A Few Brief Sessions

Haven't had too much time to play in the past few days. Played a 23 hand session Friday and profited a tidy $3.12 (I believe I win in the dollars-per-minute category). Played a similarly short 105 hand session this evening and netted $4.87. No extraordinary hands. I've been playing (for the most part) patiently and doubling up through the tilty maniacs.

Overall, the 'roll is now at $133.18....having played 4509 hands. Happy with that, and haven't had a losing day since Jan. 18. Here's hoping the Eeyore graph trajectory remains the same....

Congrats! That’s amazing. Take a look at my post that I just put up and see what it’s like on the other end of the scale.

Nice run man, keep it up.

I have a couple of observations. Start planning for 2 things:

1. Moving up in stakes. Your nitty style will definitely take you through this stage of the Challenge. You can still generally find enough fish to pay you off even when you are playing tight here, but as you go up, it changes.

This means you need to experiment, work on your leaks, and continue to improve your game.

2. Downswing. One product of your current online style is that it generally puts a lot of emphasis on relatively few hands. Basically I just mean that you aren't getting it all in very often, but you aren't running over the table for free money either. If you lose some of those all-ins it can make for a nasty downswing.

Being prepared for that possibility is going to help keep you playing tight and solid.

Great work overall dude, your graph is ridiculous.
