Reviewing June (Such a Roller Coaster Month)

THe good news is I did well at 25NL this month. In 6404 hands I ended up +$316.66. The bad news is that I made two unsuccessful shots at 50NL . After a total of 11513 hands I ended up with the following numbers:
BR: $988.83
Profit: +$62.18

So if you do math, you can see how POORLY I ran at 50NL. There was little to no change at all in the way I played at 50NL, but I did notice a few differences in the type of players I ran into. There were several instances when I'd end up getting called in 2-3 spots after attempting an iso raise. Then more often than not I'd miss the flop, and with 3-4 players going to the flop I'd either be forced to cbet into a few "willing callers" or not cbet at all. Another interesting fact that I just looked up is that I got KK 45 times this month, for a whopping +$2.97, lmfao. It's just really frustrating to not be able to win at all at 50NL, when my "reads"on the tables suggests that I should be winning more.

I am considering waiting till I have 25 buy-ins before moving back up to 50NL. This way when I get back up to 50NL I can afford to start slow and not worry about dropping down after 1 or 2 bad sessions. So my goal for next month is just to play solid poker at 25NL and build towards those 25 buy-ins.
