What site are you playing on?
Cool! I have thought about starting out on a party poker skin as well. Just downloaded bwin and there actually seem to be a decent amount of table going.
Had a coaching session with double2 today about calling in the BB. My winrate is -100bb/100 when I call pre which means that I might as well never call there (ignoring rakeback) and that seemed very wrong. Biggest conclusion was to fold less to flop cbets and play more aggressive, gotta keep that in mind in april and work on it. Will definitely watch the video when it comes out because it was quite a lot of information he gave me ♠_thumbsup:
March results 


Gonna play a bit more from now on. I finished reading Janda except the sample hands chapter.
Bankroll: $3566.52


Bankroll $4066.97
Games were so juicy tonight, some whales were deep and two regs seemed to make a lot of tilty plays against me. Good that i played anyway despite being barely able to keep my eyes open ![]()


Getting really close to nl100 ♠_biggrin: And I'm clearing a new $500 bonus, about 39% done.
Grinding music ♠_love:
Bankroll: $4382.01


Looks like it's possible for me to run below EV in 2015 after all, would have been playing nl100 otherwise :f_p:. 500$ Bonus is 58% complete. It's my 26th birthday the 24th and I don't like that at all, but at least I'll probably move up stakes as compensation ♠_frown:
Bankroll: $4502.72


Didn't play a lot because of celebrating & not being sober/awake enough to play much but I experienced nl100 for the first time ![]()
Here is my full nl50 graph (unless I lose 10 buyins on nl100 lol)


It's the start of a new month so here are the results of april:


I haven't played much because I got a job as a lifeguard in a water park in April. There was a lot of maintenance work so I was pretty tired on most days and often had a headache because I wasn't used to the sun yet. It's gotten a lot more relaxed now though, so I should be able to play a bit more again.
I have completed the bankroll challenge today, got $5231.62 on my poker account.
Here is the session that did it ![]()

I don't think I'll start a new bankroll challenge because my goal is to start playing nl200 with a 10k bankroll and from then on cash out some winnings but this blog will continue.
Bankroll: $5055.31
Lost a bit again but still finished with the bankroll challenge completed. The next $500 bonus is 82% complete so I should get that cash next week.
Need to get used to these swings, 2 buy-ins up or down still feels like a lot and that's not good for my mental state ![]()


Congrats for completing the challenge sir and wish you all the best with your new plans ♠_thumbsup:
