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. |

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. |
