My journey begins now!

I've spent the last few days organising myself ready to take the full time plunge into the murky world of heads up NLH.

In those days I've downloaded pretty much every rooms poker software and checked the games from the lowest to the highest levels. I've followed traffic reports throughout the day, checked in on the regs, shifted my bankroll around behind the scenes and updated PT to give me a heads up HUD.

I'm happy to say that now everything is in place and I haven't been this excited about poker in a while. That's not to say that I had lost my enthusiasm, I hadn't, but switching to heads up just feels right. Its hard to say exactly what that feeling is, but its there and I like it! Ha!

Moving onto the actual play, my first goals are simple and small.

1) Play 1000 hands and review
2) Play 2500 hands and review
3) Play 5000 hands and review

Since HU is such an intensive game I feel that I will be able to draw some good conclusions from those three check points. It will help me understand where I am strong and weak and seek out the right material to give me a sure footing or strong foundation in the game.

First up though is day one as a heads up player. As I said I'm pretty excited!

I'm starting with one table at a time so I can really focus on the play and the player. My goal today is to play at least 5 HU matches to the death, mine or theirs and see how I fair.

So without further a dew...well I'm gonna grab some food first...I will begin the life of a NL HU Grinder! Bo!
