Day 1 Report
Starting Bankroll: $2187
Results:
-$100 : Lost Ace Club sign up bonus and deposit
+$22 : Playing 1/2 Limit Holdem at Full Tilt Poker
End Bankroll: $2109
I decided to play only Full Tilt this week, as I still have $120 of my sign up bonus left, and its only valid for another 4 days, so I want to unlock as much of that as possible. I think I was a little bit optimistic about the number of hands I could crunch an hour. The tables I were playing at were averaging between 50 and 70 hands per hour, with an average of 30-50% of players to the flop. I still stand by my goal of 10 000 hands for the week, I'll just have to put more hours into achieving it than I originally thought. I think I will aim to play at tables with at least 30% of players to the flop.
I started off the day well, winning some biggish hands early, but then altimately got too loose and was chasing too much and took a nasty down turn to being under by about $40. I then had to dig my heals in and focus and I ground it out and ended up finishing strongly with some big hands at the end: result: +11 BB. I played about 3 1/2 hours mostly with 3 tables open, but up to 4 for a little while, then down to 2 near then end. I probably played about 630 hands, which would give me a winrate of 1.75 BB/100 hands. However its still very early days yet and these statistics mean NOTHING in the short run.
I also played some more of the WR for the Ace Club deposit bonus, but ended up losing it all (I was already down to 80 from 200 from previous play). I also chipped away some more of the massive WR for Windows Casino deposit bonus, and I should complete that tomorrow.
Finally I downloaded poker tracker for the trial, however I intend to buy it anyway, but I'm having some trouble with my hand histories... they seem to have not been recorded, so i'll have to work that out. I'll have to spend some time over the next few days learning how to use the software, but it should be very helpful to keep track of my stats.
I won't be doing a report every day for this blog, but of course I had to for the first day.
