H-Bomb Is Back

I haven't posted anything here since October. I've had numerous projects going that have taken me away from my blogging, however I'm back now. I have recently been inspired by poker pros Scotty Nguyen (@TheScottyNguyen) and Chris Ferguson. As many of you know, Chris has completed a 0 to ten thousand challenge online at FullTilt Poker so I thought that I might attempt this feat as well. I started grinding freerolls and actually hit in a few. Using the bankroll management tips from Chris, I hit the penny tables. My bankroll has gone up & down but so far I am still holding at 22.50. I know its not much but it is a start and considering I started with nothing, I can't complain. I was also deeply inspired by Scotty Nguyen on a philosophical & emotional level. His beliefs that poker should be fun and his never give up attitude are crucial for me to successfully complete my quest. When Chris accomplished his goal, he donated his winnings to a worthy charity. I also believe in being charitable but since I'm not a professional, when my goal is reached I'm going to use those funds to play the WSOP Main Event and hopefully do very well in it. I know this will take time, dedication, determination and hard work but I will not stop. I even thought about trying to use Twitter and tweeting my way into the WSOP but people would probably call me a beggar or a bumb. I work for everything that I get and if given just 1 opportunity, I know that I can prove myself in the Poker World. I will try to update my blog on a regular basis and you can also hit me up on Twitter @HBombPoker. The Poker World is booming with new players and I will be one of them. I would like to say a couple things to Scotty on a bit of a personal note. I want to thank you so much for several reasons. If it weren't for you I wouldve quit playing poker a long time ago. I'm still playing because you urged me not to quit on something that I love. My dream is to meet you in person and perhaps play some cards but more importantly, I want to get to know the Real Scotty away from the Poker Table. I watch Scotty and many other pros play on television and I study them intently. I try to emulate their games as well as mixing my own style & strategy in. A bit of luck also helps. I carry this chip with me that has Scotty's face on the front of it. When I'm put in a tight spot on the table, I look at the chip & imagine myself hearing Scotty say "Don't Fuck Up Baby!". Scotty actually maiiled me that very chip, which is why I carry it with me to every poker game I play in. When I eventually hit Las Vegas, the H-Bomb is gonna blow up bigger than shit and I promise things will get interesting. "Boom Baby!"
