I won't be posting my graph because I'm lazy and this is not a results blog anyway, but rather a brief reflection.
Resultswise I played 50nl/25plo/50plo and ran bad early on in the month. I started redeeming my month a week and a half ago and ended up -$150. I did pick up $150 from the LP BBP rakerace so I'm up for the month after bonuses and rakeback.
This month, I've taken up a real life SC1 friend as a poker student. I've also staked him a $200 starting bankroll even though he has very minimal experience. I'm usually very conservative about these types of ventures but I have a lot of faith in him because he can put in the hours and was B+ on ICCup. This will a fun personal challenge for me and by the end of it I'll have some decent coaching experience as well as the satisfaction of my friend's success. I'm going to start putting in hands for my HU bumhunting stake starting this weekend so that should also be interesting.
Originally, that's all I was planning to do with poker this September. I've been actively trying to get involved in a lot more student organizations at my university. I was gonna cut down on poker and make the most of my sophomore year developing my networking and leadership skills. However, FTP is making me reconsider with a $500 bonus and only 21 days to clear it. It's a bit frustrating but I guess I can fit in some time to clear as much of it as I can.
On that note, I don't have any money on FTP atm so I'm looking to transfer 1k from stars to FTP sometime next week (however my pokerstars transfer limit is still at its minimum and I emailed them to increase my transfer limit but they declined so wtf). If anybody can give me more information on that, I would greatly appreciate it.
ugh this month is going to be a sick test of time management
