Hopefully last time I have to take a shot at 25NL

UPDATE: okey, BR=$2200+. The Pokerstars switch killed me. I topped out at about $2550@50NL. Since the switch, my tough time with the regulars just got wayyyyy tougher. Being the nit that I am I usually did the best I could to find fishees. Seems like the tiny pond I was fishing at 50NL dried up. Even played some 25NL and it seemed like I was playing 50NL previous to the switch. I just ended up trying to outplay and FPS spewing all over the place.

For the time being I am going back to 25NL to try to work some sh!t out. Pains me being well rolled for 50NL still, but I have some serious kinks I have to work out before continuing. I'm also on pace for goldstar for the first time ever and its a bit easier to put in higher volume at 25NL. I picked out about 10 regs I have 700+ hands on. I'm going to go through PT and try to pick their game apart and see if I can come up wih some good ways to hurt em. Dunno should be benificial I hope. Don't know how long I will stay at 25. I guess whenever I feel like I can stomp the regs a bit better. I thought I had a problem with them before but now...........

Life news: My home mountain closed on Sunday. I took a slam on a jump a week ago. Busted lip and a broken wrist woooo. Also managed to destroy 2 sets of bindings this season. Last day, my wifey broke her wrist as well wooooo. Now that the resort is closed, the town will be a ghost town. I have about 2 weeks until we close down my bakery, so I will be on part-time hours pretty much. After that we wont open again until memorial day weekend. Arapahoe Basin should be open till middle of May I hope so I might still get some riding in before stupid ass summer. But anyways I will have plenty more time to play and hopefully improve. Next update whenever the fook I feel like it.

I dunno wtf I wanna do. Yesterday I started at 25NL, was pretty meh. Saw some better 50NL tables, played there for the rest of the day +60$. Today the 25NL tables seemed better than 50NL +30$. Low volume though, only bout 300-500 hands a day with less tables. I think I just had a bad week. I really need to stop being a pussy and play what I'm rolled to play. Although I think it's even more +EV for me to play whatever stake seems to be suited to my nittyness at the time. A lot of my spew still seems to come from bad postflop play and trying to put moves on regs. I'm not scured of the regs. I guess I'm just getting frustrated trying to squeeze a penny out of em. Stuff to work on, dunno.

BR=2300$ish

TOTAL for 50NL 13K hands +300$ (why am I pussing out??)
actually lost a good chunk at 25NL

Nice job!

I tried to make a run at goldstar, but came up short thanks to school winding down =\

Next month!

UPDATE: BR= 1582$ +Goldstar for the first time ever.

Month was kind of meh. Started off well until PS changed the structure. Then I kind of struggled to figure out where to play and pretty much blew it while I was finding my way. I did a lot better @50NL FR for the whole month than anywhere else. Somehow I ended up down about 9 buyins @25NL (wtf? I dunno). Spent the end of the month gettin it all back @25NL (+8 BIs in one day tho mwahaha).

So on to May. I will be out of work as of today until the 27th. Other than some occasional trips to Arapahoe Basin to ride, probly won't be doing much. Going to go full on 50NL only. Got 20+ BI's at this point to play on and I've been doing well there so far. I want to start posting at least a hand a day and putting in more study time. Side goals are to quit smoking (again), stop drinking for the month, and start gettin some excercise at home now that I wont be riding anymore.
