My month in a nutshell
It's not pretty but I think there is a lot I can take away from this.
Like:
-I win more sessions than I lose.
-If I had a stop loss, I would probably have won this month and not lost.
-The month was not as bad as thought because I actually lost $2500 of the profits I had made at the beginning of the month. But I can't forget that I still had a $5K downswing from my play.
Playing hands and grinding out a decent winrate is easy enough for me. I should be able to even make a decent amount just by earning a measly 4BB/100 and getting RB. I can guarantee that I would have had even more hands this month if not for the tilt issues. I play too much when tilting and losing but I can play even more when playing well and winning.
Goals for February. 5BB/100 over 35K hands at $100NL . I will edit my BR link when my RB goes through. I should be looking at a $1K or so deposit from that. My goal is to play $50NL until then at about 10BB/100. I know these rates can fluctuate short term, but I actually think they will slow me down knowing how little this actually is when you look at the longer term. 10BB/100 at $50NL is less than 2.5BB an orbit once you deduct the blinds.
Things to look at when playing.
-Don't check/call without a damn good reason, and it better be good
-take time to make decisions, particularly when I've been 3bet, raised on the river and before C betting and 2barreling.
-Pay less attention to HM graphs during play and just watch the report window once in a while if you feel you may be nearing the stop loss point.
-Play a lot less tricky. It's stupid to complain about them calling you down with TPNK or 2nd pair on a flopped mono board and then make plays when you have monsters like trying to induce bluffs or raises, checking behind or C/shoving flops.
-NO MORE OUTRITE BLUFFING. They don't like to fold much, so I have to have more equity Cbetting wet flops and or turns when 2barrel semi bluffing. I can't over estimate my FE.
