This is my first post since moving up to the $50NL game.

I have been reading a lot of end of the year posts from fellow poker players, and most are much more spectacular than this one.

My year end graph:

You can see my transition to the higher stakes game, with the big down swing. Here is the graph for my $50NL play.

I made some loose plays in at a level I don’t fully understand. Adjustments have been made, and it has shown in the hands that have gone to showdown. Playing live poker tonight, Great Fun!

Being on the road for the holidays affect my play time less than expected, thanks to a wireless broadband card. I mixed up my regular full ring with some 6 Max cash games and $5 heads up sit-and-gos.

Graph for the week:

Graph for the month so far:

The bankroll is getting a kick in the ass. I’m taking my poker investment up to $2500, and moving to .25-.50 no limit games.

I want to thank PokerStars support for being so quick in assisting me. I have my hand histories and the graph for last week’s play.

Looking forward to the coming week, may have to find a coffee shop to play at.

Finally home. Got some play in this week, but no had histories to review or post. I have made a special request with PokerStars support for all my hands. It was a good week, broke my downswing. Best play of the week was getting out of the Northeast before they got snowed in!

This past week has been detrimental to my game. It has made it non existent. I was rear-ended early last week while riding my motorcycle. The bike is totaled but I’m fine. I couldn’t get my mind into the game while dealing with the insurance and my loss. I just arrived in New Jersey on business travel. I’ll make the most of the in room internet this week. Time to start my session.

Friday: Went out with friends instead of playing. Totally worth it.

Saturday: Played for 7 hours. Ran well until I lost the following back to back hands.

Easy enough. No poker today. Taking care of some around the house tasks, and watching some Daily Show.

Beginning Bankroll: $237.70

It was a monotonous night. Mediocre cards and flops that missed me every time, but somehow I squeezed out a profit. I continue onward and upward. I’m tired, and out for the night.
