Ran OK in April but not optimally. Still better than break even March though. 1/2 and 2/4 FR, HU and 6max +$3k rakeback
Sets have been treating me dirty lately imo (look at set/set)

Most hands I've ever played in one month
4000-4100 is 50NL, the rest up to ~14k is 25PL, after that is 25NL
moral of the story: obv, I suck

This was my bankroll building challenge I started doing for the month of April for Grinderschool. To bad they won't get to see how I did it. Back to poker.

Started playing on the 13th for the first time in 3 months. Played more hands in two weeks than I did in any month last year. Wheeeee unemployment. Could have played better and swongs are one thing, but I can't complain.
Deanglow: vn way to finish the month

nothing interesting. on the way down i was just running terrible at 25/50, and on the one that goes up it was me running awesome at 25/50.
ofc it helped tilting a guy playing HU at 10/20 and getting him to challenge me to move up stakes. he lost about 40k to me by himself over 2 days, which saved my month.

not sure how much i was up because my db was wiped out when i reformatted my hd, but my guess is i was up around 7k over maybe 45k hands. the sick part is i lost 13.4k.

This is such a terrible thought process.
If you post on FTR and actually play poker, fucking post a graph. If you only play 2-3k hands in a month and are embarrassed, fine don't post. But, if you're trying to think and play some significant amount (varies poster to poster), then don't be a bitch just because you had a losing month.

Move up and/or try 6-max. Full ring sucks if its all you play. Try some 6-max, I'm sure you will be making that amount in half of the number hands pretty soon if you switch.

is 6-max really that much more profitable than FR?
Does it just test postflop skills more with the loosening up and such?

If you are a good player which 'gametight' seems to be it is indeed more profitable if you can make proper adjustments. Full ring rarely tests your deeper understanding of poker and is more about patience hence better for heavy multitabling, but then again most of the full ring regulars even at 1000nl+ are fairly unimpressive.

I'm not going to post a graph cause it would bring down this thread.
Cliff notes on my month:
Ran Below expectation also played below expectation some. Tried to marathon in a ton of hands last minute to keep platnium cause my schedule isn't ideal for poker right now and that cost me money big time. The damage is 2k which sucks but its good cause its made me more driven to keep working on may game and focus more for next month which I will kill.
Uber Cliff notes.
Ran bad didn't play as good as I should have
-2k 
Edit{ I got my xbox paid for by stars so thats a bunus for sure.}

played twice this many hands on a non Ptracker site and at PLO on my main site.
turned a nice profit in both untracked placesj and finally won some money.
also much of this is in pounds, not $ so yay for that.

when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

I do play some 6max as well but I am able to 18 table at FR. That kind of hourly would be hard to get at 6max I think. There I usually stick to 6 tables, tops. I do enjoy 6max though.
Thanks Coco.... thats definitely a compliment coming from a player like yourself.

up 13kish...no point in posting graph cause its mostly from limit and tourneys. possibly going back to crushing 3/6 this month after breaking even over like 25k hands at 5/10.

My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

Least amount of hands played in a month, no motivation, tilt at higher stakes but still up 12k this month.
not sure if the downward slope would be steeper or not w/ currency conversion

Random mix of $50NL & $100NL, lots of tilt, 15 BI downswing, and a bit of HU at the end. Kinda disappointed cus this is all in the first 2 weeks (apart from the HU), so I could have got out of it, but didn't trust myself not to tilt.
Next month will be fine, cus am gonna borrow Shifu's luckbox at DTD

cutting down to 2 tables from 4 did wonders for my game...
+ $400 in bonuses / free tourney winnings
would have done better but the last week or 2 have been a routine of going up 1-2 buyins, then getting hammered by set over set/crakced AA and alot of bad beats
thinking of moving up to 50NL, but i may go 1 more month at 25nl..

Also didn't do well in tournaments, but I only played about 10 so that doesn't matter too much.
Should have stopped at hand 200 IMO. ; )
On the plus side, with rake back, and a little razz and omaha profit I almost broke even this month.

After break-even in March i withdraw my funds down to 2K and decided to change site. Didn't find one i fancied so i went back to my old one. With 2K-roll i worked my way back to 200NL.
+ 1550 rakeback
+ 550 bonus
= 4.9K

I think what he meant was he felt he wasn't at playing at high enuff limits to post a graph. Had nothing to do with winning/losing.

I'm posting this graph to embarass myself. This month I was on clunky PoS software that sucks starfish so much that I think I'm better off without the 30% rakeback I get from there.
That combined with running bad really took the joy out of poker for me this month to the extent that I gave up on it for a fortnight.
I'm shifting my BR to iPoker, so I hope that I can show you a pretty graph by the end of the month - Seeing the graphs in here made me drool.

2 months and 10,000 hands beating 100NL at 6.5BB/100 and I am more than confident at beating that level. I plan to finish the FTP b.onus (done 540 of 600 now) on 100NL - and then look to make the move to 200NL and see how I go. It may be mid this month or start of June - will feel that one out depending how I feel I am playing.
26 days is because in April I played hands on 4/2 to 4/28 - why that is 26 and not 27 I dont know... ask Poker Grapher
FWIW reading HOC has definitely been a plus for my game in letting me understand deepstack (>100bb eff stacks) pots better and how to play them profitably - as can be demonstrated in this months results.
Didnt get to play my budgeted 6,000 hands (only 4,000) due to a very sick child and purchasing a new house - but profitable none the less.

I played Almost all 3/6 and 5/10, and some wild stuff in between which i basically broken even in. I ran about 6.5 PTBB/100 at 5/10 running pretty hot i think and 5.5 PTBB/100 at 3/6, with a 49% W$@SD so i'm not sure if that was running hot.

You are a strong player,perhaps running slightly over expectation , but there is still no doubt about it that mid stakes is gradually becoming your bitch.

Thanks
I still have a lot of improving to do though. I only have a little experience at 3/6 and 5/10 and i feel like there's some stuff i'm not used to.

Here is my first months graph playing cash games, only starting on low stakes 10c-25c to start with until a little more experienced. My teacher "clarkatroid" is looking through my database checking for leaks etc and giving general advice at the end of each month! I know the basics from playing sngs for the last couple of years but have moved over to cash to avoid the shove/fold type of game that fustrated me a lot!! Also believe cash games to be much more profitable...... am looking for advice on when to move up stakes and wether the standard will change at all??? current bankroll is $ 835.00
