My last session of the month was a disaster. It was one of, if not THE worst days ever, I lost $1800. It really hurt the bottom line.

1st Quarter of 2009 Results

Overall results:




200NL (6max) results:






My main goals were to play 15k-20k hands a month and make $20k for the year. The year started off slow but I put in a lot of work in last 5-6 weeks getting my average up to 20k hands/month for the first 3. As for the $20k? I deleted "My Documents" from my laptop by mistake including all my gambling related excel files so my records aren't totally accurate. I do believe I'm up about $2483.20, pretty pathetic. I'm only on pace to get half way to my goal.

Looking at my stats, it doesn't look that bad. I figured I was a break even player at 200NL (6max) and it looks like I can pull of a 1BB/100 hand profit (I was down about $1400 in all-in EV bad luck.) The other levels/games I can't really analyze as the small size is ridiculously small. I also played five $30 one table tourneys which I did well in, I cashed in 3 of them showing a little profit. Any advice on those stats/graphs/etc. would be appreciated.

For the next 3 months I would like to play about 50k hands. I'll probably play a lot less in June as the weather around here gets better. And hopefully, my fortune turns a little and I start seeing some nicer results.
Also, as the baseball season is just around the corner. I am going to start to give baseball handicapping a shot and that will affect this goal as I will be using this money. I'm going to make this a poker/sportsbook bankroll. I plan on using $20 as a unit and pretty much betting that each time. Mostly betting dogs and some over/unders.
