It's like 20 but whatev. You're becoming like a post-publication editor for me. Very useful.

400 NL has not treated me kindly. Still up, but a long way to go. Finally touched based with my new poker coach, first session is on Wendsday, so hopefully this graph will look ridiculous on August 31st.

Ive been stacked 5 times today with AA AA AA KK QQ and lost 1/2 my stack with AA again.

Just absolutely absurd.

Aug.01-Aug.13:



I think this is the month hopefully I break above my prior best month of $15K and hit $20K-a goal I've had a bead on last 3-4 months. I'm up almost $11K total already including play from a couple non-PokerTracker compatible sites like Tain Network(PokerShare) and iPoker(Noble Poker).

My play has really improved since becoming much more aggressive pre-flop in position and tightening up in the blinds. I'd still like to get my asb% from around 30% to 35% and my other stats to ~21%VPIP/16%PFR-the added stealing,raising more utg with suited connectors and over-limping less often(or never)should do the trick.

Something that has really helped me is that I've gone back into my $400 and $600 datamining databases and used the PokerTracker Re-player to play hands by a few of the best players at these levels and really studied tons of hands.

To hit my 75K hand goal for the month I'm gonna have to start playing ~2,700 hands per day..I've only been doing around 2,000 hands so far.
