The group resumes...

We started this group back in July. A Cardrunners member called peterpjames had the idea of a group of low limit players starting blogs and forming a community that would help each other out. The idea was excellent, and it worked very well - there are still a lot of regular bloggers from the original core of us. Five of us decided to begin another group. We felt like we were perhaps the most serious and committed players at the time, and we felt that forming a "break-away" group would benefit our progression further. Our plan was to have a weekly group sweat session followed by a discussion, as well as simply being there for each other as we went along on our poker journey.

We started this site with the plan to track our progress, and to discuss topics and hands that we found interesting or important. Unfortunately, we fell back on updating the site and then left it alone altogether. Well, now we're in 2008, we plan on starting the site back up with regular updates. The original group began with five members: Alex (DWarrior), Jason (LuckySOB), Joe (Dice14), Martin (DODGYKEN), and Noel (peten2toms). Unfortunately, Alex has decided to stop playing poker for the foreseeable future so our group is now a foursome. We wish Alex all the best with his studies, and hope he returns to poker at some point.

The plan for the blog in the immediate future is to write up the interesting hands that come out of our weekly sweat session. We'll be writing up the discussion that takes place after the sweat on the most interesting hands, and it'll be posted on here. We'll also be updating our own stories at the bottom right of the page. Each of us will have a link, and you can click on that link to read about where we've come from, and where we're at now. Along with this, there will be other things put up on the site regularly, and we'll all continue to update our personal blogs.


All the best for 2008,

Jason, Joe, Martin, and Noel.
