Final 2010 Session
Lasted almost 3 hours this afternoon (without a break, grrr trying to stop that but fish kept me at tables). Was similar stuff to last night with some good 2/4$ hi lo going on and i wasnt disappointed. Didnt even get the downswing this time and made a tidy profit of over £600. Also bought a £250 bonus so final profit for Dec a nice healthy +£3,229.
Almosts
Almost didnt go shopping as i woke up late and knackered but figured it was still the better option or poker so did so. Expected to stay until 7 or 8pm but came home a bit earlier.
Still wasnt really thinking about playing poker but in the end decided to hav a small bash just before 10pm. 50 minutes later after 7 tabling .5/1$ plo and running golden as well as having people throw money at me i was 4.5 buyins up but still not really in the mood to play any more !
So after almost not playing i was a happie happie. Expected that to be the end but....
An hour or so later i saw some juicy 2/4$ hi lo plo tables going so figured it was worth a shot. After going on my usual spiral downwards to begin with (maybe $400-$600) i managed to get a fish heads up on 2 tables and eventually hit my share of rivers after he had hit his early. Result was about $800 up in the end.
So again after almost stopping things went better than i could have expected.
Result on day was just over £800 up and sit on the month at a peak of £2,318 for December.
Expect to still play tommorrow though so will update with a final years profit figure once im done. Not that i like targets but +£601 tommorrow would put my spreadsheet on exactly +£30k for the year but unless i ran real good again or the games are juicy i certainly wouldnt expect to finish on that.

Hard Day
A tricky day which, at one point i almost gave up on. Started bad and just got worse. Was happy with how i was playing though and didnt tilt and kept with it, even taking short breaks to cool off a bit. After going down about £800 i finished the day at +£600ish which is a big swing, given i didnt play plo above $1/2 and plo hi lo above 2/4$.
Anyway raked enough (about $500) to hit a target level on a site i needed and also cleared another sites bonus due to expire before the end of the year.
Could sit back and not play until 2011 and probably going shopping tommorrow but planing a low key nye. Im still recovering from a stomach bug i had over xmas so just not craving any booze yet.
Plan for 2011 is to ease in at first then from 5th rake $400 a day on one site for 25 days as part of a promotion. Hopefully this will test profit levels, game choice, motivation, discipline etc etc and if it suits set a trend for the year. If not i will look at a new plan of attack in Feb which would probably involve a wider range of games across more sites.
I guess i should do a review of 2010 although not sure if i will bother putting much effort into it yet. Most months have been very different to the previous or following one so maybe just a link to each monthly review would b more appropriate.

Xmas Run Good ?
Not played a whole lot since last post as been boozing the last 2 days but did manage ok profits Wed/Thurs for the few hours each day. Not sure what im up to today, my body is telling me not to drink a 3rd day in a row but i dont think im gonna listen. Anyways tables were golden just now. All .5/1 and 1/2$ plo played well and ran good too. Just over 2 hours session saw me tally +£440.
Dec tally back to over the 4 figures mark for first time since that boozy 2/4 session and sits on +£1,071 at mo. Will update below if play any more today but need some food now before i decide on my plan of action for the day.
Happy Xmas to all readers !
....edit 45mins more -------> +£1,107 = pub time :)

Tiring Day
Didnt play poker until after 6pm tonight. Had bad sleep night before despite feeling shattered when i went to bed. Was busy xmas shopping all day so im pleased to have still put a few 1-2hrs sessions in tonight. Did well first 2 but lost in the 3rd but overall finished +£90 on the day.
I think my figures yesterday might have been unrealistic i forgot i did play a fair bit of 2/4. I'll see how the nxt week goes I wanna try and come up with something concrete with regards to the stakes i intend to play 90%+ of my games at and the rakeback i would get next year if i fall into a routine of sorts on them (which is hopefully the plan).
