So going into the WSOP I was pretty tilted at my inconsistency this year. I would play midstakes cash, win 5k, then lose 5k at PLO. I'd grind out 5k at 1/2NL, then lose 5k at highstakes mix. I'd win 5k at PLO, then lose 5k in tournaments. I'd win some in live tournaments and action-buying, then I'd lose some. At a certain point I felt like I wasn't approaching things like a professional (more like a live poker degen or something) and vowed post-WSOP to stick to the same games and grind it out, little by little. I missed a week of grinding because of the WSOP Main (but hey that was a pretty good week to miss grinding thanks to the mincash heyooo), but still managed to log 74 hours and here were my results:
100PLO: 42k hands, $4400 winnings, ev of $2000 (ptbb 10.5, evptbb 5) 200NL: 22k hands, $350 winnings, ev of $700 (ptbb 0.8, evptbb 1.6) Overall: 64k hands, $4750 winnings, ev of $2700 Throw in the rakeback and I made $6500 over about 74 hours of play, which is a pretty solid hourly when you run whitehot at PLO. My last session of the month was 6 hours and I made 20 buyins, decent little heater (that should help explain the massive over-ev for PLO) There are obviously better months to be had by Leggo pros, but mine is mine and I'm happy about it. I'm gonna freeroll on a bunch of online MTTs in the next couple of months (FTOPS+WCOOP) so there won't be any worries of losing my modest gains on some lotto ticket donkaments =) I'm still waiting for a good time to make my Leggo videos. My temporary desk is in the middle of the house I'm crashing at, and there's not really any time in the day to make a video. Either there's commotion going on in the background or someone is sleeping on the nearby couch. Hopefully I'll be at my new place within a week, fingers crossed! Pics to come. My august goals are to make $1k a week in rakeback. I'm averaging about $350 a week in rakeback and I'm gonna want to step it up if I'm gonna do my grinder retribution thing. I'm actually really happy with my soda bounty so far. I have gone multiple days without even thinking about coke. Way better about it this time than bounties past, where I'd be tweaking like a crack addict. And that's pretty much what's up with me since the main event. Next blog should come when I'm at the new place. 1 timeeeee. My new musical preference is "Kush and OJ" by Wiz Khalifa. There are so many gems in this mixtape that I stumbled on a few days ago. Basically every song talks about smoking weed, I dont smoke weed, but f*ck it every song is awesome.
