June Wrap-up

June 2010 wrap-up

A very solid month indeed. I definitely feel like my game is solid for the 24s-36s. Now i have a new biggest winning month and my first 2k month! I managed to claw back $1k in slansky dollars so im not only 400 under ev at these BIs lifetime. Not too worried about that gap, i ran into a lot of monsters and i think im playing well. Really happy with my $/hr, hope to keep that steady over the next few months. Did well in my exams, think i passed everything, just waiting on the results now. Going on a little 3 night holiday tomorrow; getting massaged and all that relaxing stuff... should be gooooood.

Review of May Goals!

• [] maintain gold iron man
  
• [] only play 2 sets per day to maintain iron man (epic fail lol)
  
• [] dont procrastinate and study hard for my exams (i procrastinated a lot, but i think i passed lol)
  
• [] pass my last semester at uni (waiting on results)
  
• [] make a few coaching videos (decided it wasnt really worth it)
  
• [] maybe pick up 1 more student (might be getting 1 more soon)
  
• [] put together my resume and send out some graduate job applications (fail... going to have to do that this month though)

Procrastinating...

im bored at uni (should be studying) so i decided to do a quick blog update.

Im having a lot of fun this month in poker. Ive started mixing in 36s with the 24s to get some more volume. Often the 24s are rediculously reg-filled and I can load up some fishy 36s instead. so i table select between both limits to fill my sets. Seems to be working nicely so far.

I havent been playing all that much due to exams but im running at 7% so far which is nice. Hopefully i can keep it up and finally cement myself in these limits. Next month is my 12th month playing SnGs seriously so im going to do a big review with a lot of helpful information for all you grinders out there lurking my blog, so keep an eye out for that!

Im also well on track to make my $10k in 10k games and with any luck next month could be the month to hit that next milestone.

Its been an awesome ride so far and im still learning more and more every day.

Keep ur eye on this space for some pretty epic updates in the next weeks.

2 assignments and 4 exams this month. going to be a very low volume month. still going to play enough to maintain iron man (to give myself a study break and maintain my sanity). but my priority is exams this month. also a few hrs per week for coaching but thats about it pokerwise.

after 5.5yrs at university im almost finished not looking forward to getting a job.. fuck that
