Through combination of play, consolidation, and planning, I have amassed a decent amount of money on Pokerstars over the last month. Enough that I am considering making that final push toward having a stable bankroll, something I am hoping to achieve by the end of March. While this does include live play (and that bankroll [...]
Day 25 was a wash because my girlfriend came home and I had a lot of errands to run as a result.
So I’m rolled for 2NL finally, and took a dumb luck beating in the first 100 hands. Realizing that this wasn’t working out, I decided to take a chance and start playing 20FL because, [...]

Clawed my way back a little bit yesterday, and ran decent today in $1 SnG, though I did lose some of it in a horrid series of 10FL hands. Hopefully with the new year coming I can re-dedicate myself to playing the 5 hours a day I set for myself, but I’m kind of enjoying [...]
Doing the same thing as I did in the $0.25 level when I just started out. Played a lot, was down a lot, then scrapped together a rally to lose by only a buy-in.

Just the stats today. Needless to say didn’t play much yesterday, rallied back from a hideous start to end barely up. Today I played the World Record tourney (failed) and one $1 SnG (bubbled) because I reached $35 earlier today. Unless I fall back down to $25, I’ll be playing more SnGs than limit hold’em [...]
It didn’t take very long for my computer to act up enough for me to decide to just abandon the idea of playing poker while I am back home. It’s gonna hurt my pacing a little bit, but with the following week me being back home by myself, I probably will be able to more [...]
Last day that I can really get a solid day in before I head home and use my laptop (which has the reliability equal to having no signal on your cell phone…the laptop anyway). And I did more than erase yesterday’s deficit. I actually got some ground back and then some, posting a tidy profit. [...]
Can’t run good forever. This is especially true when I made consistently poor decisions when I knew my opponent had to have the 2nd-nuts, just cause i figured I could cooler to the nuts. As I learned though, only players that play against me can do that, I have actually rely on some skill every [...]
Its worth noting I played nowhere near enough hands for any of this to be statistically relevant compared to some of the online gurus, but I suppose it’s worth showing the states of how I did in a particular limit/tourney level:
2/4 cent FL:
$0.10+0 Tourneys:
$0.25 + 0 tourneys:
