Close to a target...




Not a bad month. I played like a bit of a dweeb and got fairly lucky (about $200 up in luck) but I ended the month up $725 and made another $155 through rakeback. At one point I was on $990 total and I really wanted a $1000+ month but it wasn't to be. That's my target for the next few months though!

This month I've been very busy with work and studying and so when I did play poker I often didn't have much time and wasn't feeling my A game. Because of this I played quite a few sessions at lower levels this month. Overall I played about 6k hands at $100nl, running at 9.7 BB/100, and I'm particularly pleased because I loosened up even further, playing 20/16.5 this month. I think it was in May last year when I said I would try and play with a VP$IP of over 20 and it's taken me 8 months but I'm finally there! The other 7k hands were mostly dossing around at $25nl where I ran at 27/22.

I'm still going to be very busy this month but I will try to play more $100nl as I'm still not completely comfortable with this level yet and that only come from playing thousands of hands.

Hand of the month - I think I played it very standard and just got the perfect turn - any comments?

Targets - obviously I want to break that $1000 mark but I would be happy with a month where I play well, run at over 20 VP$IP again and then the winning should follow.
