Poker Update....

So i've been playing at BooyaPoker where i have like $40 bucks not a cent of which i deposited (won it all).... and have played 9 headsup...SNG's from $3 to $10 and won 7 of them...that would mean that i would have built up my bankroll a bit..but i pisssed away what i won at 9 man Sngs' at the $5 and $10 level, the majority of which i went out on the bubble. Am still cooling off from my crappy play and poor bankroll management at Full Tilt...and am going to wait a while before i deposit any more money. So thats about it...CU

Here's a talk by Jim Rogers, co- founder of the Quantum Fund with George Soros. After chalking up returns in excess of 3000% at the fund, Rogers decided to retire. He also founded to Rogers International Commodity Index and wrote the book, "Hot Commodities: How Anyone Can Invest Profitably in the World's Best Market, Hot Commodities: How Anyone Can Invest Profitably in the World's Best Market" Hot Commodities: How Anyone Can Invest Profitably in the World's Best Market." A synopsis of the lecture includes Rogers extolling the benefits of investing in commodities due to the boom in the economies of China and India.

Needless to say, i like and admire the guy and pay a lot of attention to him.

In need of a Poker Mentor

So...it finally happened...i ran through my initial $75 deposit at full tilt...it lasted around 6 months...and at one point i was at $240 but things just did not work out. I could be because i was playing at way higher limits than my bankroll allowed for, but i thought i was reading and doing quite well at the .50-1 level. So the main reason for this entry is to inspire some budding online poker professional to take me on as a pupil. I have been playing for 6 months...now....and learn very quickly. i only recently switched to cash games..sicne i was a $1-5 sng player before that and was a breakeevn player there...and very recently have been crushing the $2 sng with 9 players. i do not know how many people read this blog...probably not very many..but here's hoping that one of you...who do..will take me under thier wing.
