v-v-v-variance fest

I ran good at 2/4 but got absolutely destroyed elsewhere, resulting in a mediocre 2ptbb winrate for the month of May. Not bad though, a week ago I was questioning as to whether or not I'd even profit on the month (that and where the FUCK my red line was going)..

+6k Cash Game
+~500 Donkaments
+2k Rakeback
= 8.5k on the month.

Taking the last couple days off, except for the Turbo Takedown (gonna win me a Cayman). I found out I have some cavities too, they don't hurt but I can see them, ugh. Haven't been to the dentist in like 6 years, no one ever told me I was supposed to keep going back for checkups, wtf mate?

So we're a month away from the half point mark of the year. The extent of 2009 has been what I'd considered myself an actual full time professional (although god knows I don't put in the hours of a true full time pro), after deciding to take an extended break from school. I have to say I'm satsified with how it's been going so far. I wanted to make 150k this year and I'm behind pace on that, but I'm up around 55-60k on the year already which is the amount I made in 2008. I feel like I can still hit 150k seeing as how at the beginning of the year I was playing mostly 1/2, and now I'm playing anything between 2/4, 3/6, and 5/10. I played 10/20 this month which was awesome as I was able to luckbox a stack, lolol. Additionally, I feel like my overall growth as a player just keeps making HUGE leaps and bounds each month I play and devote myself to the game. I think it's one thing to be able to play this game well, but it's another to be able to inherently understand the game and its psychological factors well. Mastery of both is probably the recipe to high stakes success.

Some interesting hands:
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/693802 - 4bet pot deep, two streets call down with bottom pair
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/696062 - Just a cute Q-hi hero call, not a big pot or anything though
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/697094 - 10/20 hand, always nice to 3bet bluff oop and flop the nizzles and cooler a reg

My June goals will pretty much be the same as my May goals. At least 40k hands and at least 5 digit income. I'd like to take this time to give a shout out to Bttech86/Ben86/Ben Tollerene whom I mentioned I was backing for his extensive WSOP schedule, as he's beginning that schedule now (today is Day 1 of WSOP series). I have 7.5% of him, so I hope he binks!

GL guys.
