Something Like Poker

The trials an tribulations of an aspiring poker professional.

For my first day since reevaluating my approach to the game, I played a single session of $0.5/1 LHE on Full Tilt for 4 hours straight. I mostly played 3 tables at a time, but I also 2- and 4-tabled for some stretches depending on each table’s flow. I won $29.40 for this stretch, or 2.64 BB/100 hands (over 1,112 hands), which is a great result.

I also played a single $3+0.30 MTT, in which I didn’t cash. This brings my total earnings for the day to $26.10. The graph below outlines my ring game statistics for the day.

Update: I decided to sit down and play a bit more. After another hour, I played another 284 hands. I ran much better than I did earlier in the day (I lost to multiple runners earlier today, which didn’t happen this time), winning another $49.15. This brings my winrate for the day up to 5.64 BB/100 hands. I’ve also included an updated graph for the day below.
