Back to Square One...

My graph since the beginning of the year...

...As of today I'm officially in the red on UB (still up overall thx to FullTilt). With a BR of $747.49, I am at -$2.51. I know it could be alot worse, but I honestly can't imagine feeling any worse about my game right now. Despite making around $250.00 in rakebacks and bonuses, I am still in the red. FML.

As I've mentioned before I am sticking with UB at least till I clear all of my bonus. So the plan for now is going to be as follows:

I am not going to play for the rest of the month. Instead I'll be reviewing my stats (on week by week basis) since the beginning of the year. Basically I'll be looking for any difference in my play when things were going good compared to when things were going bad. I'll probably post what I find at the beginning of next month.

My "I Need to Vent" post

Just writing this post because twitter doesn't give me enough characters for this one. Poker has been really pissin me off this month!!! I've been mediocre at best, and the most I've been up is like $45 (I'm down about $35 right now) I could blame the site like everyone else (it has been brutal at times), but F that. If the thousands of pros out there can consistently win online, then why can't I (or anyone else for that matter)....

...so here's the conclusion i came to. After a little review of my stats for this month, I found that I that from positions 1, 2, 3 and the button, I've been winning. From the blinds, however, I am spewing hella money!!! I've actually lost more money from the BB than positions 1-button combined!!! What a Donkey!!! lol.

So with 7 days remaining in the month I've decided to work on my game in the blinds and really make effort to play solid because maybe it's not UB's fault, maybe it's mine. Even breaking even for the month will be a plus for me...

March a.k.a "The Bad Winning Month" Review

I'm starting to wonder if moving to UB was the right move. Sometimes the tables are really bad, and I just force myself to play. Or it could be the "run bad"/tilt phase (see graph) I went through last month that's making me doubt the site and myself a little. But, I'll be playing on UB at least till I clear that bonus, so hopefully things get better. Here are the numbers for the month:

Profit: +$90.84

Bankroll: $865.41 (haven't been keeping track of the bonuses, that's why there's a little extra there.)

Anyways, my goal for April is the same as it was in March. Crack $1000.00 and move up to 50NL.
