November Results + LOL!

November was a funny month.

Guys that play cash games will be used to those kind of dips. But I hate them losing $5000 in 3 days crushed me for a while.

Managed to put the hands in though 25,000.











Playing a few tables this evening and Greg Raymer joins in the table. I am already on the verge of tilt as had to lost flips + all the players are actually good on my tables for a change which is annoying and Raymer sits down as if just to rub it in....

Anyway lol at game chat!

Tits up

Gone a bit tits up lately

This weeks graph














This months looks allot more healthy, but the whole thing is rather tilting

Grind

Played for 16 hours yesterday!

Amount of hands played isn't going to be a problem.... the win rate might be a problem though. In the end yesterdays session went well but only because one player at the end went mental and dropped a grand to the table...

Yesterday I played 2669 hands and won $1705. But that was the exception as had had a few days off before that and was reading water in the days before that.
For the whole of November I have played 11,799 hands and I am ahead $5,069.

Will be putting in the hours for the rest of the month so hopefully we can get near to having $20,000 online before xmas.

LOL

LOL at my laziness since March. Was running my stats (see below) this month when I decided to have a look at my Hilo stats this year broken down by month. There are some excuses about my lack of hands from July onwards (i decided PLO was the way forward - my pokertracker stats say it wasn't.) but even then its embarrassing how lazy I have been at times this year. Well onwards and upwards.

This month I have played about 7000 hands so far and am in front about $3500. So its quite a good month i suppose. Still on target for my 25,000 hands by xmas. the hands below are directly from pokertracker and don't take into account any rakeback , bonuses etc. so all in all it looks like a good(ish) poker year. However betfair has been appalling, despite some big wins on the golf I am well down this year again and judging by my card deposits and withdrawals i should just give the whole thing up whatsoever.



January 800 + $3300
February 17,500 +$9800
March 17500 +$10,100
April 1,400 -$800
May 5900 -$114
June 12,000 +$2600
July 5300 +$1300
August 2300 -$1500
September 686 -$737
October 7900 +$1400
November 5600 +$2800

Update

I'm in America just now visiting my brother and playing golf. But I have actually been playing a bit of poker online for the 1st time since April. Unsurprisingly borne out of a dwindling amount of cash but I am actually enjoying it. Been playing on stars only (as in the states) so been playing Hilo PLO and quite enjoying myself.

Spending cash is fun but getting a job wont be so its given me a real kick in the stones. Hopefully I wont grind away only to go back to my lazy habits again once I have a comfortable amount of cash behind me again. My issue with regard to blogging is that I have no plans to play any live tourneys, go anywhere exciting (poker related) or play high (ish) stakes. So I cant see anything being to interesting to the general reading public (whoever you are if you still read this). Also I will be playing PLO HILO which most people don't really know so even the hands wont be interesting and max 2/4 so the stakes wont be too interesting....

Anyway I intend to use this as diary/motivational tool. So don't expect anything too exciting for the rest of this year.

At present I am in the States (Georgia). the weather is nice and my brother works as an Assistant Pro at a good golf club so has been lots of free golf. He also lives in a massive house (5 bedrooms) in a nice area. Makes you realise what you can do with your easily made poker money......

Anyway my target is to put in 20,000 PLO Hilo hands between 1/11 and 25/12. I had around $2500 lying around in stars which I have grinded up to $5000 + I will deposit some cash in ipoker say $1000 when I get back. so my target is to get that $6000 up to at least $14,000 but hopefully $20,000.

Update I played 1450 hands today for a profit of $1,600 so a good start.

Good luck to Ludovik in teh main event. Really supporting him as he is an excellent exciting player. Dont fancy his chances much now he is short but if he gets chips I will bet him to win as hes so aggressive.

Been in vegas, was fun will update laters.

Anyway lets all read through my fav hand ever v luko!
