"I need to loosen up, loosen up

I need a little juicin up

I´ve been hangin from the noose

Baby won´t you cut me loose

Come on everybody loosen up"

Loosen Up, Winger


It's been a big month for me. I had my biggest losing day ever, my biggest winning day ever from cash games and I moved up a level. As the graph shows, it's been a pretty good month. I have lost about $50 on MTTs and hands that haven't imported properly, so overall I won about $780 and ran at 6.43 BB/100. I'm very pleased with this. Since the last update I continued to play at $100NL and won a bit, but so far I have ran at 3.7 BB/100 at $100NL, not great.
June
I have set myself a target for June - I have to have a VP$IP of atleast 20% and my PFR% has to be atleast 3/4 of my VP$IP. I am just way too tight and need to loosen up. I think at the lower levels you can get away with playing as tight as you like as people generally don't understand or aren't paying attention. But as I move up I am going to have to stop being so predictable, especially as my instinct is to tighten up as I go up levels. Normally at $50NL I have played with stats of about 15/12, but at $100NL they dropped too 13/10. This could still be profitable, but it won't be for much longer. So, unless I run really well, I will drop back down to $50NL and try to play a lot looser, and hopefully even more profitably.
A hug.

Update - This is going to be harder than I thought! I just played my first session and thought I was a loosey-goosey but my stats were only 18/14!

It's simple mate, first write what you want your link to say, example "biggest pot of the month". Then highlight the text that you want to be your link, whilst it is highlighted, click the add link button, then past the url in, and that should be your link!

I agree with loosening up, its imperative in my opinion otherwise people know what u have every time u raise etc. And you get paid off more with your big hands. Also if you raise 'trashy' hands and hit the flop hard its hard for people to put u on a hand, try 3 betting big from the SB with 73c sometimes, standard 7 3 2 flop, its really fun!
