Thursday results mixed
I started the afternoon playing and running pretty well. I got in 2 hours before dinner and ended up making about 3 buyins spread between 200 NL and 100 NL across Stars and Tilt, with the majority of the winnings at 200 NL in 500 hands.
Consequently, when I came back after dinner to get another 2 hour session in, I gave back nearly all of my gains. I feel like I played pretty well but the results were just catching up with my running well the rest of the month.
So when I came back I managed to drop over 3 buy ins, but I was lucky that I was losing the majority of buy ins at 100 NL and not 200 NL. I dropped 1 at 200 but lost 2 at 100 NL so I still managed to make a little bit of profit even though I finished down -24 BB. If I look at it in terms of buy ins it wasn’t a big deal, if I look at it moneywise it was very frustrating.
I feel good though, because I ran 165 BB below my expectation. Another good sign is that I made more money today without showdown than I did at showdown, which absolutely makes no sense.
In all my 4 hours of play today at 1500 hands I feel good and plan to continue to the schedule that I’ve made for the rest of the month. My goal is for 40 hours for the last 2 weeks of the month, and I’ve got 33 to go. I’ll have to keep my focus though if I really want to do it.
