Hard work pays off

Hi all, in earlier threads I mentioned how I am a much better tournament player than cash game player. I was not satisfied with that. I have been working really hard at improving my cash game and it is paying off. Attached is a graph of my cash game stats. I have been playing 10nl. My bank roll is high enough to be playing 25nl but I am comfortable where I am at right now and I feel I still have more work to do on my cash game before im comfortable enough to move up. Just because a bankroll is big enough doesnt mean you have to move up, right? One hole in my cash game I found was that I was taking too many risks, and trying to win other players stacks. I was not patient enough and didnt let the game come to me. I was trying to make things happen. I finally realized that if I just playe tight solid poker the pots would add up, and they did. The blinds stayed the same so there was no need for me to take risks. I just sit and wait and get paid off by others who play like I used to. Hard work pays off. All you have to do is put in the time to do it.

Nice work and keep it up! Seems like you have a positive attitude and playing tight solid poker is a great idea!

Thanks. My investment in pokertracker has really helpped me. It already paid for itself.

yes that looks great ... keep focus and dont loose your edge

that amount is very easy to loose though at that level and i know

THanks

Thanks for the info, every little bit helps.

Congratulations. May your next 300 hands work out as well for you as your last 300 did.

small sample, nice heater.

Now you know. And knowing is half the battle.

Good luck. I wish you much continued success.

Its 3000 hands, not 300

Good luck and wish you continued success!

I am also starting to get my toes wet playing on the cash tables but for now I am just playing on the 1cent 2cent blinds. It feels like I can get a good amount of experience and practise for cheap or maybe even win a few dollars.

i think what hes saying here is that the upswing was in the last 3-500 hands of the 3000. good job anyways man.keep it up.im sure if you play the way your playing and not take too many risks you will be able to avoid any negative variance. good luck and keep us updated on how it goes.
