Since my last update I haven't been grinding a ton but I've put in some hands and had decent results. The charger for my laptop broke the other week and it took 5 days for a new one to arrive so during that period I mainly just substituted poker time with Madden/NBA but still played a few plo sessions on my parents computer when I was bored of that.

I played stars sundays for the last two weeks and have done pretty awfully, think I'm about 1/12 and that was only a meh cash in the 50r. I'm running up stacks and feel I'm playing fine, although probably worse than I would if I didn't have the NFL on in the background. I'm not giving up sundays with KC for poker though.

This sunday however, will be an exception, as I'm flying out to Costa Rica on Saturday for LAPT. Part of me feels pretty dumb for travelling half way across the world for a donkament but the other part of me wants an adventure or something. I also can't get cash for the seat I won (which I didn't know at the time) so I'd be throwing away some decent equity not playing.

My brother was there for 6 months doing conservation work and said I should check out the rest of the country if I get chance. Apparently you can go see a volcano so I might do that. Hopefully if I bust out early I'l be able to do something interesting rather than just sit about by the pool all week, although if worse comes to worst I'l just have to settle for that. I think I will probably be taking my laptop so I might get an update in while I'm out there.

My sleeping is all over the place at the moment, I won't bore everyone with the details of how fcked it is but it is definitely a November goal to get a decent sleeping pattern nailed down. Sometimes I slip back in to something decent but after a week or so I end up having an all nighter and it just degenrates from there. It's hard when the games are best in the early hours of the morning over here, but I can't go on like this otherwise I get nothing else done and feel pretty crappy about it.

I'l likely be sorting stuff for my trip tomorrow, so results from the last month:


About 60% hu and 40% 6max. I don't track mtts and plo although I'm fairly sure I'm 3-5k down in mtts and about the same up at plo. This is my best month ever and makes me happy given the thought I was grinding 100nl a couple of month ago. It's been a long time rebuilding since I blew through a 50k bankroll playing 200/400 limit (ya rly) back in April but I finally feel like I'm back in a position to make some decent money.

November I will miss the first week because of this tourny thing, but hopefully I'l be able to come back fresh and get some decent volume in. I'l probably be playing more 6max than hu though it just depends what the games are like, most likely 2/4 thru 5/10 6max and 5/10hu. I'd say there's a fairly high chance my next blog will be a loldonkaments rant. You have been warned.

Thanks for reading,
Rob.
