I made day 2 of the $2,500 8 game. My chips aren’t great, about half average at 8k, but I’m still in it. 40 get paid and 192 people are left. I had quite a bit of nerves for the first two hours of play or so since I haven’t played live in year, but […]
I remember a couple years ago every other day you’d see a post of people asking “should I make the leap and become a professional poker player?” or “I finally did it! I’m a professional poker player!” Well, you don’t see many people talking about going the other direction back to becoming an amateur. Most […]
Were not so great. Ended up dropping $20k. About a week into the month I was up $15k and tried pushing my luck in some fairly high stakes mixed games. I think I played in some good games, but I made some mistakes and didn’t run very well. I actually lost $8k in 24 hands […]
Been awhile I know. I’ve really been struggling mentally lately. Had to quit today after I was too tilted to continue from this hand I even have the Qh blocker so I can’t lose to QhJh. On the one hand losing really motivates me to play a lot of hands and hours to get my […]
I’ll just go ahead and tell you now there’s gonna be some whining so if you don’t want to hear it just leave now. Been downswinging pretty hard the past couple of weeks. July was one of my worst months ever, I ran -$25k in EV and ended up losing like $15k of my money […]
April ended up being a great month for me. My best ever in fact with me winning ~$37k. HEM Graph below. Obviously most of my winnings came from the stud games, as I ran pretty poorly in the big bets. I made some vast improvements in my O8 and stud8 games last month and am […]
March ended up being a pretty good month for me. I made ~$34k online and lost $6.5k playing live for a total of around $27.5k. I’ll take it! Live I played a $1,100 tournament out at Tulalip and only managed to last five hours of play or so. I wrote down most of my hands […]
February ended up being a pretty epic month. I squeaked out something like $10k, but I’m going to go ahead and call this month a fail. I was on pace for my best month ever got up pretty quickly to $80k at my peak, but after that it was basically just straight down to finish […]
In case you haven’t noticed I’ve been AWOL for the past six weeks. Blogging is kind of a vicious cycle where when I’m super busy I have all these things to blog about, but not much time to do it OR I have all the time in the world but nothing new is really going […]
Like I said last post I ended up having a good month and cleared about $20k including a $4k stars bonus finally. I didn’t end up getting that many hours or hands in, but I did win some monies so that’s all that really matters, right? The thing I’m most proud of last month was […]
