Last week went pretty well as I continued to stay conservative and build up the roll a little more. I actually profited 6 out of 7 days lifting the bankroll to an all-time high. With just one week of school to go, I think it's best to focus on finishing that up, so Daily Bonanzas, $3 SnGs, and $10 cash games will be in the repertoire. Here's where I ended last week:
Play Money: 27,028,000 Up 4,041,000
Real Money: $2,068.29 Up $54.26
Target for next SnG level: $2,200 ($110)
Target for next MTT level: $2,750 ($55)
Target for next Cash Game level: $4,000 ($200)
The two year mark of this project is approaching (May 2nd) and I never thought I'd be this far along at this point. I've had some luck along the way, but I really feel like my past failures have contributed a lot to my success. Losing bankrolls actually taught me the importance of managing them well. A lot of players that have early success fail to learn that variance plays a huge roll in poker, and managing your bankroll through it is more important than playing well. You can make correct decisions and still lose. The old adage "luck is streaky by nature" is what I try to remind myself of whether I'm running bad or good. I put in for a week of vacation the week after I graduate, and I will most definitely be going to the casino at least three or four of those days. In the meantime, I will be playing low stakes to protect the roll. Thank you to everyone for reading, and Happy Easter!
