The Monkey House

Here it is – long awaited and highly acclaimed – a blog from some nobody on the bottom of the world and his journey to become a better poker player. Hopefully, those who read this will get something out of it, maybe just a laugh at how I butcher a hand that I post or how my degeneracy results in me moving up stakes, losing a good chunk of my bankroll in 1 hand, all in an idiotic attempt to get even and leaving myself barely able to breathe.

I set a lot of goals, some poker related and some in life. More often then not my laziness gets the better of me. Even if the only person who reads this is my girlfriend (thinly veiled brag), at least I will feel accountable to someone besides myself. Perhaps this extra little bit of motivation will help me put in the hands, hours and SNGs that I aim for.

I have been playing poker for a couple of years and if someone were to ask me if I was a winning player I would say yes, but the more I think about it I don’t know. Yes, I have money in my accounts, but I lost track of reloads a long time ago. This blog will mostly be my goals for the month, hands that I find interesting and my results; win or lose, although I know what my preference is. Even if I do get crushed and lose it all, at the very least my typing will improve.
