      <title>Frustratingly Good (April results and observations about my game)</title>

      <description><![CDATA[     Well, April has been a rather up and down month.  I've accomplished a few things that are positive, and at the same time I'm becoming overly frustrated with my game in a few key areas.  I'll start with the positive and then get to the whining about how I'm not that good later.

     The last couple of months I've been running by bankroll from $1500 to $2200 with small scores here and there.  My usual sessions involved playing mostly $4/180s, a single $24 on Full Tilt, and other $5-$10 tourneys whenever they fit my schedule.  But once I scraped my bankroll up to 2K, I couldn't help but try some $20/180s and the 5r's.  My early experience with the $20/180s was brutal.  I think I went 25-30 only cashing once.  Then a few months ago I got a 5th, and about a month ago I got a 4th.  So with renewed confidence in $20/180s I made another final table to begin April and low and behold I won a freaking tournament.

      <title>Trying Something New, A Lurkers First Blog</title>

      <description><![CDATA[Well, here goes.

First, hello and thank you to everyone already blogging at TwoRags.  Since Bond started hosting his trip reports and strategy series here I've been getting to know the community.  The past few years I've been a heavy lurker of places like this and 2+2 in an attempt to learn how not to be an idiot at a poker table.  I've learn many new concepts and skills just by reading posts and advice others have given the extra effort to give.  So hopefully this will be my transformation from lurker to active entity in the poker community.  

I was welcomed into poker like many people with ESPNs coverage of the WSOP.  Me and my friends did the whole home game thing for a while and finally I jumped on PartyPoker (if I only knew then what I know now---which isn't much by the way).  I played SNGs for a while and then found poker books on limit and donked around in that for a while.  A few books and a few years later I was lurking 2+2 and brought my game up to about break even.
