This is, by far, the most hands I've ever played in a month. 95 hours of poker, at around 950 hands / hour. Given that I played so much, my results leave a lot to be desired. My overall BB/100 was about half of what I averaged last year.

The graph is pretty humorous, I think. The first half of the month involved going on 2k hand heaters, and then slowly dribbling away a good portion of the profits over the next 4k-6k hands. This happened on five separate occasions, with the last being a much more dramatic $9,000 downswing. The second half of the month involved an unusually variance-heavy ride upwards.

Looking back at other months where I ended up with similar overall BB/100s, this is the 'choppiest' graph of the bunch. Choppy = excessive variance = emotional turmoil.

(Some of you guys might counter that this really isn't that bad over a 90k sample of hands. All I can tell you is that it felt awful.)

I trully believe that between 46k and 52k it must have felt like a nightmare. Overall very impressive month result, GL.

Trust me, I am a poker player.

Yes must of been terrible to have only made 10k for 45 hours work.

It's very relative. When you expect to make almost twice that amount in 45 hours of work it means you probably experienced some pretty horrendous beats / coolers.

Obviously it's hard to complain too much about a 20k month, though.
