Hi everyone new to the forum. I live in Liverpool UK. 22 I used to powerlift was a very sporty person but got injured badly. Started poker 2years ago started off like most a losing player kept losing bankrolls online, started studying and playing live at the local casino,
Tracked the last 6months, I work as a gas fitter Mon/Fri 8:30-5:30 earn 2.5k per month, I play poker Tue/Thur/Fri/sat/sun get in from work and get 3/4 hours sleep then head out. Play for 3hours then get another 3 before work. Roll Is currently £13,000 I had 35k 8 months ago but all of it went into a house mortgage and bills + living come to about 1k per month. I put in about 75-80hours per Month.
buy in for 500 effective stack most of the times about 200.
So the last 6 months goes like Nov £1700, Dec £1450, Jan £585, Feb £1429, mar £685.50, Apr (so far) £1013.50 please correct if wrong but I make out 75hrs x 6 = 450hours, 450 hours x 25(hands/hour) 11,259 earnings £6863 bb's 3431.5 30.5/100,
Travel costs come to £120 per month theres a £3 toll and £50 fuel cost but theres a casino opening 1st of may 5mins away and no toll!
I will try and keep posting as many sessions as I can, long term goals buy as much property as possible climb up in stakes and retire from work aged 35 short term goals I only play cash but take a shot at a ukipt and get this hip of mine fixed! Trying to get hip arthroscopy surgery. Would like people to follow my grind! Sam

    30th July in bb utg limps 5(2-5 blinds) +1 limps button limps sb limps I have AA 3bet in bb £55 folded to sb who tanks. I say how can you have a decision after limping in sb? He says I have a pair he takes the bait and shoves £220 total I snap. I said to the table now watch how bad I run in these situations he will hit a set flop came 853 he got really excited and tabled Pocket 8's. I have Ah 2h in cutoff make it 3x £15 a station calls in bb flop A27 two clubs I know he's a caller of anything so I bet over pot 40 turns a 5h I bet £90 he calls river QC he bets out £75 I say it's a joke and make a terrible call he has flush fair enough if he check raised the flop and it all goes in and I lose more but he called 1.5/1 to hit his 4/1 type of players I'm playing with. Should be crushing the game but not. 3hours -£57
