I have played poker a couple of years now, but just for reacration and fun never trying to improve myself seriously. Now i have quit my job to start studying again. This means i get more time playing poker and i will work at my game. My goal is to reach 10000$ within this year and get my live debut.
It would be nice to get some pointers on my game. I will start at 5 - 20$ sit and gos and tournements at ipoker and Pokerstars. Maybe also at Actionpoker but is still awaiting the bankroll.

I like the ipoker network. They're very generous, they gave me $20 on fathers day lol.
My advice, multitable 4 tables at a time, if its too much, stay at $5 level. Each sng you have to come in with a different mindset, like with turbos you have to be more aggressive so playing 4 sngs that are the same type is easier. Well, for me anyway.
Good Luck.

------------ And some reason sharkscope is not recording a lot of my sngs, oh well. S**t, checked your sharkscope, playing some $1000 sngs! Thats pretty sick.

Congratulations! you seem like agreat tournament player. I worry about you losing it all playing with 66% of your stack. If I were you I would google bankrollmanagement
bankrollmanagment is my biggest problem. too much of an gambler. won a lot on tournements. several over 5000$ a couple of close to 10000$ but donked it off when drunk or playing too high stakes. I should have a manager.

No. You simply should stay at tourneys. Those you seem to play very successfully. Cash game play is very different from tourney play, drunk or not. So do what you do best.
i agree to some extend. I mean, i agree fully.... Will post report on todays tournement play if any are interested. Will play european daily and 15K rebuy and some sit and gos.

Well good luck on your journies. I feel like I could make a living playing holdem. If I could play higher limits. I just dont have the patience to play so many hands.

I think PokerStars can provide a higher bad beat frequency (i saw a few statistics numbers) and have best players than the others Pokerrooms. Just an opinion.
