes I win a huge pot by playing like a donk but most time those chips get spread back out to all the other players that donk their chips away. So now ive decided to get rid of the super donk image and play solid poker.

For me Im lucky to have a friend who can just verbally abuse me for playing like a dumb ass. He know his game and he is growing to be a very very good limit player. Some of you may know him. He goes by the name Santi, Nik Santi the 4/8 superstar. He runs so good that a bad night of poker is only coming up a $100 for 6 hours of playing. He is my poker advisor. He tells me things painfully truthful. I know i have leaps and bounds before i can reach his status of playing but in all honestly I can never play his style. He plays to maximize his profit and I should too but its just the little diffenrence in style of play that I dont think I can ever reach that point. But with the santi givivng me reminders of correct play and very very stupid plays i do. I can slowly stop my old style of play and start being a poker winner.

So with this and just continuly playing poker to improve myself. One day People will stop calling the 4/8 super donk and respect me as a player who know his game. So today I will log in the hands can remember and post my profits or losses while I try to improve myself to the point of being a winning Poker player.
