And back to the happy side of variance

After 2 weeks off to study my game (a few leaks to plug re light shoves), I had a 20 game session today. The biggest issue that I found hard to handle, was when I hit 4 final tables at once. Guess it's something I can get used to.

Games: 20
Final Tables: 9
Cashes: 9
Heads Up: 5
Wins: 4
BI: $180
Profit: $342
ROI: 190%



January Stats:
Games Played: 76
Games Remaining: 123

Avg BI: $7.10
ROI:28%

I don't like this side of variance

Played a 30 game session. It was a mix of 45 and 180 man turbos. Either nothing held or I ran big hands into bigger hands.

Highlights:

Ran JJ into AA
AA gets run over by KJ
KK < QQ
Had to fold AA on a KJQ flop, when it went c-bet/raise/reraise/me crying like a little girl.

On to the next set. I've got to break out of this soon.

Stats so far for January

Games Remaining: 146

Avg BI: 6.57

I think I have to go back to 6 tabling for a bit.

Platinum Star January Goal

My goal for January is a simple one.

Play 200 games with an average buy-in of $9.00.
That's a 3:1 mix of $7.00 and $15.00

Quest for Platinum Star

In 2011, I got much better at playing the 45 mans up to $7 and multitabling them. In order to get out of my BR nittiness, I've decided that for 2012 to provide myself an incentive.

I will achieve Platinum Star (which I have never done) at least once in 2012 playing only 45/180 man turbos. This means that I'll needing to play at the $30 level (or I'd slit my wrists) at some point in the year.

This blog will record my progress throughout the year.
