my start in gambling and poker

well hello im not sure how long i will keep blogging but for right now it helps to write some thoughts down.
well here is how it all started i won a superfecta horse race and the payoff was a high five figures plus and inheritance from my parents that i have never used for gambling well with that money from the superfecta i started betting on sports an was ok at it then i discovered poker i wasnt super great at it i never read any books the first six months i lost about $8k then i bought a video from taylor caby an just learned the basics an that got me through it i played cash games 10/20 nl was ok was good enough to support my self but then some thing went wrong and i started to lose consitintley i worked out the kinks in my game realized i couldnt handle the swings playing that high so i drop down to 2/4 and im fine their i play 1/2 ssome times i dont like to play for long period of time and i play probably 90% heads up mainly cake poker i realy like that site that site saved my poker career fulltilt and pokerstars where my biggest down falls i keep very little money on those sites . but back to cake i deposited $5k there and havent looked back some times i take shots there 25/50 the results have been ok but cant handle the swings so i just go back to my normal limits and i dont take those shots to often just when im just trying to win some money back yes i know thats not good money management but thats my biggest problem dont have good bankroll management i know im jumping around alot but like i said this is my first blog it will get better poker has done so much for me and given me s many oppurtunities but it doesnt help out my social life much i do have a job that i go to every day that gives me time away from poker which i relize now that i reely need .

well until the next time.
