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
