Excellent Week So Far (10/28/2010)

During the past year or so I haven't had many exciting results online to post about.  However this week has been one hell of a bright-spot.  I feel things are coming together, I'm very confident, and I think my game has improved a lot. 

Online this week:

Hours:  27

Hands:  12,999 (not rounding to the unlucky 13k)

Net Profit:  $750.00

SN Bonus Cleared:  +$1500.00

Total:  +$2,250

These are some solid results for me.  I'm only buying in $50 online, so I won 15 buy-ins in 27 hours during the week so far.  Still a nice profit despite running KK into AA 50 times.  The big question mark for me was going to be: what do I do Monday-Wednesday?  Do I play live?  Or am I better off online?  Based on the results this week I think I'm much better off playing online Monday-Wednesday.  I'm going to stick to that gameplan during the upcoming months.  I want to keep improving and hopefully get myself in a position next year where I can make a huge push to rack up some nice money online.

The results above are not realistic with the bonus.  The bonus took me a while to clear, I just happened to clear it off during this week.  However, going forward I want to strive to at least average +$500 per week online Monday-Wednesday each week.  I think it's a very attainable goal.  That's 8 buy-ins per 25 hours or so.  Even averaging +$250 online per week would be managable.  I'd just be hanging around until another huge bonus clears.

Tonight and Weekend

I'm going to check out the live poker scene in AC tonight (as soon as I'm done this post).  It should be interesting because I'm really not sure what the traffic is like on a Thursday night.  If it's dead I will return to the online grind, no worries. 

Tommorow I'm going out with my new roommates which should be very fun.  I was reluctant to go out because Friday live has been my most profitable live poker night on average during the last two months.  The action is just always crazy, much better than Saturday night for that matter.  I'm still trying to figure out if this is just a fluke, or coincidence on a small sample size.  I'm guessing the action really can't be THAT much different on average between Friday and Saturday night.  Perhaps I've just been lucky on Fridays and unlucky on Saturdays.  But since I've done my thing online this week I can go out one night without pressure and have fun.  I've been looking forward to going out with my new roommates anyways.  I also haven't had a drink in just over a month, which is a very long time for me.  Besides I've already made a lot of money and accomplished a lot this month, so I'll consider Friday my month end celebration.

I should just make sure I don't get so messed that I'm hungover all of Saturday and can't play well that night.  Also trying to not meet a girl because she could ruin my life, no good will come out of that.  NO RUSSIANS.  So that's about it.  Off to the tables, if they suck I'll be back in my room REEEEEEEEEL SOON.
