Figured I'd drop a blog, it's my first one on this site, im fairly certain at least. lol, but from the first month of this year I started with a BR of 0$ online, so I decide hey why not see how well I can do, having been playing much online but a lot more live so why not give it a shot eh? From then I decided to not bother with freerolls and get a no-deposit bonus from BRM on Yachting Poker. It started me off with 10 euro to play with, so far from just grinding 2NL and 5NL Hold Em there, ive earned roughly 1500 points and my roll is at 50 euro. A lot of people think I'm a donk because I play aggressive which kinda makes me lol whenever I get a big hand paid, during then I put my 1800 mob-points I had left into the draw which I got lucky a hit a win on one of them and from there I deposited the 50$ onto full tilt on yesterday, over the past 1k hands I've turned my roll into 75$ in mostly 5/10c and 10/20cent 8-9game and some 1/2 cent PLO+Hold Em. Hopefully I continue to do well and clean out these micros soon enough so I can play better games.
*also note I really only started actually playing around start of Febuary*

Nice man you gotta start someware I guess, it's always good to make a blog, i used to do it also, but stopped due to lazyness, I would post alink here but not sure if i'm allowed so i'll play it safe.
but its nice to look at when you've climed the limits and you can look back on how far you've came, grinded from $1 SNGS to 100nl cash games soon making the jump to 200nl keep the faith man and study poker videos religiously

Very nice, i will definately check out your blog
It's a good think that you play aggressive, there is a fine line between an aggressive player and a donk and i think you know about what i'm talking about

Yeah that was an aggressive move in itself. That is, putting your 1800 Mobpoints in the Mobdraw the other week and actually conquering it with the move. That's a gutsy call!

played some HU PLO against a very nice man from Portugal last night on Yachting we had 2 tables going, after about 2 hours I was up around 4BI's, plus I unlocked my first 5 euro bonus with another approx. 5 euro RakeBack
anyways to total it up, im up to around 150$ on Yachting and after a little runbad on Full Tilt in the mixgames I'm sitting around 65$ there, I might play a few hours on Full Tilt today then later I'm going to the casino, some friends and I split on a hotel room and several... I mean several large bottles of whiskey I'll update yall thru-out the night if I dont get alcohol poisoning.

Some great grinding there bud Just make sure you stay away from yachting and fulltilt after you've glugged down some of that whiskey Remember whiskey and bankroll management don't go hand in hand

You are doing good, keep up the nice results. Give us an update, on what happened after the alcohol and the casino session. Did you win anything there? Cause being really drunk in a casino is mostly a bad experience moneywise.

Yet he posts a thread like this, where he clearly states he's got no roll online? Hmmm, something doesn't add up here. I say your full of s**t buddy. Screen shot of your "winnings" or gtfo.

Posted by Jibberish: retribution please call me a liar in this thread, id appriciate it, you can leave after.
Oh wow, that's like what...maybe $300? Sure you should be flashing your mc'paycheque around like that? That's like what...80 hours work flipping burgers? Nice big pile of $10 bills to make it look impressive.
Oh, and also. Your "Bankroll" shows is hardly impressive. $152 online isn't that big of a deal. Hell, I've got $140 invested in my own BAP, and that's not even a 1/5 of my total roll JUST on ft alone. Also got money on PP, Stars and a few other sites
So really. You've failed to convince me that you're a "balla poker player". Hell, the picture you took looks like it was made with a shitty camera. And since most phones come with cameras that take pictures better than that, it just shows how much of a try hard you are.

Either you just stole that picture from that site, or you're a really crappy wanna be rapper. I'm guessing the former

Without getting involved in your argument, do you not think your being very petty? You are 10 years older than him and you are getting on like you are 10 years younger(13)
