May 6th

Still running like garbage but getting (slightly) better. I did lose with the nut-flush vs a straight flush today for the first time (I think?) tho so that kinda sucked.

Bankroll is still down a little from my peak but it could have been much much worse the way things went the last few days so I'm hoping the small downswing has worked it's way out and I can get back on track now.

Playing profits: $400 ($550 EV) in 34K hands.
RB/Bonus: $583
Overall BR: $1483

My hourly right now is about $28/hr which is decent for the lower stakes but I'm ready to get back to 100 & 200nl soon and start making serious money again. 10 BIs to go before we move on up.

First Bad Day

I honestly can't remember ever being coolered as often and as bad as I have been today. Literally every single time I had a big hand against a fish they somehow stumbled onto the nuts. Not to mention that I had about 100 pocket pairs and the only time I flopped a set and got beyond a cbet, my opponent had top set. Sooooo irritating.


Gross.

I've been working a ton on my emotional control lately and I have to say I survived today with minimal damage...especially compared to 6-12 months ago when I would have probably jumped off a roof by now. Definitely very frustrated but I see a pretty massive improvement in my tilt control so I'm going to try to focus on that and come back strong next time.

Nobody said this would be easy...unfortunately.

Overall BR:

May is Underway

Decent start to the month, made about 6 buyins in 2K hands today and that's after running 2BI below expectation so not bad.  1-2 more days like this and I'll already be able to move up to 100nl. Keep your fingers crossed.
