Month 2: Week 4 Completion

Ok this is more like it. It again threatened to turn sour on the last day of the week when i slipped to nearly 5 buyins down when i was on the end of what felt like infinite wrong side of the coinflicks with shorties along with some bad beats like worser 2 pair, flush beaten by FH you get the drift. I felt sick but i kept my cool and didnt tilt hoping to make 1 or 2 buyins back and make another respectable but disappointing week only to hit some great variance helped along by a couple of donks and i ressurected the 5 buyin loss to a +0.75 buyin profit for the day. Never got so much satisfaction from such a small overall profit.

Anyway i think my game has came on leaps and bounds thanks to all the posting, questions,reading and watching videos and also lately from a video session i posted on boards.ie and got some great feedback, well worth the effort. I still think this is close enough to my peak because i still have a few leaks, i can see myself being between a 3-5bb/100 player at this level but no higher over a large sample. Im always looking to improve my game and i hope i can myself from more reading/posting but i think to move to the next level in terms of improving my BB/100 i will need some coaching but ill have to put it on the long finger for now as i want to be playing the 100NL before i decide to get coaching.

Im hopeful i can keep up the good work and within 2-3 weeks i will have a bankroll sufficent enough to move up. My Minumum Bankroll will be $2500, its currently $1600 so $800 more to go, thats doable within 2 weeks but ill settle for 3 weeks.

Anyway the thing that matters. Results:

9,194 Hands Played 50NL
Profit +$337.52
BB/100 3.67
V$PIP 25%
PFR 19%
Post Flop Aggro 3.8
Showdowns Won 47%
Rakeback $199

Total Profit $536.52
Approx 30 Hours: Approx $18 per Hour

As you can see my V$PIP is increasing now to a level im happy with thats mostly because im stealing more and im comfortable with it now because im happier with my post flop play. I also increased my PFR as i now raise from the SB a bit whereas i used to just complete. My stealing % is now 43% up from 34% the previous week.

So until next week..........
