sandstorm's 2007 ownage thread
Finally, another of those "operation" or "blog" things, just what we all wanted, right?
Short summary: Started playing shorthanded in July this year, 100NL. (After fooling around for like 2 years with full ring, MTT's, SnGs, etc etc). Moved on up to 200NL, 400NL etc and now in December tried some 600NL and ran uber hot. made like $16k in a week (!) and then obv ran uber bad to lose 6-7k of it. Most was bad lucky, really. Simply didn't hit anything, but when I did, I got no action. That kind of running bad. Still made a 4.5ptBB/100 or so, but since my confidence is down (obv some bad play was in there too) and I had to cashout a lot, 5k extra in December, to buy furniture and pay some double rents etc while moving in to a new a apartment, I'll just drop back to 400NL for a while.
THE PLAN:
I have not much to do at all until this autumn, but to play poker. I'll take the chance because I can. Probably school time then, if I just can figure out what I want to do. Anyway, poker+gym (I am in the worst shape ever) is the plan the following months. So;
* Play as much as I can. 40k hands in Jan at least.
* Cashout 3k / month
* Move up when comfortable
* $$$$$
I made ALMOST 10k in December, but cashed out a lot etc so I only increased my bankroll with 2-3k since Nov. I now have exactly $22044 to play with, and 55 buyins for 400NL should be enough. I want to be back at 600NL with confidence soon, my plan is @ 40 buyins, so a few more k. We'll se how it goes. This will be my post results and thoughts thread, since I think that could be healthy for me. This is just some kind of first draft.
I'm off for a three day drunken fiesta over New Years, so hang tight. Back to the tables the 2nd Jan 2007 in other words. Until then, HAPPY NEW YEAR! (make sure to get drunk and have a lot of good stories when I come back)
