April Summary and Goals

I played about 22k hands of $50 nlhe FR, 2k hands of $50 nlhe FR Rush Poker, and 600 hands of $100 nlhe HU. I know I said I wasn't going to play $100 nlhe but I think that was before I made my last post. It's strange, I have a little degen in me that always wants to play higher and chase losses. I gotta fix this leak or I will never reach my poker goals.

Overall, I won about $500 plus $200 in rakeback so it was a successful month in my book. I read Vizer's blog and he wrote about eventually playing 4 tables of Rush Poker and 12 regular tables. I tried 2 tables of Rush and 14 regular but it was too fast pace for me. I dropped it down to 1 table of Rush and 15 regular tables and it was perfect. I use Table Ninja and Hotkeys so I don't have to click as much so I can play about 1200 hands/hour.

I use to hate Rush Poker but I've accepted it for what it is. A total nit fest with some players who love to spew off stacks. I don't think I could ever just focus on Rush but I'll play one table of it.

As for the fitness goals, I only lost about 5 pounds so I'm halfway there. If I stick to my diet and gym plan, I should lose another 5 pounds this month and start to play $100 nlhe FR again.

I'm at around 70k hands since my last graph. I will post the 100k hand graph when I get there.
