Lack of Updates

Because of lack of playing... :(
But i did play a donkament... also i cashed out $3,800 this month :)

Day 3: Sick heater @ 50nl!!

So i have decided im going to just stay at NL50 this month and grind like mad as my winrate and hourly rate at this level is massive in comparison to any other level i've played.

Yesterday i played a session and for the first time in about 2 months decided to use my HUD, i hadn't been before as my computer is pretty old and it slows it down like mad when i use the HUD but i was also only 6 tabling which i think it can just about cope with.

Anyway the session went really well and in just over 4 hours i had made $700 (14 buyins!). Today wasn't too different and i made just over 9 buyins. So heres my graph for the first 3 days of February.


Total Hands Played: 8,000 (660/hour)
Total Hours Played: 12 hours
Winnings: $1250 (+ $110 rakeback)
Pace: $540

Bankroll: $3000

February Challenge

This month i think im going to set myself a challenge, my hourly last month was still $34/hour and my winrate 3.7ptbb/100 which suprised me, i guess i only put in 39 hours of play, which is nothing since this is my sole income! So next month im setting myself a target of making 100 buyins! Thats $5000 at NL50.

I think what this will do is encourage me to play, i want to try and stick to a pace so if i fall behind i will have to play more to catch up, i don't know how many hands i will have to play but heres some examples of how i could get to $5000;

25,000 hands @ 20 BB/100 (1070 hands/day)
50,000 hands @ 10 BB/100 (1780 hands/day)
60,000 hands @ 8.3 BB/100 (2150 hands/day)
80,000 hands @ 6.2 BB/100 (2680 hands/day)
100,000 hands @ 5 BB/100 (3580 hands/day)
150,000 hands @ 3.3 BB/100 (5350 hands/day)

The 'pace' that i will have to keep means making $250 a day (5 buyins) assuming i play 5 days a week. I'll try and keep this blog updated as much as i can.
