10k bankroll (Milestone)

I've been thinking about making this milestone for awhile now. My bankroll will fluctuate but it's nice to see 10k in the bankroll. I always withdraw so it never got this high ever until now. Def feels good.

July 2010 Summary

I finally decided to hire Citizenwind (Alvin Lau) to coach me in $100 NLHE FR Rush Poker. I always liked his CR videos and his style of play. I've gotten 3 of 4 lessons already and will get the last one sometime in August. If your thinking about hiring Alvin, you have to throw your ego out the window because he isn't going to hold back if he thinks you play bad. I read his review on CR so I didn't take any of it personally but it did sting a little :)

I was down 14 bi in early July and then i hired Alvin to coach me. I then went on a 14 bi upswing over about 40k hands or so. So I broke even for the month over 68k hands which is not so bad because I made money from rakeback/bonuses.

I'm really looking forward to August and seeing how this new style will work for me. The sick thing is I think I ran bad on turn and rivers for the past 40k hands. I would easily be up about 10 bi or more. I can remember about 4-6 sets that gut suck out on the turn or river or very scary cards hitting and killing my action.

Good Luck
