Top Secret

The green goose flies high when the blue nun walks sideways. Hello! My top secret project continues, in fact it has doubled in size in terms of my input. I'll tell you all about it at the end of the month, promise.

I started trying to get a lot more hands in, and get into a groove, but the secret project interrupted that. I have only got in 3,000 hands of 6-max cash, $20nl, $25nl and a bit of $50nl so far in January. I made a small profit, which is good as I am very rusty at the cash tables, but I would be aiming to play more hands than that in 1 day if I was playing full time. I've got back to the point where I am fine 4-tabling and can almost 6-table comfortably, with the aid of my new monitor, a BenQ 24 incher. I bought it so I am prepared to play full time, at lots of tables (whether that's cash, SNG or MTTs) basically to remove any excuse I could make for not playing enough. Also I though it was a good idea to buy it now as I still have a regular salary coming in!

The plan is to play 10,000 hands at $25 or $20nl to get back into the swing and move up to $50nl (or at least take a shot at that level). My bankroll is around $1100 or $1200 dollars, so that's plenty for $50nl while I'm still employed full time.

In other poker news I managed to finish 2nd out of 22 in the 1st game of the new league at Raise the River on Sunday night. Afterwards I realized the $48 prize was my biggest tournament cash ever, lol donkaments. Sadly I couldn't come back from a 4 - 1 chip deficit against that fish Amatay, and I ended up calling 9 or 10 BBs off with Q7o (awful call in retrospect, don't mind shoving with it, but not calling) to lose to his Ax (A10 possibly?) . I feel bad for the rest of the forum that they have to put up with his bragging now, after I failed to beat him ;-) Sorry guys!

Good luck at the tables,

Simon
