I have just started a new blog at Raising the River.

My aim is to track my progress starting in online poker for the first time, starting with $0 investment (using a $10 no-deposit bonus). I'll talk about the games I play, the strategies I employ, and my progress towards a decent bankroll.

I've been at the task for a week, with good success so far.

Would be happy to receive comments.

My bad: This is probably the wrong place for this thread. Should it be moved to 'general discussion'?

Just read your posts, and look forward to hearing more. When you do decide to switch to NLHE, what sort of bankroll will you have at that point, and what stakes will you be playing?

GL, and a great start to your blog.

Good question. Probably I'll switch to 0.50/1 at $100 bankroll and see how that goes for a bit. Around that time I might play around with some small buy-in ($5 or so) NL.

Thanks!

Gee, thanks.

For the record, my first week is up 600%.

Sounds like you have a good basic understanding for bankroll management, and that you will have a good shot at this.

Most of us are here to help you, so if you have any questions or aren't sure about some things, just post it here. Try posting a couple hands in the ring analysis section and see what people say. Even if you disagree, it helps to think things through.
