May

As mentioned I completed my goals for beating 50NL and made the move to 100NL. Ended up being that I played 50NL for about half the month and 100NL the other half.

I only ended up playing 7600 hands this month which is really light. I guess I was just taking it easy as i was adjusting to 100NL. Testing the waters.

So far so good at 100NL. To be honest I really don't see much difference skill wise, but I think that's partly due to how much my game is improving. This is the best month I've had so far.

Moving forward, I need to take my game to the next level. Think outside the box and get to mid stakes.

Hi 100NL

Last weekend I achieved my target goals and beat $50NL. [Insert Party Poker balloons and fireworks imo]

Target goals were:

50k hands
35 bi's for $100NL

To summarize, I learned a fuckton at $50NL. My game came together and I worked out a ton of leaks. I also hit a ton of variance at 50NL and it was quite the up and down roller coaster at times. Pain in the ass, but it really toughened my skin. I think "inner game" is super important. Overall I'd say I started $50NL still primarily a feel player and finished significantly fundamentally stronger. An epic tranformation imo. Proud of how far I have come. Big thanks to my awesome coach and DeucesCracked.com for helping me get to my current state.

Moving forward, today I played my first sessions at $100NL. It went quite well. Finished up a little over 3 buy ins (+$300). I played three 1 hour sessions and only got in about 640 hands which is actually a pretty low Saturday for me. At one point I was playing 4 tables, but for the most part played 1-3 tables at a time. Just wanted to break myself and test the waters. The biggest difference I noticed was having to table select more. We will see were my thoughts are when I've gotten into it a bit.

Update Part 1

Alright it's been a while since I've added to my blog. Been really busy and well I guess I keep procrastinating because I have so much to add.

To start off I'm going to post the link to Episode 4 since I haven't yet. We finished the series and it was awesome being a part of it.
