Feels Good to Win
July 27th, 2010 Posted in PokerI’ve been playing 2k hands/day. And I’m now only playing about 670 hands/hr since I’ve dropped to 9 tables and table selecting like crazy. I mean, it’s hard to even keep 9 good tables open so I’m probably only averaging 7 tables at a time.
I’m just doing so many things well that it feels weird. Like I said, I’m table selecting like crazy which I wasn’t doing during the first half of the month. I’m taking notes and marking fish with purple tags. When I step away from my computer I don’t bring any emotional baggage with me or let my results affect my mood. And the thing that I’m now doing that I’ve never done before… I don’t look at my results during a session! I just play as well as I can for as long as I can, which is about 3 hours.
Since I’ve been doing all these things I’ve been winning at 3.16 BB/100 and my EV is at 4.44 BB/100. The sample size is only 14k hands though. And I’m definitely not running well. I’m 4 buy-ins below EV for those 14k hands and 10 buy-ins below EV for the month.
I’ve got another 5k hands to play this month to make 40k. So I’m going to try to play 2500 tomorrow and Thursday so I can spend Friday packing up all my stuff and cleaning the apartment because I move on Saturday.
