Turning a new leaf

Well, I have decided to really buckle down and budget my playing. The main reasons for this is pretty much I constantly get screwed all day in anything except hu sngs. I am no longer going to play hu cash games at any stakes, 9 man sngs at any stakes, wsop 33r's, and any tourney outside of sunday majors. This should help yeiled me 10-20k by the end of the year so hopefully i can stick to it.

As for Hu's this week has been awful I am down 1k this is mainly due to cash game loses and a horrific -5k monday from non-stop suckouts. I am going to work on hopefully turning a small profit by the end of the week.

Hand history from Hu cash game earlier (Standard cash game bs)

Durrr

Lately poker has been meh. Over the month I have played lots of mtts and events but, cant seem to avoid suckouts deep which has hurt my profit this month. I think overall I am around 8-12k this month which is fine with school begining to wind down and all. Last week I played the FTOP Hu event but, played my D-F game due to there horrific software, busted in a 100k pot AQ vs QJ pre in the million then busted in round 3 in hu event for 5th consecutive week.

Over the next month I am going to look for someone to stake me in satelites the 33r and 215 ds to the wsop. This will hopefully turn a decent profit for us both because its just a matter of time till I win another package the suckouts at final tables will end eventually.

Today, was pretty crappy lost to handful of donkies cause of them turning or rivering cards and me not able to drop top pair at times and a couple suckouts. 400 down which isnt that bad but, negative days piss me off in general.

Great Start

This month has started off very well. This week im up around 9k this is mainly because 500s running normal and not non-stop bad beats. Right now im almost Supernova and on pace for around 300k fpps. Next year I am going to grind 16 table 50 buck 9mans for fpps and try and hit elite w/ hus obviousl. Last night I played 2 tournies out of bordem went deep in both was 50 out of the money in a 55k guarantee and was chip leader 3 bad beats nad 10 mins later im knocked out.

This month im trying to incorporate 500s normally so I can mentally prepare myself for the swings. I am planning on playing some majors tomorow hopefully make it farther then a hour in (highly unlikely) and then some wsop satelites. Im hoping to finish the week strong with a 1k+ day and a 10k week which would be my first except the wsop package I won earlier this year. This week also put me over 70k for the year and on pace for 200k+. Updates to come

End of April

Well, things are starting to improve with a 3.4k week so far. This was helped by a 1k win and several 500's. These wins at higher stakes helps give me more confidence that my 500+ running bad streak is over. The main reason why last week went so bad was constantly getting the player below 300 chips and losing in $500 games. My goals for May are to make 25k profit, play many wsop satelites, and cash in a major. I currently have 4 weeks left of school which i cant wait to finish. Once school is out I am going to be playing more live tournies and cash games.

April

April is starting to wind down and i have cooled off. The first 2 1/2 weeks i was getting 1k+ but, this week has been pretty bruital with only a 1.5k profit so far. Overall this year I am way ahead of my target goal of 100k. Right now I am 65k+ this year so hopefully if I step it up ill get over 200k by the end of the year. Ive made a few more wsop final tables but no packages. I am hoping by the end of the month to get near 70k profit which would be nice. Lately I have tried to move up to 500s but, every game is struggle of bad beats and card dead situation. My last 11 out of 12 500s have been get them to 300 chips they start pushing everyhand go card dead and get sucked out then eventually lose.
Updates to come

Week 2- Solid week 5k profit made some mroe wsop final tables no packages but, overall good week
Week3 (Current week)- best week so far in awhile up around 5.5k. Played some live cash games made about 500. Im starting to play more tourneys and 9 man sngs just for fun while still playin some hus. Only 1 wsop final table 7th i suck

Next couple of weeks hopefully turning 5k a week and take down some of these wsop packages and get a final table on a regular tourney.

3/14

aight well heres the update I took a week off early march to relax and keep my mine off poker after a streaky week of up 10k then only up 2k. So far this week has been great im up around 1.5k on hus, 1.1k on satelites, and I won the 33r for a WSOP seat so that a solid 15k week. That puts me at around 40k this years which is definitley on my way to 100k.
