Week 2 Report
Stats:
Casino Bonuses: +$149.45
Poker Bonuses: +$42
Poker Play: -$87.75
Expenses: -$55
This week WAS better than last week in terms of money, however not much better, and it wasn't down to better poker play (or increased poker winnings). I started the week off well at the poker tables quickly getting up 20 odd dollars at Will Hill while clearing the last of the monthly poker bonus. However I proceeded to go on a nasty down turn, and once I had unlocked all the bonus I was down $61 on poker play. Titan poker didn't go much better, and I ended up down $26.75, and managed to unlock a very small portion of the bonus, $5.
The above poker play happened over monday, tuesday and wednesday morning, then I didn't play any more poker for the rest of the week. This was due to the fact that I was, and am currently, reviewing my poker strategies, by writing a strategy essay on the content of Small Stakes Hold'em. I have decided not to play any more poker until I have gone through the entire book and I have digested and understood the content, I am currently about 1/3 of the way through.
Poker Summary:
Bonuses:
Titan Poker: +$5
Will Hill: +$37
Play:
Will Hill: -$61
Titan Poker: -$26.75
Poker Expenses:
Poker Tracker: -$55
In other poker news, I FINALLY got my Neteller Account ceritified after sending heaps of emails and spending about half an hour on hold sorting it out with customer support. I bought poker tracker and I downloaded pokerpatterns which is a poker tracker compatible program for graphing. Poker Tracker is very cool, however I don't really have enough hands recorded to make any analysis meaningful, but I did have fun playing around with my stats etc. and looking at the graphs. Unfortunately though Poker Tracker doesn't support Titan poker, which is where I'll be playing for the majority of the coming weeks to unlock the sign up bonus. I haven't worked it all out yet and how to analyse opponents etc, but I will look more closely into once I get back into poker after finishing my essay. I've but the cost of poker tracker ($55) as a poker expense, because I paid for it out of my Neteller account, so I no longer have the money, and it is poker related, so it fits that it should come out of my bankroll.
Since I was wasn't playing much poker, I had more time to spend doing casino bonuses, and you can check out the write ups in my Casino Bonuses Played thread (link in sidebar).
Casino Bonus Summary:
UK Betting: -$30.20
Cherry Casino: +$104
Sportingbet USA: +$75.65
Therefore my overall result for the week was a profit of $48.70. Still not all that great, but better than last week. I am glad that I'm still moving forewards, rather than back. Currently I'm aiming for the $3000 bankroll goal in order to move up stakes from 1/2 to 2/4. I've also got some casino bonus plans brewing, but I'll post about them another time.
