Shipped Monday High Roller on ipoker.com! :)

I had a clear goal for August after I got a bit lazy with poker in the last month (mainly due to good wheater, football, etc) : win 10k €, plain and simple.

I played a lot of tourneys so far this month, a bit less cash games, went close to a good result way to many times and then got sick beats, I also shipped a couple of small tournaments (just good enough to cover buy ins of other tourneys though).

This game is so sick at times!

Title says it all, one day you feel a hero, the following you feel shit....I had a terrible run at 2/4 (and took some shots at 5/10 HU), I don't think I played particularly bad, I actually think my game is improving and I really would like to play 5/10 regularly by the end of 2010, but this week has been a psicological killer! Still up +70k € for 2010, but if I don't run better in the remaning months I won't be able to reach my 100k € goal, or even worse I could loose more money, and that would suck big time!

On a 10k downswing - time to re-organize!

Since my last blog entry I took a little break and went for a long weekend to Portugal to enjoy the sun, when I came back things didn't change and everything has been going downhill. This is by a long shot the biggest downswing of my life....-10k € . Obviously I feel pretty sick about it, but I actually look at the future with optimism.
This happens to everyone, sometimes you run above EV (see March/April), sometimes on EV (January & July for example) and sometimes way under EV (May and August).
