Good last few days

As you can see i've had a good last few days and im looking on pace to hit all my monthly goals. I should hit SuperNova in a few days so i'll probably post again when i get there and do a little update for the month.

I've played close to 100k hands of 100nl now, when i first moved up from 50nl i didn't really get the hang of it and was pretty much breakeven. When i realised that most people at 100nl suck and stopped being scared of them my results have improved dramatically and im pretty pleased with them. here you can see my last 70k~ hands running at 4ptbb/100.

November Results, December Goals

November Goals:
[ ] 120,000 hands
[ ] +$5,000 profit /w rakeback


= $4,100~

Goals for December:
[ ] 70,000 hands
[ ] +$5,000 profit /w rakeback
[ ] 90% 100nl FR
[ ] supernova

So November went pretty well overall i guess. I felt i was playing really well throughout the whole of the month. I increased the ammount of tables i was playing from 9-12 upto 18-20 so i was about to get a huge ammount of volume in. I think this is the most ammount of hands that i have ever played in a month.

About 40k hands in a started playing some 6-max and within a few days dropped a ton of buyins and went 20bi below ev. No 6-max next month! I also took a shot at 200nl which went really badly so i think i will avoid doing that again for a while.

A small recovery

So after the failed 200nl shot i talked about in my last post i have been grinding hard to make back my losses. 100nl feels easier than ever right now. The other day all the 50BB min tables were packed with regs and i really wanted to play so looked at the normal tables and found there were hardly any good regs at them, just loads of shortstackers....

I won't repeat myself but rather link you to this post where you can see how i got on vs the shortstackers :) Of corse it hasn't been going that well all the time and i have had quite a few BE/losing sessions but heres a few pics of stats from the last 3 days.


Should be able to reach my 120k hand goal by the end of the month :D

Failed shot at 200nl

So i took a shot at 200nl yesterday that failed quite badly. It played alot different than i imagined it would and i think i tried to adjust my game to compensate by 3betting alot wider than i normally would. This put my in tough spots in larger pots than i was used too. I wouldn't say i was too out of my comfort zone but i remember one hand where i lost the nerve to fire large on the turn into 2 people beacuse it would mean shoving $200 on the river as a bluff if i missed my double gutter.


I've decided to grind the remainder of the year out at 100nl where im feeling pretty comfortable and should be able to make back $1600~ there by the end of the month.

$1k day right when i needed it

So Sexy :}

Took a break. playing shorter sessions.

So after losing a bunch last week i dont think my head was on very straight. If i ever play a session where instead of waiting till the big blind comes before sitting out i just kill stars to quit, then i know i should take a little break from poker.

This 'break' didn't really consist of much. I played a bunch of HoN and went the the driving range with my dad. I hadn't played golf in a while and we got a jumbo basket each. Hitting so many balls really tore up my hands and i have about 3 blisters on each now ;/


Last night a started up some tables again and decided i wanted to just book a win to save me any stress. I played 1k hands and made $220 which i was happy with. Since then i've tried to carry on just playing short sessions. I know alot of pro's do this and i think the reasoning behind it is to keep fresh and on your A game. Anyway, its going well so far so i think i'll keep it up. The only downside of course is not getting in as much volume!

Bad Downswing!

So the other day i lost around $1600 in 4000~ hands. I took a break and managed to get back on track and grind some of it back but it was still horrid. The first session was at 100nl 6-max and i think i was allin about 8 times in the session. I lost all but 1 flip and lost 3 times when i was 80% fav. At one point i was 16bi below EV over 3,000~ hands as you can see from the orange line on my graph.

Now i just have to grind alot to try and make $3,000+ by the end of the month.
