Mid Month Blues

Monday, October 19th, 2009
It never seems to fail. Things go awesome at the start of the month and then after a few weeks, the wheels seem to fall off. I am now down $450 from my highs and lost all of this within 1 week! I have decided to take a break from poker until the weekend to let my frustrations cool off and get back to some web development which I have been interested in working on again.
When I return from my hiatus, I am going to setup a new mini challenge for myself. I call it the heads up challenge 100 rally. I plan to play 100 heads up matches. My goal is to achieve a success rate of 70%. I'm not sure how long this will take but it should be a nice change… Read More

September 2009 – Summary

Saturday, October 3rd, 2009
Another month has gone by and once again fall is starting to arrive. I have been doing the challenge now for over 10 months and everything is still going nice and steady. I did have a record breaking month for earnings but they were still solid with just over $200 added to my bankroll.
Cake Poker has once again started to become my friend again like the old days. I am now comfortably playing $0.50/$1.00 cash games with up to 6 tables. This game is much looser than the lower stakes tables and there are some great opportunities to have some serious gains.
I played a lot on Full Tilt again this month with unfortunately a negative return.… Read More
