June 2009 some updates and how things are going

Has been a while since I have posted but thought I'd give an update of how things in my poker world are going.

Last month was so so. This month started off very well running about 5-6PTBB/100 for first 20K hands. Then thought I'd play some 1/2 to see how the games are.

Turns out that the games suck! and I suck at the games :D so after some ups and downs I think it is best to advoid the level unless any good tables are running. It would seem after the run bad/sucking at 200NL I get kicked in the teeth at my current level as well. Seems anyone that calls my 3bets is always going to out draw me and any time I am an 82% fav pre flop the flop will be the flop you need to win. Any time I bluff I am called down, any time I have near nutted hand they find a fold. I dunno if I am that transparant or what? I try to be fairly balanced but turns out they always find a fold when I have it and a call when I don't, really plays badly with your confidence. Anyways my plan is to not move up until I find my skill level vastly exceeds my stakes (obv not near that ATM) . I will also move up if I find any really good games and not let the level I play dictate. Basically I'm rarely going to play above100nl because the rewards are no where near as good for me, but I don't mind sitting in if I find a table with a couple of spew monkeys.

I need to find a way to not tilt so much, it is by far the greatest challenge. I have been relatively good at quitting yet still not quite fast enough. must have lost about 5-10 BI from tilt alone this month. I really want to push out a 4K month at some point (not including bonuses) and have yet to do so :( well that is my aim at the moment.

Oh also for the 2nd half of month so far, my red line has just gone right down. I think I have been running like ass in every spot possible. Its been really abnormal considering it has been really straight for about 70-90 K hands then just goes down for the last 20K. Might have to start tightening up in some spots.

GL god bless and hope y'all 2+2 ers gave a great month.
