Progress update

I thought and decide that I reach my goals for this month and tomorrow I will have a free day. It is a good thing to have day without poker and get back into action with yearning for poker. I think this will be the best for my game.
And now about my results in January. First of all, lets talk about cash games. I started month pretty good, but the end was terrible.

 

As you see in the last graph. My EV line is about 8BI higher then winnings line.

But in the end this graph shows that my winnings including rakeback is $57.57.

 

My HU sit and goes results is much better.

I played 67 tournaments. 

ROI 21%, 

In the money 65.7%, 

Winnings $141.55, 

Time played 12.6 hours

$/h: $11.23 

Avg Buyin:  $10.08

From the graph you can see that winnings with rakeback is $150.24 

 To sum up $57.57+$150.24= $207.81 To said true I like this number. Hope February will be better.

This month as was planned I reach Iron Man Bronze status:

 

To sum up that was a good month for me. Now I have bigger plans for next month. How everything will go you will could read future progress updates. Tomorrow is a free day from poker for me. I hope you like read this blog. See you later :)

Goals for next month

Hello everyone, today I would like to talk about my goals for next month. But at first a little bit about January. That was quite good month to me. I was running good until my last progress update in this blog, but after that post my wining line started drop down. Now there is about 10BI difference between winnings and EV line in my graph. But fortunately I am winning in heads up sit and goes. More informative post I will publish tomorrow  or in beginning of February.


Now about next month goals. February is shortest month in the year and my goals for that 28 days is:

• to play at least 30k hands in cash games
• to play at least 100 HU stg's
• to reach at least gold iron man status
• to watch at least one series about 6-max cash games on deuces cracked

Would be good:

• Win some money (i would like to build my bankroll to $750 and take some shots in NL25)
• To make a live play video for this blog. 

Nothing more is coming into my head now. I will update this post if I will remember something more.

Besides from February LSPF (Lithuania Sport Poker Federation) change their age limit. Now people who is 18 or more can register into it and play in live tournaments. So from February I will become a member of LSPF and I will play in some live tournaments. How it goes I will publish in this blog.

Ok, see you later. Progress update with graphs and other stuff about January results probably will be the next post.

Progress update

Hi all, I am back to the blog. Today I will wright about my progress in poker. I started playing in NL10 6-max. I really like to play here. Maybe this is upswing or something but running really well. PTR shows that I am about $-200 in NL10 SH. Yes about year ago I tried to play this level, but I got a huge downswing and I back to full ring. But now I am running well.

This is my this year cash games graph. It involves NL5 6-max, NL10 6-max, and very small amount of full ring and PLO.

And this is my tournaments graph. It’s only HU $5 and $10. This is small amount of tournaments but so far good too.

 

 My iron man challenge progress not running as I was planned, but I think I will easily reach bronze status.

Graphs and DC

Hello again, I would like to tell you a little what I am doing now. My goal for this month is to play 16 tables in NL5 and get bronze iron man status. It takes just 1 hour every day. That is not so difficult. Last year I lost my iron man end year bonus, this year I am planning do not lost any month. Now I am working on my 6-max play. This is my 2011 year graph:

 

And this is my iron man page. I don’t play in the beginning of the month but now I am planning to play to reach at least bronze status.

 

I have one more idea. As you saw I am placing some poker learning things, like books. Now I would like to place some teaching videos from deucescracked.com. I am sorry DC I know this is illegal but not everyone has good enough bankroll to buy membership to poker teaching site. So I am waiting requests which series would you like to see for free. Just go to ddeucescracked.com -> poker videos and check for series you would like to see and wright in comments. I will see what you need and I will place them here that you could download them.  

I think that’s it for this time. I am waiting your requests. See you later.

Isildur1 = Viktor Bloom

I think that most of you know who is Isildur1. He is Swedish unknown online poker player which won few millions from durrrr and other poker superstars. And after that he lost those millions faster then won. Now he is Online Team PokerStars Pro. Everyone wasn’t sure who he is. Now he decides to show who he is.  As was guessing he is Victor Bloom.
