Beginnings

Welcome to my new blog! It will be focusing on my journey from amatuer poker player to , hopefully, professional level play. I will update everytime I play a tournament, cash game, or home game. My updates will include stats pertaining to tournament victories and bankroll swings. For those of you who don't know me my name is Greg Padilla. I have a wonderful wife, Emily Padilla, and a month and a half old son, Aiden Padilla. I mostly play online under the alias Redhollywood but can also be found in home games around mobile and my favorite place to play Cardsharks. I hope you enjoy my trip through the poker world and I also hope it turns out to be one wild ride. The journey begins October 23, 2007
