Update and staking deal!!

Well its been a while since I've updated this! As of yesterday I am in fact a staked poker player. I am now playing 6max hyper turbos on pokerstars currently at the 7 dollar level (having beaten the 3.50 level for 3k games) and recieve both playing money, regular coaching and regular strategy discussion with my friends and backers at pokerhaven.
(How I felt hearing the news I'd passed my trial month with pokerhaven)
 
With uni, poker and gym I'm now living an incredibly hectic lifestyle and from now till May of 2014 I'm looking at 6am-10pm days 7 days a week. Although this might sound a little excessive I welcome the challenge and hope my new poker ventures will be very profitable for both me and my backers. Im really enjoying the studying side of hypers and I feel I've already come a long way since the start of my trial month (6th sept). Study is extremely maths based and suprisingly to me most of my money is to come from t20 and t30 spots. Contrary to what some people may believe about hypers it is much more than just a push fold game. The 7 dollar games have been a suprising jump in difficulty but I'm plugging leaks and finding new +EV spots every day so both me and my backers hope to have me up to the 15s by next month and maybe even take a shot at supernova before the year is out (8k games from November, wish me luck).
 
Anyway, just a short update and now my life pretty much revolves around work (uni/poker) I might as well keep on top of updating this blog every week or two with graphs, interesting reads, interesting hands and any other general life chat. Cheers and watch this space!!
