Hi there,

Just to let you know I haven’t touched my PokerStars since I wrote my first post so you’ll be happy to know I haven’t increased my bankroll yet. Don’t worry though in 2 days I’ll be back at it but for now I’m enjoying the sun and the sand =P.

Have a nice one.

Fixing A Poker Goal

Hello,

I’m new to this and I’ve decided to start creating a blog to keep track of my goals when it comes to poker. After reading how poker pro Chris Ferguson made $10k starting with $0 within 6 months by challenging himself I figured why not challenge myself like that.

Although I’m no poker pro, I am relatively good with cards and like most of you, my favorite game is Texas Hold’em. I’m not looking to take the same challenge Chris took, I’m thinking about doing something a little bit different. I plan on taking part in the WCOOP of 2008 and WSOP of 2009.

I am eventually going to keep you updated with this and although I don’t play as regularly as I should I believe I can possibly make one event in both series and hopefully win. Other than that, I will keep an update of my bankroll so  you can see where I’m at.

Right now, I’m building my bankroll from scratch. Basically I started with $0 like Chris and I’m at $123.39. It didn’t take me too long and I’ll share my tips but that’s for another day.
