Just Finished my Last Final

summer is finally here. hopefully i can have a good start and start putting in some volume soon. i haven't done well in the past couple months now. below is my graph since my last post, april 28th til now.

at least i'm on an upswing, hopefully that can keep going now. I'm sure in the next two weeks i will have put in more volume than the last month or so especially with this prop bet that i am running on May 18th.

I hate it when i don't know what the problem is

Been just 4 days or so since my last blog. i'm running like garbage, maybe a few bad plays once in awhile but i know i should be at least break even. been on this type of stretch for about a few months now.

solution?---volume,now til the end of the month my goal is to play 1,000 $20.80 DON's. i'm hoping to put myself back ontrack.

graph below is past 4 days or so since last blog.

Day 1 (1,000 DON's) continuous blog (update #3 or #4 )

In my previous blog i said i was going to try and play 1,000 DON's by the end of the month. this blog is to talk about todays games.

First session of 25 just ended.

first one i mede it to 6 handed my 88 lost to AK all in pre, i shoved. lost about every flip after that that i saw, couldn't win too much when i got it in pre and it mattered. my A couldn't beat pp's, their A beat my pp's.

I don't think i made a single bad play at all this first session, just running bad. going to go work out quick and get one more session of 25 in after a shower.

Day 2 (1,000 DON's) continuous blog

thought i'd try something different today and put a timeline on here, starting just before noon central time (united states) time.

11:34 shooting for at least 100 $20.80 don's today.

11:35 waiting to start signing up, waiting for a reg to finish.

11:41 level 1 only: 12,350 high score for me on google.com's pacman game on home page just finished.

11:42 just started signing up for my first session.

12:40 waiting for last two games to finish, looks like its going to be one win, one loss, which would put me up $40.

Day 3 (1,000 DON's) continuous blog (update with graph)

just wrapping up my first session of the day, i have 5 games left and am going to go positive. I'm not happy though. KK lost to JJ twice AIPF at the early levels, just busted in 6th 3 times when i shippe the best hand, some donk called (when he shouldn't) and beat me. from those 5 stories i should have at least an extra $160 this session. everyone of the plays was correct by me, just running bad at some of those, i can't be too mad though because i am still going positive, running good in the rest.

Day 4 and 5 (1,000 DON's)

Day 4 sucked. so many bad players calling ridiculously loose, obviously they always beat me. i quit after 3 sessions.

ended up playing the pokerstars $11 quarter mill with about 31,000 entrants. MY Aces lost for the second time in that tournament AIPF for an 80k pot against JJ, the other time my aces lost it was AIPF against JJ aswell. that knocked me down to 50k instead of being at 130k and was down to 10bbs then ended up busting in like 560th.

Day 5

Day 6 (1,000 DON's) Continuous Blog

first session of the day seemed to start out great, was six handed at a ton of tables, then it went bad, i bubbled my first 5 or so it felt like then i kept busting out of more, finished the session strong with a ton of wins and ended up positive $40.

going to go do laundry now Sad ....then i'll be back on.

2nd session down $40, just ran into a bunch of bad situations where i need to shove and they always have a better hand. AA lost to 1010 on bubble otherwise i break even.

Day 7 (1,000 DON's)

the reason i am doing this is because I have been running bad/playing bad/ who knows what else. I told myself i was going to play 1,000 by the end of the month for a few reasons.

1. this is the biggest reason, to show myself that i can still make money in DON's

2. to put in volume and make some money to boost my roll and work on getting back to the $52's.

3. to get better at DON's quickly

4. to make platinum status (currently after 2 sessions today need 1,137 more vpps)

Day 8 (1,000 DON's) & (beware of colluders)

I'll start off with posting a link to another grinders blog. http://daleroxxu.blogspot.com/
