WTH, I just realized I didn't post results in the above hand. Opponent had JJ, turned a set.


Anyway, April is over for me. When I play tonight it will be May and I'll still be playing 50NL, which isn't a bad thing. I could be playing 25NL :P

I went through about a 30k hand stretch where I was just not winning and I dropped approx. 12 or so BI. Just a ton of coolers, with a bit of my own spew/misplays thrown in, and I thought that shit was gonna last forever. Instead, and luckily it only lasted about 2 weeks.

Last two days, in about 2500 hands I've made up for that entire downswing and the BR is at a new high. Sometimes poker is just silly like that I guess.

April:




I also played about 6800 hands at 100NL and am down a little over 2 BI overall at that stake. But I did clear a Gold bonus on Stars, so it evened out I guess. I really do think my 5k BR goal for moving up is a bit conservative, and I might reconsider once I get over 3k and start getting close to 4k. By then I should have cleared at least one more bonus (hopefully a Platinum) and maybe put together some more cash to add to the roll. We'll see I guess.

Final April stats:

Hands played - 63,587
Profit - $1272



Goals for march:

Hands played - 75000
Move up to 100NL with minimum of 35-40 buy ins
Get FPPs for and clear Platinum bonus - need 40k fpps
