Progression

April 2010 Performance Update
Total Month: +$1,057
50NL: +$678
RB/Bonus: +371
Donkaments: -$21
Pokerstars VIP Gold Freeroll: +$29

Second $1k+ month in a row, very psyched! Enjoyed some nice postive variance this month which put some wind in the sails.

Getting close to my 30 Buy-In target at 50NL, hope to move up soon to 100NL barring an unfortunate down-swing! Plan is to increase the hurdle rate at 100NL to 40 Buy-Ins with a 10 Buy-In Stop-Loss.

Almost done clearing the Pokerstars bonus, will likely see that booster slow down after that is cleared later this month.

Monthly Garph (50NL)

Great news, crossed the +30 Buy-In Target and am moving up to 100NL (-10 Buy-In Stop-Loss).

Stats for 50NL Try #2: +$1,502 over 35,596 Hands (+4.2 ptbb/100)

Will be increasing the 100NL target to +40 Buy-Ins to reflect the anticipated challenge of the higher skill levels and better absorb a downswing.

As an aside from my perspective, I would second comments from other FTR posters noticing a change in table dynamics with a majority of the bad (i.e. profitable) players gravitating toward the 20bb-50bb tables.

Looking forward to 100NL, here we go, hope we don't flame out....
