MUTED
I saw this game on ESPN , WSOP Main Event , and it looks like some fun.
5 NOV 13 , Signup with RP and play my first ever hand of Holdem. I see several varieties of games available and choose to specialize in No Limit Holdem Ring Games. Must prevail at each stakes level before moving up.
29 NOV , Have read all four Holdem books at my local library. Played NL Holdem every day since signup. RP bankroll 0 , Rank 176,000. My bankroll will never be 0 again.
23 DEC , Read both of the Holdem books at another library. RP bankroll 40,693 , Rank 15,664.
15 JAN 14 , Feel comfortable enough with this game to not play low stakes any more.
25 FEB , Bought two Holdem books at Amazon.com , bankroll 764K , Rank 1,429. Of 200,000 players I have achieved my first goal of Top 1%. My next goal is to rank in the top 100.

5 JUNE , Playing only 10K/20K or higher. Bankroll 90M , rank 44. Now I feel worthy of playing for the highest stakes. My ultimate goal is to rank in the top 10.
10 JUNE , DISASTER DAYS , lost five days in a row , bankroll 20M , rank 259. I nearly got wiped out as I began playing 100K/200K.

2015 , Practice almost every day , study every holdem website I can find , got a few more great books , play for real at local casinos where I won a tournament with 51 players. My best online tournaments so far are first place in a field of 90 , and second place in a field of 1214.
