Feb Update

Been Getting back into the swing of things this week, with the new laptop i had to get used to the new hud new table layouts and new work environment. Although in the beginning i found it suprisingly tough to actually work at a desk (even had to go hospital to help sort my back out as i was sitting so poorly) i've now found a good medium where i can keep a reasonable posture and grind out as long as i want.

In terms of poker I ran pretty average/bad at 100nl and at 200/400 nl i ran badly.

At these limits my table selection is alot harder whilst i am still in makeup so the level of players is lower so in the longrun my winrate should be bigger.
here are graphs of both computers.

Bankroll is at just over $24k.

If any of the backers want to do a meeting before i start playing in march also can you please respond here. If i don't get an answer I will continue as normal.

Great to see the stake moving firmly in the right direction, despite the volume being almost only at NL100. Looking forward to future updates :)

I'd like to state my intent that i will be playing 200nl now vs regs and hu zoom instead of only 100nl.

I think it is a waste of time when i have already proven really good winrates at 200nl in the past and am clearly beating 100nl at decent rate in bb/100 vs regs.

The reasoning behind this move is because i cannot support myself for too long without starting to make a profit(I have had to lend/ pay for lots of unforseen expenses) so any way in which to increase my hourly i must take.

if any backers have issues please post here and message me.

Thanks in advance

James

today i felt relatively comfortable playing mainly zoom managed to get 3 fish to myself near to the end of the day and dropped 8 bi in 70 hands.

i looked over all the 50bb+ pots i think i may have made 1 blatent mistake for $170 not going to kick myself over it though.

dont know exact balance as pkr was down when i finished but i think bankroll is at 24.8k

playing lots of zoom going ok so far not bad but not good either.

Level of play varies greatly sometimes its bad regs sometimes its nl5k regs but they always think they can 4 table lots of different guys and a probably a good spot.

up 1k so far in april but imgur doesnt seem to want to let me upload any pictures so cant show the graph.

Volume has been low as i've been doing a lot of study into my hem database and deciding on good default ranges for zoom players until i have decent samples on the guys.
