Annoying end to month which stopped me putting in more volume also. Had trip to Austria this month, went to Rapid Vienna game which was good. Writing this blog halfway though November so I can't remember much of last month. I played some high stakes, as high as £10/20 chasing whales and won a little there. Graph in BB says I'm up 30 buy ins.

Another holiday this month which was to Malta and was amazing. On 13th of the month I'd only done 3k hands and was down £1k, so I'm v please with how this month turned out. Next month off to Vienna for 4 or 5 nights, hopefully play a live tourney or 2 and see if my luck in Austria can continue.

Feel like I've been playing good but for sure need to put more volume in.

Lots of time off, holiday in Cyprus plus a fwe other weekends away.

Shit end to the month, my net was fucked and was getting tilted easily and pretty much playing like a retard.

Had lots of time off for a few weekends away and tooka good 4 days to recover after TITP. Put money on Party and Stars. Did 28k hands on iPoker, 6.3k on Party and fuck all apart from a few losing HU sessions on stars. Paid £480 rake on Party, not sure how much or when I will get any of that back, the main thing is I'm playing better and that I keep winning.

Had what I think is my best day at cash on the last of the month. Ran well at the 6m tables and managed to get a whale at $600hu. Ended that day at 6pm £3.6k up, then went out to celebrate.

Finally on top of my non-showdown winnings (lol losings more like), was even till the last day of the month when I dropped over £1k (playing a fish that never folds A high HU).

Next month more of the same, got a weeks holiday though so volume will probably be similar. Hopefully more than 40k hands though.

Played less tables and felt better for it. Nonshowdowns improved but took a huge hit towards the end of the month. Ran under EV which is getting pretty old. Feeling good about June so far, hopefully it continues.

April 2011

Played tons of tables this month grinding it out. 12+ tables is one way to do it but it is pretty clear that regs who play less tables are exploiting those who play more. I guess it depends on preference as I wouldn't be surprised if the mass tablers are making a better hourly.

May so far I have been playing less tables and I think I'm playing a lot better and not losing so much at non-showdowns. I've gone through spells like this before so we will see how it works out in 100k hands or so. Hope to keep playing good and run better and a £10k month souldn't be too far away.

It's been a really frustrating year so far, I've played like a dick a couple of times at higher stakes which as cost me. Redic under EV also but not much that I can do about that.
