The beginning

Hello everybody.

I've just decided to start writing a Poker Blog. I am a Portuguese Poker player and I really want to improve my skills in No Limit Texas Hold'em and that's the main reason why I am doing this.
In this Blog you will find some information about this game, challenges that I am going to propose myself, some moves, bad beats, and so on.
I hope you will really enjoy it.

See you!
