Hey guys whats up

Soo May is almost over and it will def go down as my worst month of my short poker career. I am down about 10/15BI overall even though I feel like I am improving everyday. Instead of being ridiculously angry at losing so much ( which I was before) Im starting to realize that it is only going to make me work that much harder to get to the next level. I want to be the best poker player I can and I am going to do everything I can to be that player. I am completely confident that my downswing is short term and Im ready to move past it.
On another note, I got my prom this week and then maddddd afterprom partying/ chillin at the beach and drinking all weekend so that should be awesomeeeeee. Anyways hope all the monies I am losing to donks is making its way into LPers hands

GL at the tables,

Hey

Havent played a whole lot this last week but after my shitty start to May I have been slowly turning things around. I have also started to take on some low limit students to help bring their game along. I know I had a couple positive influences that really helped me when I was down below 100nl and Id like to return the favour. I also think I have a lot to offer to the student and I beleive that I will learn a thing or too as well when I am teaching. Anyways here is last weeks graph.

I def have some leaks in my game that really need fixed..only problem is I cant figure out what they are lol. Last 2/3 days Ive played like 3500 hands or so for -1400...Heres the real problem though


As you can see in the last 3400 hands or w/e I have been staked twice and stacked other ppl twice..wtf is that?? And I am down 7BIs..like there is def a hugeeee leak somewhere. Im def going to look into lessons from someone like 3/6+ and try to turn my game around b/c I am really not happy w/ where it is right now...anyways here is my total May graph.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/186653 - so hard to make myself fold turn idk


http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/186654 - considered raising on the flop but decided Id rather see the turn...I dont think I want to get AI on flop 260BBs deep or w/e

All in all I wasnt too impressed with my april...I did not play as many hands as I would have liked and I just felt like I wasnt focused the whole month...In 200nl I played like shit for the most part and didnt run too well either...I did own FTP HU cash running at like 28PT BB in 2/3k hands. Small smaple size obv but still good moniesss. So in cash games I ended up about 2k which is not that great.. I played in maybe 2/3 donkaments and FTd 2 of them so I was up about 2500 in MTTs.Turbo SnGs I played like shit in the beginning of April but played very well towards the end but I think I was down a little overall. So all in all a decent month, prob just over 4k/ But I am looking to have a huge May and hopefully get 25/30k hands of 200nl in as well.





As you can see the graph is pretty ugly lol..and I was not pleased at all that I played like 16k hands in 200nl for 600$ profits -_-...Def reeady for a huge Mayy

GL peace

So I decided to play an MTT last night b/c a couple ppl had requested I make a vid of an MTT. So I did and came in 7th in the first MTT I had played in over a month for about 700 or 800$..Not a lot but it was ok. So today I was playing kinda ugly in cash game so I played the 22R&A and FTd that for 3rd place and just under 2k. I felt like the play in these was just horrible. I felt like I was a little rusty in my MTT play but still found both tournies really easy. The 50$ I was crippled when a EP limp/called my raise w/ KK then CRAI on the flop and showed up with AA. Im not having a great start to April in ring games though as I am only up about 1BI in 200NL...But I am sure that will turn around soon.. GL at the tables

OK I know I just made a post but I ran super hot to end March that I had to post them...coming into March my goal by April was to make it to 1/2...well I did that eearly in March which was nice..
I feel my play this month has really come a long way and I feel like I am on my way to becoming a very succesful poker player.A couple days ago I said I wanted to finsih out March up 3500$. Well the last two days have just been sick and I am up a very nice amount. If I win the same amount in April playing all 200nl I will be ready for 400nl a month earlier than expected which would be very nice. Anyways here is my March graph and PT numbers





Thanks,
