So basically April started off great, wanted to play a shitload of hands and i did, i didnt' even have a full month to play. (I only had 3 out of the 4 weeks of this month to play.), i also found time to slam in 200 11$ turbo sngs as well over a few sessions.
April started off great as i said before, pulled off a few huge bluffs in a couple seshs vs the same regulars and was able to start getting paid on my monsters using the same lines as said bluffs, everything felt like it was clicking and i knew i was bound for 100nl soon, using a 22-24BI rule. I went to toronto for a fun vacation and to fuck around for 7 days, and came back refreshed and ready to crush 100nl. But in order to warm up, i thought i'd do a fun 50nl warm up session.
it was not to be
I ended up getting murdered for an entire week, set over set, losing 70 30's , 90 / 10's, etc etc. I would look at HEM3 and die inside at the +EV graph vs $$ gained graph. I was basically running horrendous and was on the verge of imploding when i looked back at some people's comments to just play through it and focus on DECISIONS, not results. It's easier to say you will follow it, but until you hit a brutal downswing it's a HUGE testament to one's determination / character / focus. I'm glad to say i survived through it. Looks like 100nl will have to wait another week or so, but i feel that i've recovered mentally, and it's only a matter of time before i get back up there.
Brag: played 50k hands + 200 sngs in 3 weeks , most ive ever played ever
Beat: Last 30k hands of said 50k were horrendous losing / break even, but towards the tail end i regained confidence in my ability to play. made +250$ or so in SNG's
Variance: I HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH RAKEBACK IM GETTING BUT IM HOPING ITS ALOT D:. I've found my sweet spot is 10 tabling FR. 14-16 was too much to make optimal value, and 8 is too boring.
May Goals-
Short term: 2.2k BR > take a shot at 100 nl , move down after losing 2 bi
Mid term: Become 100nl reg by end of may
Long term: 1/2 by end of june / start of july? one time!
Focus focus focus

i took shots at 2k as well and did a 2 bi stop loss. Just make sure you dont play scared money. I had 2 move down twice before I was a 100nl reg. gl |

it sounds to me like overall you are trying to move up too fast, and too heavily based on your bankroll, instead try to improve your skill advantage over the game and move up based on how strongly you feel that you are dominant in your stake with bankroll as a secondary motivation (but obviously DO practice good management!) |
