Pushing forward.
On the eighth May I pushed up to $5.50 STT’s and by the sixteenth I had retreated back to $2.25 games. I played 21 $5 tables in total, cashing in nine of those but unfortunately with only one win. I had made a total profit of $6 and so they weren’t really getting me anywhere. I felt uncomfortable on the days when I lost more than two games in a row, like it was too easy to destroy all the effort I had put in. It was when I lost six in a row that I lost my nerve. I dropped back down and everything was suddenly alright.
I feel more comfortable playing the $2 but I want to move up – so I started multi-tabling three tables at a time so that each round costs $6.75 instead of $11 as it did with two $5 tables. Since the beginning of last month I have playing quite alot of $2 STT’s, cashing in 32/49 of them. Thirteen of these were first place and so is quite a contrast to the $5 games. My overall profit from $2 STT’s in the last two months is currently $122.75.
From now I on I shall post the above picture to show my current bankroll and academy credits. Things have been going a bit slowly the last week but I am still pushing forward. With this amount of credits I can currently buy a $13 Mini Ftops ticket but as there are none of these games right now I have decided to save up.
Above is this my overall graph from the beginning of April to now. I always feel like seeing it in graph form is much more helpful to see the progress. Whether I’ll go back up to $5 games remains to be seen but for now I’m more comfortable playing more $2 games than forcing myself to push up. I’ll keep grinding away, until next time – take it easy.
