Hello World!!

I stumbled across this link when viewing my friend jambons blog and thought what the hey, if I'm gonna try and make it as pro poker player i might as well go the whole way and let everyone that is interested follow my progress.
As the title of my blog suggests i failed to graduate from my chosen University. Despite my academic failings over the last three years however i feel like Uni in general has been an overwhelming success. I've made a lot of great friends, drunk an obscene amount, convinced the odd girl to let me have a drunken fumble and most importantly found out what i want to do, play poker for a living. Over the last year I've spent around 25 hours per week playing online (mainly on party poker), in this time I've been experimenting with a number of games ranging from $10 STT'S to $530 MTT's with some $5/10 NLH thrown in. My game selection is based on my bankroll obviously but in some cases i have played over my head and as is usually the case in these situations it hasn't worked.
Although i have no official results for the last 12 months i have a fairly accurate idea of what i have made from poker: $30,000 net profit. My best moment was winning the Friday special $215 buy in tourney on pp for $10K. My results on party can all be found on: http://www.officialpokerrankings.com/ and as these results suggests I'm certainly one of the top 30 tournament players on the site.
Despite a positive year however the vast majority of my roll has been cashed out and spent on rent, booze and fucking takeaways. I've also been running bad over the last 2 months, not great news when I'm supposed to be turning pro officially on July 1st. For the next month i don't plan on playing much but i will post any decent wins and any tilty cash game sessions which in the end will almost certainly see me fail as a poker player. On a social side i'm off to Newquay on monday with 7 mates from Uni but next up is the Oxford cup next week which i'm really looking forward to. Unfortunatley its a £20 rebuy and I'm a total rebuy junkie!! I hope i can come 4th and make my money back lol.
Bankroll: $5,561 boooooooooooooo!!
