November update

Tuesday, November 27th, 2007

October was a weird month, I tried to play a lot in order to qualify for the BPO, but last 10 days I just didn’t have enought time. Of course it was mostly my fault, cause the first 10 days I spend a lot of time playing SNGs and PLO.

I did not qualify for the BPO from the SNG sateliite with 2 places guaranteed, after some weak plays from my side and an unsuccessfull flop push on the bubble with MP+FD << TP. I feel that my game is too tight when the game gets 3-4 handed. I have to put in some SNGs to improve this aspect.

This month I moved up to NL100 and pulled off around 40k hands on this limit. It seems that the players are generally more competent and the regulars almost never stack with TPTK. However, the month was reasonably good and I have been able to keep 2bb/100. I would like to improve to at least 4bb/100 for the next month when there is even a reload bonus...sweeet, free moneyz!!!

I played a lot of small tournaments (fields size in the order of 30-60 ) this month and???? I had some great success in them, final tableing every second and getting a lot of high finishes. However, not a single first place! :( For the whole month I do not have a first place in a donkament(~40), SNG(3), HUSNG(2). Feels kinda bad. I guess I have to work more on shortstacked(15-25bb) HU. I seem to push too easy with top 20% hands. I am also either too aggressive or too passive and this doesn't work out well
In general this was a great month and I am looking forward to keeping up the good scores next month also.

Goals for December: 30k on NL100 with > 4bb/100. 30-40 small tourneys and work on PLO50 ….
