Today’s blog wont be anything spectacular, nor will it be up until the end of next month when I have time to get back into the live poker circuit here in Glasgow. A few interesting things have happened to me in the past few weeks, I feel I have benefited from it and my game is now coming on leaps and bounds.

Earlier on in the week, I by chance came across a live pro (of online origins) on Skype. I had only found him because I was looking to track him down to question him on a bio for Wise Hand Poker. We had a chat for a while after coming across each other on various forums but never actually speaking. After that, something I never really expected (though awesome) happened. We started to talk about poker and he seemed to enjoy educating me on the game and padding my little knowledge of what I was doing. This was amazing! I had learned more in the past 10 minutes than what I have learned my whole 4 years of playing poker. Since then we have chatted regularly, going over hands that he had played and me asking many questions along the way. I started to post more on two plus to thanks to him and have started to think of the game in much greater depth (Compared to what I used to) whatever I say though, he always makes me look like I know nothing but that will soon change! Maybe soon I can start discussing hands in blogs and making this more of a strategy blog than what I first intended. Don’t worry, if I make It big everyone here will be the first to know!

I’m always up for discussing strategy so if you are interested in such a thing than talking poker when you are not playing (who would do such a thing) I will leave my email at the bottom of this blog and we shall discuss until the wee hours. Maybe I will let you hear my Scottish accent if you are lucky!

Nothing else has really happened to me apart from that and it has been a pretty boring week. I’m still broke, still a student, I have been working most nights, been to two football (soccer) games this week which is an unusual occurrence considering I haven’t even watched the game in months, Still looking for a backer to take a huge chance on me so I can actually become a winning player oh and did I mention I was broke? J

Anyway, not going to advertise myself over a blog like that, I am not that shameless!

Maybe next week I can come back to you with some actual examples of play. Probably not though, let’s hope something else interesting happens to me in the next week. If you are really interested in following what I do every second of every day then follow me on Twitter. My username over there is “DanielReilly” Make sure you make yourself known to me…I love to know who is actually reading these and enjoying them. Makes them worth writing!

Anyway, I better head off and try do some work on another project. Not sure what one it is yet, have loads to choose from!
