My Poker Career

So some have expressed interest in the story behind this poker talk I do at times

To me it's not much of one but let's go

So about five years ago a lot of things started changing for the better and I was very unaware

Up until that point I stocked groceries on the night shift and made OK money for what it was... I was in a divorce and dating a stripper.... let's just say I stayed broke

Then my Stripper Girlfriend kicked me out and dumped my ass.... I honestly was homeless and did actually live out of a Van.

Around this time I get my first ever factory job as a temp working on the floor. In a few short years I worked myself into a decent high paying job that I actually didn't hate doing.

During that time I rented a room from a older couple and started to play phone games to kill time.. help me stay out of clubs and actually start saving some money... I was just tired of always being broke

Well this is how I got into poker... yep playing play money cash games on my phone and using free videos from YouTube to give myself an education in the game.

A year or so after I had some decent savings and found sites based in Asia areas that took American players but usually you had to use Bitcoin. Yes I actually got into bitcoin around the $500 mark

I played the lowest that was possible that was free roll tournament and five cent and ten cent sit n goes... I also did a dollar buy in at one cent two cent cash games

Slowly I got better over time with painful experience and reading books. I started analysis my best winning and loosing hands to see if I could had done differently... this along with becoming detailed with wins and loses with graphs took me to the next levels.

It's around this time I started realizing this might be an actual career option in my life and if I could figure it's correct usage it would be a game changer.

This is when I no longer game to poker to help kill time and save money but to make it

I started spending a few thousands on selected poker coaches and taking online courses like was getting a degree... I keep buying books as I could to read on the side and I experimented with lots of good a d stupid ideas and recorded the long term out comes.

They say poker is the hardest easy money out there and I believe it... honestly nothing easy about it... in poker you get punished at times for making the correct moves and watch bad players get rewarded for bad choices but this is what keeps them in the game.. it's the luck.. gambling Factor

Poker is about making the correct mathematics choices like a robot a million times then in the long run you realise all you equity.

I thin realized it would take a good deal of money to even be a professional if I was to do it right and not risk ever going broke... lots of legends in the game have been broke more than once due to playing higher games than their bankroll allowed

Once I woke up to money management it changed everything and over time I'm now playing $500 games

If all goes right and I have enough intelligence to believe it will then the next five years should turn me into John Smith cash lol

Not sure if I'll ever go full time as at times poker is a bitch and bad months do happened

It is perfect as a second income

Well hope that has helped with those that was curious has to my Genesis into poker and my progression up until now

As long as the good lord gives me breath the future of the juice man should be fun to watch the progression


I mean I came to this site as a grocery clerk broke as fuck playing Xbox and living with a stripper

Then have turned into a professional with office work and middle stakes poker lol

Maybe in the near future I'll become a plant manager that plays high stakes games

Only time will tell as the lord gives grace
