zOMG! an update!!!!

just a quick one though, posting cos i don't want to go to bed, lol.

what's happening with me?

At the end of summer, i withdrew most of my poker monies (again) for various reasons that made sense at the time. I left myself with something like $700 spread out across party/stars/full tilt. I have not been able to play much this term, as i have actually been doing uni work!

However, when i have been playing, i have been doing well, and this is my current totals across the 3 sites:

FTP: $807.50
Party: $712.11
Stars: $306.62
RB due: $36.27
Total: $1862.50

The stars total is a little low, as i've recently has to pay a few people through it. Being a bankroll nit now, this week i've been trying to rebuild on stars at $25NL, but after 1000 hands of -3.57bb/100 poker, i thought "Fuck it." and moved up and boomswitched, as you can see on the graph for this week below:

A couple of the big pots were me 3-betting ai on the flop in a "bullshit do you have anything!" manner, and sucking out. I made sure i'd have 6 outs if i was wrong though! lol.

Anyway, my long term goals are to try to get to $2k on each site by the end of the year, and by the end of the academic year, i'd like to have $10k+ on each site so i have enough to try going pro for a while! Obviously i've still got a lot to learn, and a lot of hands at SSNL before i can get there, and a job may well be a better option, but i can see me being back at uni next year anyway, and i don't want a proper job yet! I really want to prove to myself that this would genuinally be an option for me, if i wanted it.
