    Default January Results Thread

    It's the afternoon on the 31st and somehow no one has started this thread. I hope that doesn't mean no one wants to show off his graph! Let's see 'em.
    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.

    I'll start, mines been public for a week.



    And if anyone cares and just because I want to embarrass myself even more, here's December and January together

    Default best month ever

    hi all, been a while since i posted. i'm still here, and had my best month ever. also my first month ever where I was +EV for some reason, now over the last 1/4 million hands im only 3k behind ev instead of 5.

    enjoy

    I didn't play too well this month, especially at the end when I played a few thousand hands of 1-2 just keep to Supernova status, I played REALLY bad. At least I didn't lose money but I have some catching up to do if I want to keep pace with my goals.

    I got a cool new program called Tourney Trax that does statistical summaries and graphs of tournament results, so I'll just put both graphs ITT.






    Edit: didn't realize my graph was so huge, sorry.

    soaking up ethanol, moving on up
    january was a funny poker month. Started with some running terribly then tilting worse, then i had an experiment where i never folded overpairs, limped a wider range from EP, check-shoved all sets and NFDs out of position. Then i posted some stats, did some study, and clawed it all back the last three days of the month - good timing to hit some +ve variance.

    just under $1.8k for the month after rakeback, bonuses, and cashing some loyalty freeroll

    Best month ever, and it's not even close.



    I think I might actually be able to make some real money now... but I won't be taking any shots at 200nl, until I'm stupid deep.

    Also made 8 bi's in the last 2 days of 2008, and netted around 1.1k in bonii


    p.s. sry jyms.
    So you click their picture and then you get their money?

    A fine month. Not pant-shittingly great, but not soul-crushingly bad. Overall I'm happy, but dissatisfied with a bunch of mediocre play that contributed to the lackluster winrate.

    Don't have PTO and I pretty much broke-even at tournaments

    made like $1k in other ventures though

    ~$12k all together, put in my 2nd highest volume ever, 100k+ hands.
    Not close to my best month, but still solid me thinks.

    Im opedipus bitch, the original balla.
    I'll get a graph up later. After around 40k hands of 200nl I was at $8.8k for the month. THat was until this week were I played 10k hands and lost a little over $2k.

    End result is somewhere like 50k hands for $6.5kish I believe.

    Wow good job everyone!

    i was up 1k in cash in 16k hands, down 14k in buying pieces and shots with a quarter of my action, and down a lot in travel expenses!
  23. #23




    +2-3k$ bonus and rakeback
    +700$ tournament

    Beat: Passed out drunk yesterday and my friends shaved my eyebrowz off
    Beat: Autofolded the best hand in a big pot writing this post

    I tried to move up to nl200, made 2k$ and then went on a downswing. Now i am too scared to play it. Thinking im gonna stay at nl100 for a while.. What do you guys think?

    Didn't play nearly as many hands this month as i first thought i would. Played about 120k hands the first 13 days then took a long break. Gonna try doing 100-150k hands per month from now on.

    Cheers

    Awesome, I'm like the only FTR reg having a losing month amongst everyone else having their best ever. For some reason my PT shows less money lost than my graph. The graph is more accurate. -10bi at 200NL, -10 at 100NL, then breakeven at 100NL forever. 40% rakeback helps a little I guess, but I seriously fear this game right now.

    Dude, 120k hands in the first 13 days!?!? You have some sick work ethic

    Moved back down to 25NL for a bit of confidence. If i'd have known i was gonna have a heater I'd have stayed at 50NL



    Absolutely pathetic volume tho, which i intend to rectify in Feb. I will ship $50 to the first two ppl (non-ballers) that quote this post if i don't play 25k hands this month.

    I thought you meant to quote it after the month if you failed. I'll take your money though, it's not coming from poker after all.

    I could use $50, too. For your volume's sake I hope you don't lose this prop. Don't forget that February is a short month .


    And congrats to all those who put up huge numbers (425K?!!). They are simply mind-boggling to me at my current stage.

    As for my winnings, I was up $137 in OPR-tracked tourneys for a 44% ROI. I'll have to check out my cash graph and post it up here, but I'm pretty sure I was in the red as it was my first month really playing cash HE.
