My BR went down from 1000$ to 130$ in under 2 months. Then I had a good month, then bad one again. March looks OK, so far (touch wood). But I have changed poker room and players are much weaker here... :f_cool:

I look at it this way:

It's much better to experience bad downswing at NL10 than later, say at NL100 :f_biggrin:


Sick month, both in poker and life. Probably the most sickest one.

anyway, I believe life changed my play dramaticaly, f**king neuropsychology.

so, here's the graph.

I hope I will get profit next month, I had many coolers and many bad beats, I wasn't looking at my graph for long so when I saw that all in EV is above 0 I was suprised.

Haven't been playing much, just that many. Didn't have time and so list goes on... And sometimes I was like, oh, what a shitty mood, I beter not go to play poker because I will lose, and here comes "I said that" afterwards.

anyway, didn't finish any of this month goals, anyway, next month goals:

:spade: 20 000 hands.
:spade: break even
:spade: fix my mood

Looking forward to next month :f_biggrin:

ok, so even thought I had a downswing last month, and lost like 30$ because of downswing coolers and probably B game, I am back and managed to make all that money in 2 days, 25$ come from today!!! you can call it upswing, but I gues it's ok after 30 days of running bad!!!

Today I moved my bankroll to PartyPoker, got 100$ restricted bonus, that's ok rakeback, plus PartyPoker have NL4, never had I tried that. Sad... Because it is very playable or so.
Tried pokerstars too, really liked that, tilted a bit on the end. Stupid fishes allining every hand, and when I call with monster, they have even bigger monster. Because of not having any rakeback I am not playing there.

Anyway, these are my this month graph.

PartyPoker. 1Day graph.

still downswing on Cereus.

and a bit of pokerstars.

I gues taking break worked fine for me, made money in 2 days that I lost in 30 days.
I look forward to moving to NL10, that's not far away now with proper bankroll management :f_biggrin:

sorry left blog tthinking it has no interest.

Anyway, I just finished 5th on 10 000$ freeroll with prize of 430$

That's like triple of my bankroll, I am so happy. Now my bankroll stands at 600$. I hope this will motivate me to beat cash games.!!!!

well, I used to say that too. Won 2 Big cointflips, that's all I gues. :f_biggrin: then skill was ok I gues. I felt a big edge on other players.

thanks for commenting. Will post some graph in the end of week.


made deal in 2$ buy in tournament of 661 people. Earned $150. I gues this is ok :f_biggrin:

It felt so easy, though I believe I was unlucky.

will probably swith to MTT.

2FInal tables on big tournaments in a row. Fish on heater :f_biggrin:

bankroll stands at 770$, I took of 100$ back then. So added that. My carier earnings are about 870$ :f_biggrin:

maybe I will reach goal of 2000$ by 2011. :f_biggrin:


Happy for you :) keep it up :) 770 amazing bankroll. Yeah post some graphs :)


absolute poker.

this graph would not make sence without all in ev. Party

tourneys

luckbox so far :f_biggrin:

anyway, don't know what to play now. Cash games or Tourneys. But will decide in couple of days.

so far my profit history:

September 2010 100$
February 2011 170$
March 2011 -30$ (Allin ev +6$)
April 2011 630$

Something like that :f_biggrin:

Cashed ouy my starting capital and profit on September, then didn't play a lot. Then got 25$ on February and started playing again.


maybe someone wants to stake me for any tournament? d :f_biggrin:


even though I got some good results on Freeroll and other tournament, I still feel like being most unlucky player in the world. Dunno, maybe that's not only me.


How many tables are you playing? If you play more tables and more hands, the variance will be lower (assuming you really have a huge edge) ;)

Also, well done in the tourney!

Sėkmės :P


I play 1-2 tables, so it hurts a bit, I hate those guys calling with runner runner straights and getting it, so sick, I got busted by AA 4 times today. I gues even fish can trap with AA. so sick, was playing like maniac because I got a lot of good hands, but still they called once I raised with mediocre...

What doesn't kill us makes us stronger.
Cmon, I can do it, I can.. What is wrong with me? :f_mad:


trying to learn NL25, so far optimal stress helps me to think. Rake is really high, so maybe I will become gold. But I don't think so, I don't play a lot of hands.

I don't feel lucky or unlucky so far. Variance so far is ok (which is unnormal on that hand sample)

I really hope I will be able to beat NL25 and play it on summer. :f_biggrin:

yikes, just started NL25 and allready crushing it. (Just heater)

Maybe someone wants to stake me for NL200 or something? :f_biggrin:

For real, tournaments really motivated me, pluss optimal stress adds(no more cents). Never had I beat NL10 or NL4 but it looks like I am adapting to NL25 preaty easily. :f_biggrin:

Till next downswing :f_biggrin:
