August Results

Today was my last august work day since I'm spending my week-end away. I'm proud to end this month up +8.4K$
After several months battling 70K hands for finishing at best even, I played "only" 24K hands this month for one of my best result. I'm looking forward to september where I should be able to play a little more.











I'll spend some time beginning september to give a new shot to PLO. I have read few times on the web that edge in NLH will decrease as players are improving day bu day with all the informations there is now available.
I think I've started playing NLH a bit too late, after what we could call a "gold age", I don't want to miss a PLO opportunity and I should start now to learn the game.

Keep it up !

3 more days with some profit. I managed to end this period up +1980$ but I think I didn't play great during this time. Why ? Mainly because I had a lack of motivation and secondly because I have my son at home and it's not so easy to play when I want and when the tables look soft and it's harder to be 100% concentrated.











Two hands tonight :

The lucky one : set vs underset on a 200bb pot

The unlucky one : 2 outer vs my overshove @ turn

Better !

Last 3 days have been quite good, running at 4.5BB/100 for a +2600$ profit.












I'm definitely back into the game after my 2 weeks break and I really appreciate each time I'm playing for the moment. I know I should be more cautious to avoid to be fed up with the game but since I'm winning for the moment I don't care much about it ;)

Here is the biggest pot won this month :

Poker seems easy wuth such hands

And biggest lost :

The flop is quite drawy for vilain who can call a hand like KJ,Axs... KK and AQ are also in his range. I definitely don't regret to have shoved in that spot

Back to business

After taking 2 weeks off to take some nice vacations with my family I'm back at the tables. After a really nice start I'm on a small downswing right now. Nothing really scary, just variance :)











+822$
Right now I'm still taking some shots at NL400. If I keep lossing for the next days I might go down to NL200 but I'm not too worried for the moment.

Cured !

Fast post to tell you that I am definitely cured ! After struggling 2 months I managed to get back on track end of july. So I ended the month with some nice days and more important, my confidence is back !

Overall I'm doing a litlle positive month since 800$ are missing in this graph and I also finished 40th in one sunday million tournament for 3K$. I think if I say I ended up +1K$ I should not be far from the truth.












Even If I played bad more than half of the month you can see that I didn't run really good neither... I hope I will improve that side of my game :)
