SinatrasStyle: The next 4 hands....a work of...
My night had started of quick and perfectly might I add, because in just the one hand I knew I’d be pegged as “lucky” as if there is such a thing. Hell, more often than not she’s a mad bookie who’s looking for their payment or your fingers. Being know as “Mr. Lucky” has its advantages, I knew that later on I would be able to pull off bluffs when needed to...
SinatrasStyle: A work of fiction or non
It’s 10:30 at night, my glass of glenfarclas is warm in my hand and the cards are hot. I’ve been at the table for just under an hour and already my small $100 buy in has turned to $500 give or take the the tips to the dealer. Now…here’s how I got here.

Turkey's Gone Wild
Ah, After a wonderful weekend it’s time for me to step outside and smoke a CAO cigar.
But first I’ll tell you a little about my weekend. My sister has a celebration of friends every year on the Saturday following Thanksgiving. It’s called Turkey’s Gone Wild and this marks the 4th year and it was a blast. GREAT food with pulled bar-b-que, a cajun roasted turkey, a smoked...
Tapping the Glass
Hey alright, I found a fellow poker player who has already done something similar w/his bankroll on Full Tilt. He’s on twitter as TappingTheGlass and is worth a follow.
I’ll have more posts coming on Friday and I’ll have scheduled listings of my session times so you can follow/watch my progress. I’ll also post my screen name on Friday.
Looking forward to all of this, now...
How I came to Tumblr
For the record I never did mention what actually brought me to Tumblr.
It was Gary V and his book Crush It!
I work in the restaurant business as a waiter M-TH and bartender Fri and Sat. So about a year ago I see a web post on MSN titled “Top 10 best websites” and Winelibrary.tv was one of them, well It was a perfect website for me and the company I work for b/c we’re upscale...
Ground Rules
I’ve read the Chris Ferguson experiment and I think it’s a good start but I’m going to include a few other rules as well. They are as follows: (this may get lengthy)
Always Play to win never to just play
Review each session afterwords and 30mins for the review using Hold’em manager
Never gamble, no black jack, no casino, no heads up play immediately after a loss.

The Plan
Ok so now here’s the plan.
This Friday November 13th. (okay didn’t see that the day I want to start this is on Friday the 13th…awesome)
I will deposit $50 on Absolute Poker, and will catalog my progress via Hold’em Manager for all to see. I want to see if solid play and good bankroll management will build my bankroll and if it can be done.
I will start at $50 and once...
Intro to the plan

I’ve been playing poker for about 4 years via local cash games, local tourney’s and ofcourse online games. A co-worker recently quoted Phil Ivey as having said something like ” If you’ve been playing poker for 4 years and...
