  1. I'm not good at blogging here anymore. I had my worst month ever this May. As a matter of fact, May and Aprils losses have erased my entire profit from Jan/Feb/March. Sick to say after 5 months of the year I have broken even. FTOPS/SCOOP were very bad to me as were most MTTs. The times I FT'ed I'd get 7th,8th,9th and wasn't getting top 3 finishes. I guess I've been lucky to never run really bad. I've had losing months but this just seemed outrageous. I've also lost money learning 2/4 PLO 6 Max cash games. I'm okay with that as I need to put some time in figuring out how to be profitable at it. I'm getting there. On a positive note I reached Supernova on Stars. I have like 300k plus points whatever the hell they are. I know that can be converted to cash so I'd say I'm above even for whatever those points are worth, 4k plus maybe. I also had a good PLO 2/4 session today and made 4k+. Trick is not to lose it all tomorrow!! It's funny but losing this much really has me motivated. Not to chase but to just really analyze the cash game hands I play and work on improving. I've noticed some top players post how they were originally losers at poker. To keep losing and depositing they must have had a strong desire to try and learn to beat the game. When I started on Party I made money from the start and never really had that hunger. I think I'm getting it now. I want to be a successful 2/4 PLO player and I'm going to work on my game to get there. Here's to a better June!! gl gl

  2. Well, April was my first in the red month this year. I had 3-4 last year so nothing surprising. I was up overall at MTTs but lost money in my first month of playing PLO 6 max cash games. I've started looking in HEM to plug leaks and see where I'm going run. I think in a cash game I'm to ready to flip and should be nut peddling and calling draws more often. I probably wouldn't be saying that if I won the flips though :).....yesterday I had -1788.5$ in cash losses but my EV was +87$. I gotta work on my plo cash game for sure, it could be profitable if I get things under control. My MTT highlights for the month were winning the 75$ PLO8 rebuy on AP for 4k and finishing 4th in the 109$ NLH rebuy on AP for 7k and change. Otherwise was a quiet month for MTTs. I actually sold 30% of my FTOPS action (covering 10 events) and I'm 0 for 7 with one event not played. Very disappointing series so far. 4 events I've gotten the chips in good, 2 events I was 41% dog for my tourney life (the only times I was all in). One event I think I played poorly and I'll leave it at that. Hopefully some redemption today. SCOOP is starting so here's to a big May for me and everyone else.....gl....
