belated july report

I'm struggling to write anything here, it seems like nothing much happened during July outside of poker. Got back from the snow and finished my mid-semester break, didn't really do anything exciting. Played some basketball, lifted some weights, watched a lot of sports, did a lot of errands and helped my fiancée with a few things. Just mainly relaxed and put in some poker hours. It's 4 weeks into second semester now and my timetable is great with classes only between Monday and Wednesday. This segregates the week nicely into study and poker and also ensures I put extra effort into attending classes as missing a day is more critical.

Poker during July was fairly standard. Failed 2/4 shot to begin the month. I decided enough was enough and banished myself from the limit indefinitely. I think so far this year I've played about 50k hands there and I'm down about 3k but down about 12k in allin equity. The opportunity cost and stress of spending this time there is notable. On the other hand the experience gained has helped me become a better player. I know I'm good enough to beat the limit but I just can't seem to pull it together. Will try again later in the year with the help of a coach.

August is going to be spent entirely on 1/2 and has gone well so far, as usual I run well on the limit. Or maybe I just don't run bad? Whatever the case hopefully it continues for the remainder of the month. Could use a good one after a disappointing June and July. Enjoy the rest of your month everyone

went through the same thing at 2/4 and even after i was there for a while i hit a bad streak and had to drop back down to 1/2. Honestly i think the only solution is to just dump enough money there until u finally run hot and move up for good. Almost everyone ive ever talked to just dumped a ton of money there moving up before they finally broke through, myself included. Also dont be too anxious to move up though, as im sure u realize plenty of money to be made at 1/2.
