Operation Uranus

Goal: 1 meeeelion dollars, so I can give it all to the tax man.
Why Uranus: Zhukov's name for the battle to retake Stalingrad, WWII

Limit: 1/2
Hands: 1937
Aggression: 2.061
V$IP: 18.38%
PFR: 8.57%
Profit: 135.75BB
Rate: 7BB/100

OK - this is a lesson for all the kiddies... after I posted this I lost _87_ straight hands before stealing the blinds with KK.

Down about 25BB right there.

Quit laughing. I know you all have been waiting for my cards to go sour, you big meanies:

Limit 1/2
Hands: 2388
Agg: 2.036
V$IP: 18.04
PFR: 8.58%
Profit: $240.50 (120.25BB)
Rate: 5BB/100

I am down about $5 at superior, but have only played 100 hands

Limit 1/2
Hands: 3184
Agg: 2.0
V$IP: 18.5
PFR: 9%
Profit: $131 (65.5 BB)
Rate: 2.18BB/100

Actually dropped limits. I don't really have the time to make good table selection right now, plus I have to put my $150 from Stupid Superior back in Party or something.

Operation Uranus cancelled.

At 0.5/1, so, yes, nearly 8BB/100

I don't think the player gaps between 1/2 and .5/1 are that big at party, just had better cards at the lower limit (remember, I dropped down after a really bad streak)

My experience is that there are 1/2 tables as loose as .5/1 but they are harder to find.

None of this is why I am cancelling Uranus! I am just in a wierd poker holding pattern, trying to clear a small bonus at Stars, and playing alot of 1 or 2 table $10 SNGs and the occasional MTT. Plus, my new monkey poker game, low limit omaha. I vastly enjoy NL tourneys for sheer entertainment value, and with a couple ITMs in the last few I have been in (including guantlet), I am convinced I can at least play SNGs with the big boys.

Right now, I am leaning towards *actually* bankrolling myself for a grand, or at least 500. I'm not sure I am willing to commit to a SINGLE game, at a single Limit. Also, other than 50% more chips in an SNG at stars, plus guantlet, I have to be a huge Party fan (because they dump History to harddrive)

I have a new, more modest goal than the originally stated $1,000,000 - that is I need ~3Gs for a new 'puter than I can play HL2 on. I just haven't yet figured out how I am going to structure my poker time. Going to clear this pathetic little $30 bonus, and see if I get this job... that last part will probably put a HUGE crimp in my poker time, but basically I can probably play play much higher limits. Probably will drop the grinding games altogether.

If I still have no job in january... I might have to go pro!

Nice stats, Zen.
