Hi, ive been playing poker for about 6months now and only just starting to see vast improvements in my game (thanks to tpe) 😛 Ive been a member here for just over a month now but i never done an intro or posted on the forums before. Anyway, some background info:
I started playing playing small home games with friends using 10p coins and what not. I suppose just like everyone. But i was the only one that really wanted to improve so i took to online. For the first couple months i didnt really play much because i was stupid enough to not realise how to manage my money, mostly playing the DoN super turbo games on 888. Busted on there after min depositing a couple times then took to pokerstars. I started playing the 1.5 6max turbo sng’s and i broke even for a long time which is pretty heartbreaking looking back at it. Eventually i went bust and around the middle of january i decided to deposit $10 on stars and have a mess around. I ended playing about 5 mtt’s and going deep in a 2.2 prog super ko and cashing about $50 and then the next day binking a $5 90man prog super ko for about $140. Ever since then is when i joined TPE and i started using proper bankroll management playing mostly sng’s. I slowly built a roll to about $400 and about a week ago i hit my first mtt final table, well, it was actually two in the same day. I guess its like buses, you wait for one for a long time then two come along at once :D. I shipped a 4.4 8max for $259 and got 4th in a 3.3 9max for $224 so i pretty much doubled my roll. Yesterday i also shipped a 4.5 180 man for $221 so yesterday i finished my session at about $920 for my bankroll which is pretty insane to me. Since 1st of feb ive been grinding pretty much every day whether it be studying or playing for at least 5hours, but i guess im just making this to introduce myself to a new community. Im definitely going to be grinding the micro mtt’s and maybe add in a couple of the lower end of the low stakes mtt’s ($5-$8) here and there aswell as some more 4.5 180 mans as it was pretty enjoyable.

So there you have it, a nice little intro the to TPE community 🙂

If anyone wants to add my skype – jcooperr to talk hands or anything in general id be happy to talk, since we are all here to improve as players and people. sorry if that was a bit rambly 😛
