Feb Review and March Plans

I didn't hold out huge hope for Feb, I had to commit a lot of days to real life work + its also the shortest month in terms of days. I only managed to play 9 short sessions during the month so my volume really did suck :( 


Although I'm obviously disappointed with such a poor month at least I managed a small profit for the hands I did play. I also managed to spin some points up cashing in the Sunday Storm for $34.29 from a 700 FPP ticket. I also had a $5 ring game ticket on Fulltilt and decided to have some fun with that on the Adrenaline Rush tables where I run that up to $20 and then up to $50 on Roulette LOL. A swift transfer back to Pokerstars and the hit and run was complete. That's the first and last time I will play Roulette online. I'm pretty confident they let you heater on your first session at the house games! 

    

Total Hands- 16,634 

10nl-  $56.38
25nl-  $51.41

1,023 VPP's 

FPP value- $6.70 
Sunday Storm Ticket- $34.29 
Fulltilt $5 Ticket- $50 

Total = $198.78


I'm really optimistic about March and hoping to have some great volume combined with more play at 25nl. There's 31 days to work with and I'm only working 7 of those days so shouldn't be any excuses during March. 

Targets:

100k hands 
70k at 10nl
30k at 25nl

After the terrible volume of Feb I'm going to be back to Silver star which is a bit annoying. I should get Platinum Star for my efforts in March which will be nice. I know when your putting in enough hands to make Platinum star at 25nl the extra rewards you receive are pretty insignificant but the extra star on your VIP badge is enough for most people... aghhhh, the power of  Pokerstars Marketing for you lol

New 10nl Boss in town

There's a sick grinder at the 10nl  zoom pool! He's a Supernova Elite x5 


If you wondered how much volume you need to put in to make Supernova elite at 10nl it's simply about 15 million hands a year or 1.25 million per month or 40k a day. EASY!

Feb Low Volume

We have reached the half way point and I have barely been able to play any poker so far this month. I have had to do real world work quite a bit and then the free time I have had I've spent with my girl friend. I think I have played about 3 short session and played approx 5k hands for a profit of about $50 LOL

I did have the last few days free but I spent 2 days setting up my new PC. I underestimated how long it would take to get everything set up. Also I downloaded HEM2 + Table Ninja 2 and imported my database. I'm really happy with how smooth everything is running and HEM2 seems really cool with lots of powerful filters etc etc. 

I'm probably going to have about 5 or 6 days to grind for the rest of the month so at this juncture my target is to just put in at least a 30k hand month and make Gold Star, considering I'm still playing the 10NL tables. Also I will do a post all about my grind station soon because quite a few people are interested and since I've just upgraded my PC. Tomorrow is Sunday Funday so I will try and put in a big volume day and probably chuck in a few of the LOLAMENTS for jokes! 

P.S Tonight I saw the new Lego movie and it was AWESOME! It inspired me to change my avatar on Stars :)
