The short of it is I played good and I played bad… Had a very funny chart for awhile with the huge upswing after the bleeding money period after the other giant upswing.  I had AA 5 times early, but none over the last 500 hands.  Managed to lose -$12.25 with the AA’s overall….  Got […]

Took $600 in profits to pay for new kick ass Q6600 computer


Posted on 5 March 2008 at 3:39 pm EST by Smith | Permalink

Took $600 in profits to pay for new kick ass Q6600 computer.  My 2400+ was not cutting it at all.  I could only play one or two tables with HUD stats.  Since I need to be multi-tabling this was purely unacceptable.  I stopped playing poker for a week straight.  This wasn’t that bad since playing […]

I swims with the fishes


Posted on 26 February 2008 at 10:15 am EST by Monty3038 | Permalink

Yes, it’s bad grammar.  Duh.
Ok, so when I started this poker journey, it was more of a fluke.  Maybe that is why I am now shown as a fish on Sharkscope.  It’s true, look me up.  I don’t pretend to be great or hide from my mediocrity.  I am what I am.
That in mind, Yesterday […]

Moved to 50NL 6max already


Posted on 19 February 2008 at 1:35 pm EST by Smith | Permalink

Decided to take a couple shots at 50NL and I’ve found it easier then 25NL.  I think good table selection made all the difference in the world.  Sat with fishes instead of the regular descent players.  Since the bankroll is over $1200 I don’t see a reason to play 25NL unless I dip below that […]

Not playing as much as I would like


Posted on 17 February 2008 at 4:33 pm EST by Smith | Permalink

Well my initial goal was to make $400 a week, but I haven’t had a chance to even focus on poker at all!!!  Surprising I’ve been way too busy, and the days have gone by sooo fast.  I’ve done maybe a weeks worth  of poker in two weeks at best. 
 Frustrated a few times becuase as […]

Lessons Learned this Weekend


Posted on 11 February 2008 at 9:43 am EST by Monty3038 | Permalink

The lesson for this weekend is “Never Give Up”
 Saturday I played in a few $2 SNG’s at FTP, all in all I was down about $2 after playing in 6 of them.  That makes one 1st place, and 1 3rd place (the rake took the rest).  So not too good for the day.  I didn’t […]

Well I’ve been away from home the last few days which means 0 poker playing.  I decided to open up and play 4 tables of .25NL, and I got crushed.  Everybody was hitting gut shots on the river even after I double barreled.  It was soooo sick.  A few of these plus some bad plays […]

1st place and moving up in levels


Posted on 10 February 2008 at 12:56 pm EST by Andrew | Permalink

I grew my bankroll around 30% last month and ended up going on a downswing once we walked into February. Nothing too major but it was pretty much eating into my entire profits. One major factor however was the fact I took a swipe at 10NL. Now that’s a big jump from 2NL - 10NL […]

First Day


Posted on 6 February 2008 at 10:11 pm EST by Smith | Permalink

Played a measly 1,007 hands two tabling .25NL.  Was up $60 then $40 back up to over $60.  Played within the system very well, had a couple fish catch flush’s on the river.  Lost the minimum on one because he checked it to me when he hit!!! Another I got reraised all in and folded.  […]

Mission: Make money, build up bankroll, move up stakes
