About me

Hi guys. My name is Peter and I am 30 years old. I live in Greece. 6 years ago I stopped working because of health problems. This set me back a lot in my life. After a few months of unemployment I sold my car because I couldn't afford it's expenses. Going out and having fun stopped because of economic reasons and health reasons and as expected most of my friends got distant with me. Things here in my country are bad. So it is almost sure that for the next few years I can't get a decent job. In all these years of misery 3 good things happened to me.
I met my fiance, I understood that the only person that you can rely on is your self and I learned about Poker. I started playing Poker 3 years ago, SNG's on Micros. The first 6 months I was losing money. But I am not one of the people that believe that Poker is about luck and such. So I started bying books, watching training videos and discussing things at Forums like this one.
The results were rapid and I started to have a positive ROI by playing normal bubble play and understanding about ICM that a lot of people in these stakes can't understand what it means.
As time passed I understood that SNG's were a shallow game for me. When the blinds go up the game becomes push-fold and there aren't possibilities for manuevers post flop. Me I liked the deep game so I started playing Cash game the last few months. So in the beginning I couldn't beat it. But as I was training I noticed that the game is soft and someone can beat it if he has the patience to learn to do the right moves.
Right now I live with my parents, unemployed, having nothing that is mine, just a few dollars on Pokerstars. This is my whole fortune. All these may seem to you like I am a crybaby but things aren't like that. I am a fighter and the battle begins ...
