I started the month with about a $110 downswing so I decided to take August and try to really try to work out kinks in my game and not just try to play a certain amount of hands and not think everything through. I played NL 5 trying new things every week in order to get enough hands in to see if what i was doing would work or not.

Near the end of the month I got my stats to be closer to what I feel comfortable playing, although the stats are not reflected in the screen shot with the NL5 stats. I also worked on how to play what form each position and found out what works once again. I feel very comfortable coming into September with my game plan and the results should be good this month and I would like to be at NL 25 pretty soon.

You really need to open your game up and be less of a NIT imo. Play more in late position. Regardless, you shouldn't be losing at these stakes playing this nitty, your winrate should just suck.

it did this month, I don't want to make excuses but I was getting hit with bad streaks more than usual, (like $43 below EV) and I wasn't focused on winning this month. That might sound stupid but I had a big bonus to clear from FTP so that made me break even. I played this level a while ago and cruised through it but wanted to go back and make sure I have a solid foundation fro moving up.

I did pay off a lot of hands this month mainly due to being a tard but also because I couldn't believe that the one card that hit was the card that was needed.
