Halfway Home
18 March 2011 by 10kHero (Progress)
It's been a rocky few weeks since moving up to 200NL but I'm finally... halfway through my challenge.
I flew past the $5k mark today after a steady few days at the tables. I expect to further increase my profits during the rest of this month, and then perhaps reach $10k in April if everything goes smoothly.
The past couple of weeks haven't been easy. It's been a steep learning curve and a big test of my emotional control. I was perhaps a little under-rolled when first moving up stakes, which led to lots of stress and tilt. But I'm learning more and more from each new day playing.
Perhaps the most important thing I've learnt is when to stop playing. I'm getting good at identifying when my mood is compromising my decision-making ability.
Today I actually started tilting despite being up over $600. I could feel myself getting angry after only 2.3k hands so decided to stop for the day. It was brought on by some bad decisions which led to me becoming frustrated with myself (that I should actually have won a lot more).
All in all I'm feeling very positive about my game, I seem to be making +EV decisions most of the time as my chart shows.
