I've been crushing games latley. Not that I've been winning a ton, just seems like I'm pumping out some volume, which is feels good. I could probably have and do more but I'm good with the amount right now. I've played 96 $16 SNG's and have an ROI of 18.49%. Right around there anyways..I have started keeping track of my SNGs using a spreadsheet I found on 2+2. It keeps track of ITM and ROI and etc. Currenlty at +$284 for the month. Got 54 games left to reach the goal, which I might be able to annihilate this week before I leave for the beach.
Anyways thats about it for now, just grinding it out and waiting to goto the beach. Pens play tonight and hopefully pull out a win at home to send the crapitals back to washington and move onto the conf. finals.
When I get back from the beach I'm going to try to grind out a few MTTs and see if I can boost the bankroll a lot.
Currenlty bankroll: $1256.52

Updates!
We'll I've been slackin on updating the blog and playing poker. So far this month I think I've played about 55-60 games. Up about $100ish. ROI is down probably around 10-13% which isnt bad. Been losing a lot of races and had some 2 outters in the sets I played yesterday. Not worried about it right now. I got 1 week till vacation, so I'll try to get a bulk of it done before I leave, that way when I come back I can go well and beyond the 150 game mark I need for May. Thats pretty much it right now. I've been playing really well recenlty but just havent got many breaks. Variance is a bitch!
I looked a new monitor thats is $339. 28-inch, you can fit about 12 tables on it with minimal overlap. I know I was obsessed with the Cascade but I think I like the tile better because I'm able to see all the games at once. If I get the 28-inch monitor I'll slowly work my way up to 16+ tables which would increase my volume almost double what it is now. I could probably easy play 500+ sng's which would mean more $$$. So we'll see what happens with that. Probably wont play tonight because the Pen's play. But I'll hit it tomorrow and try to bust out atlest 50 this weekend.
Current Bankroll: $1074.xx

Good Bye April, Hello Ms. May
Ok so it wasn't that bad I guess. I ended up playing a grand total of 216 SNGs this month. 187 of them were 9-man turbos. 187 @ 11.50% ROI. I don't like this one bit. Especially because almost 80%+ were $6.50 which I should have around double that area. Gotta look at my game and see whats going on with it, I know for 1 I am finishing too many 3rd places. Might need to tighten up my push/call range a bit. I ended with a bankroll of $963.xx which is exaclty where I wanted to be. I can comfortably play 6-8 $16's for the time being. I played a total of 14 yesterday and profited $63. Can this happen consistanly? I don't know. I'm aiming for 15-20% ROI for May.
So April was alright. I completed the goal of 200 SNGs and played 3+ MTTs. I made money and now able to play $16s regulary. Sharkscope shows I had around $490 profit (its a graph and wont let me zoom in but it's right below the $500 mark) for the month. My May goals are going to be a little more lax this month since I have vacation in the middle of the month, but nonetheless we are going to try to destory the tables this month and start making some money.
May Goals
1) Play 150 SNG's with an ROI of 15% or higher.
2) Play atleast 4 MTTs. (any type of game)
3) NO CASH GAMES
3 simple goals. I'm not making anymore goals for SNG leaderboards just because(see early post). I'm going to try to have a roll of $1350+ by the end of May. This will give me a decent amount to start playing $27's regulary. I'm going aggressive at these goals and still using 45-65 buy-ins per level. If anything goes crazy I will have to move down levels and grind it better.
My ROI concerns me a bit because if I can't make 20-25% ROI in the $6.50 level, I will be destoryed in higher levels. I think a lot of it is variance because I was sucked out a bunch of times on the bubble, or close to it. And with the sample size of games so far you can't really gauge it.
I think thats about it. It's Friday and almost time to eat lunch. One day I'll just be waking up and on my own schedule, hell....maybe even take the day off and enjoy the nice weather out there.
Monthly Profit: +$434
Current Bankroll: $963.xx
