Golden Part II

I decided to start a little Br thread/Blog to keep me motivated and focused.
As of now I'm playing $60-$100 HUSNGs 2-3 tables at a time. Taking shots at $200 and $300 if i see weaker players. I'm dabbling in super turbos at lower stakes for practice $15 3-4 tables at a time, not enjoying it lol too much variance! Playing on stars btw

Not sure if i should do daily or weekly updates(thoughts?)

This was my previous bank roll thread when i first started:

weekly .. daily tends to make one result orientated in my experience

gl man your doing great

Good Luck mate, hope it works out for you, you deserve it for all your hard work.

P.S

leave the hypers alone they = brain damage

GL golden! Superturbos are mean variance, but apparently an roi of more then 1%+ is good i've heard...

Super turbo's=death, will only play them if action is super dead. Will also talk about books I'm reading at the moment( non poker related) mostly about the markets and investing. This week I'm reading "liar's poker" by Michael Lewis" (how ironic). Almost 1/2 through the book, great read so far. Its about a bunch of 25-30 bond traders making tons of $$, and they love to degen it up playing a game called  "liars poker" betting 1-10 million on one hand, sick!  So give me your book recommendations/ books your reading.

poker related?

Reading Kill Everyone a book on MTT strategy - really really good for a newb like me which was recommended on here - makes me want to switch but no time to play poker:(.......read devil fishes autobiography - not bad!

I might get one of a kind about stu unger - supposed to be a really good read...

Nope non poker related, just a game these investors used to play, doesn't envolve a deck of cards but notes(paper money) and their serial codes. Try to make to best hand with the numbers you have, or bluff. The Book isn't a poker related.

Oh right. Sounds like an interesting read. Completely crazy what some people will gamble on.

Diceman by Luke Rhinehart is a good read. Semi-autobiographical about this guy who decides to live his life by the throw of a dice was pretty entertaining..

Gonna go ahead and just give an update now, as we're already 2 weeks into the month. Really swingy so far, was running like crap at the beginning of the month, but it's getting better. RB is saving me Smile Graph includes some hypers , as well as a few Euro games. I'll be playing the $215 HUMTT tomorrow, came in 8th for a lil <1K, hopefully that goes well.

WORST MONTH EVER

Title says it all, don't think i've ever ran this bad, guess i was due. Bonus+RB is really saving me. dropped down to 60's for a lil while so i can recuperate. Anyways here's my graph for 27 days so far.

I think the most important thing for me was to put in for volume/ adding more tables, playing a ton of regs, working on my end game.

SHITTY MONTH"S CONTINUE!

I think the reason i haven't been updating often is because my lack of success in the past month or so. It sucks coming here to write about all the bad stuff that's happening, but i think im gonna start embracing it, and all of you can dwell in my misery with me Smile

This month has been kinda shitty to start off, but we're only 5 days in. Been putting a lot of time in studying/reviewing so hopefully that will help me.

Played the 215 HUMTT... busted, but was staked. Friends wanted to buy some of my action so only had 25%. Then came on the hypers lol which they also wanted action, didn't run to well in those. Total damage came to around 600+/4

My sharkscope graph is pretty much useless now as it doesn't represent all the staking/4 mans.

Turbo's/Regspeeds (didn't play for the first 2 days)

It Continues

It's been a very tough 1.5 months for me. I feel like i'm not making any progress at all (in poker). Every time i have a few good sessions, the bad ones roll along behind them. I've been learning a ton though. Finding a bunch of leaks in my game, so hopefully i can turn things around for the rest of the month.

I'll keep chugging along Smile

Nice work mate, I never had any doubt at all that you'd get through a little rough spell.

Much more interested in the super nova target.  Shocked

Good luck, I'll be following.
