One Year Ago Today, I...
-Was playing 30+3 SNGs
-Had never played above 1/2 limit online
-Used my limited poker earnings for fun


Since then, I have...
-Become a dad (baby boy in January)
-Switched to 1/2 6-max, then 2/4 full, and now 5/10 6-max (since May)
-Grown a bankroll from 1500 in January to a little less than I need for a full jump to 10/20 6-max
-Learned a lot about adjusting my decisions based on the tendencies of my opponents
-Learned that there is a lot more to be learned before I consider myself a truly good player
-Started to rely on poker earnings for a growing portion of household expenses
-Learned that there is a lot of money to be made in moving up through the limits, but that poker as a source of income takes a lot of mental toughness to handle the swings
