2013: Make or break

[!Luck]

grats on house and baby. maybe it makes sense to grind up online a bit before going somewhere where you are underolled. nothing worse than you droping 5-10g and then needing to wait months/years to get back into the game...

good luck

Yah the problem is the live games are soooooo much softer than online. But yah I'll probably keep playing the 5/5 games ($1k buyin) as long as I have a 5k buyin and drop down accordingly. The games are soft enough that I'm not quite as worried about variance in them. Also the games are much more passive than online, which should also lower variance.

Went back to the casino today. Played around 5.5 hours and was up $1050. Not too many interesting hands. Mostly just value betting big hands, and making reasonable folds.

18 visits
$20,750k
Total hours: 105.5 hours
Hourly: $206.46
Hands: 5275 hands (50 hands/hour)

I figured that since I'm generally waiting about 30mins to play and driving 35mins there and back, it might also be useful to see what my total hourly is (including travel and wait time).

Additional hours per visit = 100 mins (1.666 hours)
Total hours over all visits = 18 visits * 1.666 hours/visit = 30 hours
Total hours (incl wait/travel) = 135.5 hours
Adjusted hourly = $153.13 per hour
