After losing WCGUK to Midian (again lol) I finally threw in the towel with Starcraft and decided to give poker a real shot. I got pretty good at microstakes around Christmas but hadn't really played since then because I got absolutely owned in January and lost half my roll. I'd cashed out most the rest and just left $120 in there. So I started poker again 17 days ago with $120 playing 2nl. I gave myself a 4 tables max rule because my 12 table style was high variance and low skill and I didn't feel I'd improve with it.
I spent like 5 days getting to $200 on 2nl because I was 4 tabling and I suck at 2nl. Once there I spent 9 days (including 3 days off to turn 20) to get to $500. Once there I spent 3 days getting to $1000. I'd only ever been to 50nl once before and I got completely owned so I was really quite nervous about it. Especially because I believe that I'm not really owning anywhere near as much as the results suggest, I'm just luckboxing. Anyway, after speaking to Midian and Ket I decided 20 buyins = move up. Long story short, I ran like God.
I'd like to thank Ket and Midian because moving up went v well so I'm a fair amount better off thanks to them. I'd also really like to thank Artanis and Silver because having them around to sweat me, review my hands, show me interesting spots, talk through theory with me, argue over playstyles and give their opinions are pretty much the only reason I'm any good at this game. I can't thank the two of them enough for always being willing to make me a better player, regardless of how demanding or whiney I am.
So, the graph. :D

this is a pretty sick brag to move up so fast :D graph looks nice and consistent too, you must have developed a decent edge without me noticing 8D love the NL50 asymptote |

Had to look up the word. It is indeed appropriate though. I was running at nearly 4 big blinds a hand.
Doomswitched now though, I knew a brag blog would do this. |
