I shouldn't have said anything...



So another 'unlucky' month for me. The graph shows what I should've 'won' this month if my all-in luck was neutral compared to what I did 'win'. Pretty annoying. Overall I played about 14k hands, of which only about 2.5k were at $100nl. In these $100nl hands I lost nearly $800, which has really pissed me off and made me feel like dropping back down to $50nl. Overall I played at 22/17 which is pretty good, but the results are not. So overall I lost $545 on the imported hands but won nearly $90 on hands that didn't import and got about $190 in rakeback to make a -$270 month, which isn't too awful but I feel I've played ok, maybe not my best but good enough to have a winning month.



Since I wrote 2 months ago about how I have never been that unlucky, this is how the graph has gone. That's about 15 buy-ins down. Pretty sucky.






Hand of the month - Standard for this month. I gave him the option of a free turn but he was pretty agressive so I thought I could check-raise. That bit worked out...



So, the aim of this month is to keep playing well and hope the luck changes (not looking good at the moment, I'm already over $200 down for the month, half bad luck (KK < QQ) and half bad situation (KK v AA).



Bankroll - $4970

Tough month...just watching those hands sent me on tilt. I'm sure you'll win it back though. One question- Don't understand the graph, what do the two lines mean?
Second question: Back this week. Are you around?

Hey furbs, well done on the triathlon, very good effort! The darker line is what I actually won and the lighter line is what I should have won of average, so if you get all-in as an 80% favourite pre-flop for a $100 pot, the light line will go up by $80 whether you win the hand or not. So long term you light-line should match your dark line. Annoying. Yeah i'm around, when you back? Got any plans? x
