Yes it is. I am just gonna jump in and start this.
Many of you have read my "I am now gonna do xxxxx" threads before. This one will start different.
My background is, I have lost between 2-4K in the last 4 years. Not a bad amount, if you look at the cost of entertainment......... I have played around 1 million hands (many of them drunk....well, thats me folks) Stakes in cash from 2nl to 100nl. Many MTTs and SnGs, ranging from .10 cent to 50$. I have been up a few thousand and eventually dropped it all again. The losses I speak of are only deposit losses, not including moneys won and lost again. Bottom line, I was down to 160$ on stars, and had invested so much time in poker only to not only not take money home, but actually be down. My wife was less than amused and read me the riot act. Money or GTFO. She had a point, and as of last August, I pretty much stopped playing, cept for the odd CC FR.
Since End of February, I started at 2nl with my 160. Now I am at 360. 75K hands. I will post graphs. Not all hands are in the graph since I played some on my laptop and have not transferred the hands, as well as a bit of the money is from the odd SnG and stars rewards, so the winning in the graph is a bit lower.
My stats are not optimal, but I feel they are fine for 2nl. I call a lot when I think the situation is good for it, and the 2nl players are so easy to call then either hit and stack or out play post.
I will try to post hands but my time is so limited, and I will spend most of it playing. My wife is still like "Poker, again? Really?" And, since we have children and I am self employed (musician) she wants to see me working on making money. When I say "honey, I made $19.50 today, only took me 3 1/2 hours" she is understandably not real impressed. Especially when I have to follow that with "Oh yea......yesterday I lost $11.80 in 3 hours" lol
So I will not be like always regularly posting, but I will try to post some hands. Depending on work, I may have long breaks in between.
But this is my last try at poker, barring unexpected wealth. I will never deposit again. At least I have curbed my drinking while playing...... I know I have said that before...lol.
Graphs to follow, comments welcome.
