quick recap with graph

ok some quick hitters on the month

- thank you thank you thank you thank you poker gods for the run good blessing. Couldn't have done it with out you.

- playing a ridiculous number of hands over the past few months has made me a vastly improved hand reader

- I'm starting to enjoy playing 3 hour plus session a few times a week. This is good because it ups my volume of hands and lets me really develop reads on players at my tables

- I'm not sure if I should start taking shots at 5/10 again or not. My bankroll is considerably more than enough to do it (like way more than enough) but I've gotten into a 16-tabling groove and obviously I can't do that while playing 5/10. Plus the 5/10 games are all 6max and I think my 6max game is not nearly as good at my FR game right now (I play much better against the FR regs than the 6max regs). So I'm just not sure that my hourly rate would be as good playing 5/10. The argument for it is that if I ever have aspirations of moving up to 10/20 and 25/50 then I need to be able to beat 5/10 consistently. But I don't need to play those levels to have a great year. So I'm torn, but for now I think I'm going to keep grinding 16 tables of 2/4 and 3/6.

- I had my best month ever by a significant amount.

- I'm considering mixing in some big sunday tournies into my cash game mix. I'm +EV in those tournies and it gives me motivation to grind in the afternoon and evening.

graph of last month:




that's all for now. Going to update tomorrow with my thoughts on the duke unc game, watchmen, and how my month is going so far. I might even dig up some hands because there are some hands I'm feeling great about and one hand I'm furious that I made such a bad fold on.

later

WOW. That is awesome. Very jealous since I dropped $1800 at the end of last year and am tapped. Keep it up.

Did you withdraw any of that? What, generally, do you do with it? (certainly not investing it these days, right? lol)
