April has been very good to me so far, hopefully I have a career month.
I read your blog. Agilitybob is such a joke. He plays as high as 10/20 HU and donks money off to Roberts constantly.

So I kinda forgot to post March results/April goals yes, and becuase I know must of you are eagerly awaiting with no further ado:

humm... So Feb was stupid in terms of actually running well, however after bonus and incentives, I finished at ~+$4,500.March goals:[ ] 30k hands.[ ] $7,500I think that is it. glgl me. glgl you.
About half way through the month and another fun downswong I was encurged to get back on the HU bandwagon. Poker has been pretty good on that side of the fence.However this did cause me to miss my goals for the month. But I am still fine with the results. And am looking foward to April.March-13.jpgApril Goals:20,000 hands. >10ptbb/100.

46ju8.jpgWell, this is only my 2nd losing day since March 1, but I set a record in the $$ amount lost.Sadly, this is the largest amount I've won OR lost playing HU and I usually like to keep the largest number for a winning day.$3000 swings downward are not fun.

Hi folks, it's me, the "New Years I'm gonna loose most of my BR to constant bad beats/coolers" playa!!! LOLI don't know what it is about the new year that completely tags me for all the bad luck, the same dang thing happened last year. I had a great Dec and followed it up with a horrible Jan. Just a terrible run of bad luck. Oh well, c'est la vie!!Anyway, I'm glad to report things are once again headed in the right direction. I was down to about $80 (from a high of just over $800). I fired up a sunday mil sat Last Thurs Night and won. I was up to a comfortable $290 after unregistering from the sunday mil for the $T, which gave me some welcome breathing room again.I entered the $5, 6 max tourney on stars and managed to make it to the final table. I was the chip leader most of the final table and when we got down to 3 we made a deal. I didn't have a big chip lead, we were about 620K, 480K and 440K. Payouts were standard chip-chop and we all accepted it. I probably could have bargained a little more but with the way I've been running lately I didn't want to force any issues and be left with one of them getting pissed, refusing to make a deal and me getting the shaft by going out in third for alot less. I was more than happy to take the deal and they were to. I know in the future I will be a little more aggressive with the deal making, but that was my first "deal" so I didn't see any need to push matters too much. I did notice that the chip leader really gets the bad end of the deal with standard chip-chop though and third was getting a really good deal.So, BR is back up to a decent number, approximately $1100. I just hope I can fade the bad beats/coolers.Goals for April: nothing specific, just play good poker and have fun. My B-Day is in April though so I'm expecting the poker gods to reward all the bad luck I've had recently with the best month of poker eva!!Good luck everyone.
