Im heading out to California for vacation tomorrow so Im going to wrap up the month. It was a small month in terms of volume, but profits were very high. This turned out to be my biggest month of my poker career, and probably for a long time....Anyways heres the #s
262 MTTs Played 62,118 in profit 193% ROI
So I got in some lower than expected volume but I guess thats due to ending the month on the 23rd and slacking here and there - its tough to get in 400 mtts a month especially since I dont have 15 table and play 60% like some of the other high volume grinders, but im happy with my situation. I should of gotten a 2nd triple crown last week when I won the 501r1a AP, 162 on Cake, and the 60k on Tilt, but because the ap had under 100 entrants it didnt count....booo let me get my 2nd triple crown of the month! Overall Im obviously very happy with how the year is shaping up - Im a little under 90k in total profit for the year which is fantastic, but I also understand im running way above expectation so its not like Ill be making 500k this year.....I feel like I have a great grasp on the stakes im playing - I still dont have the chops to cut it with good thinking players, but against your average 109 FO player I feel like my edge is huge.....hopefuly I can continue to improve and take down some more larger fields next month.....Ill also be heading to AC for the WSOPC coming to town - hopefully ship a tourny there or dominate some cash games.....2010 is lookin good :)

Think I won the triple crown?
So this week was ridiculous.....Monday I won the 35k KO on tilt for 9500, Tuesday the 302r1a on Stars for 3800, and Wednesday the 80k Sniper on AP for a chopped 19,200. So this should be a triple crown but since I chopped the AP I dont know exactly how that computes. Pretty sure I am awarded 1st though cuz I had more chips during the chop and got more money. Anyways Wednesday turned out to be very interesting....I had those two ships on mon and tues and went into wednesday with hopes of winning a cake or ap for the triple crown. Its not something im dieing for but a cool little accomplishment I guess, although if you grind MTTs full time eventually you're gonna hit one. I loaded up about 20-25 MTTs on the day and had bricked all of them with 2 min cashes, and literally had the AP 80K as my last tourny to go. I was also pissed after making a questionable 4 bet in the FTP 60K with JJ into QQ, and then I blew a ton of chips in the 30r ftp when I got 77 in against AA on the flop like 60 bbs deep BvB. Anyways I was cruising in the 80k when I ran 99 into a flopped set which brought me down to 15 bbs about 20 away from cashing. At this point I went totally card dead and played the nitty shortstack game for a while...I would double up winning a race and then grind back down......Anyways I eventually got to like 30 bbs when a guy opened, I 3 bet JJ and he shoved 910 and I won...from there the ft came, it was prety nitty overall - when we got 3 handed it was me bbb333 or whatever his name is - a very good player - and a very weak non regular.....bbb wanted to get 17k rather then 15k a piece chopping, so the deal was never made....he eventually got coolered running ak into aa - this was great for me since bbb was easily the best left.....when we got hu he wanted to chop and ended up giving me 19,2 when he got like 17 something.....ill take it
hopefully feb can not go to the shitter after peaking the first week
