Not putting in nearly enough hours to get going on having a big year...but coaching ends in 2 weeks so I'm still optimistic about what's ahead. Plan on having a decent month and grinding my way out of small stakes SNG/MTT land.


January results:
SNGS: 226 SNGs played (all $6.50s), +$26.80, 1.8% ROI, 37.6% ITM
MTTs: 38 MTTs played, -$249.48, -68.8% ROI, 13.2% ITM
Live cash: 1 session 1/2 NL +$471, 1 session 2/5 NL -$709
Overall: -$460.68

February goals:
500 SNGs
50 MTTs
Profit at both
Maintain the Silverstar i squeaked into lols

GL dudes...hope to be back on my feet soon and see people are reasonable non cheeseburger stakes.

OTHER GAMBLING
• Have positive year gambling in other games (mainly my roulette degenning)

Soooo I'm pretty tired of being a huge loser in cash games online and have decided to turn around my PTR and get every limit out of the red. I clearly have leaks that I need to work to fix so I'll be studying more HHs and watching some videos online. No more following bad habits and telling myself I'm just perpetually running bad.

I'm very confident in my tourney game currently and a couple of scores have saved me from busto in the last month or two. Won the $22 6 max on Stars this week to accomplish that again.

I would play tournaments more but it's really difficult to find the time when I work odd hours 30-40 hours a week. Cash games are way more convenient time wise so I need to get some stuff straight. Here's to doing that.

Will keep updates on the hopefully purtty after picture.
