Its been awhile since I've posted in this blog. I spent most of February studying for the bar exam, so I didnt get a chance to really do much. Despite that I did get a fair amount of hands in. Played about 6k hands, think I was an overall loser for the month, but due to Cake not allowing PT I dont know for sure.
Anyway, recently transferred some of my roll to Stars so I can get PT, PAHud and whatever else and actually start keeping track of my play and fixing some leaks. Thus far my biggest leak seems to be running horridly. In the 800 or so hands since I've been using PT, I've lost with AA 3/5 times, KK 3/4 times and QQ 4/4 times. Where the hell is my two week welcome back heater? I thought this was standard on stars. So, here I am, playing 2NL on stars and sucking ass. I can beat 20NL on cake, but not 2NL on stars, which is retarded. I'm quickly getting annoyed, as I seem to do every time I try to go back to Stars for any amount of time. I think I will stick it out this time though as I want to grind my way up on Stars just to prove to myself that I can. Eventually the running bad has to stop right?
On another note, I cashed out most of my roll from cake to pay some bills and what not as this has been a very, very expensive month for me. In addition to bar exam costs (almost 2 grand altogether), I've also had both parents, one sister and my girlfriend's birthdays this month and valentines day. And a couple of friend's birthdays too where we've gone out and spent money. I have pretty expensive habits and sometimes they catch up to me and put me in the hole for the month. This month with all the added expenses, I just felt like I needed a little financial boost so I cashed out almost everything I had on cake leaving me with a roll for 10NL but nothing more. So I guess that means time to really grind and build my roll back up so I can get to 25NL by the end of the month again.
My goals for March are to rebuild my roll and be at least close to 25NL. I have a lot of days where I wont be able to play this month, so not sure how many hands I will get in. However, I am learning that Stars is MUCH faster than Cake, so I should be able to get in a decent amount. I'll set my goal at 7k hands. We'll see what happens.
