Busy month

Wow it's been about 6 weeks since I last updated, and I should have a lot to talk about...

... but I've barely played. I was away on holiday for 2 weeks in August. I went to Greece for a week with the girlfriend and ate thousands of kebabs, and then I had a week in France with family and played lots of table-tennis. This obviously meant I had little time for poker.

Since coming back I've been studying pretty hard as I have an exam on Monday. Actually a lot of the material I've been trying to learn is to do with calculating the variance of cashflows - that could come in handy... I'm actually on a study day today, trying to do some last-week cramming but I keep finding distractions (I've watched the video of Annette 15 taking down a 180-manner without looking at her cards and scoured iPlayer for anything good to watch already today).

When I have played I have not done well. I tried to continue my 4-tabling plan that I started a few months ago but kept getting up to $500, moving up to $100nl and getting crushed. I did this 2 or 3 times and then went through a bad spell at $50nl and gave up that crappy idea. For the last week or so I've been back on PKR - you just can't beat it! Over the very small amount of hands I've played I've been crushing it, so hopefully after Monday that will continue and I can finally get this Vegas bankroll up and running before the big trip. So overall over the last 6 weeks I think I've won about $200 or so but I also had to withdraw a few hundred because PartyPoker starting charging me for me having money in my account - pretty cheeky! So overall the bankroll ~ $5,360
