Day 30: +$604 in 8 hours (total +$5738 in 291.5 hours)

After 3 hours of poker I was at +1k at my max. Then it went down to end with +604 (I was happy to stop and only make 8 hours of play today).

Day 31: +$550 in 9 hours (total +$6288 in 300.5 hours)

The results are good lately, but fatigue is also kicking in. Difficult to get into a rhythm, because it seems I can not sleep for 7 straight hours here in Vegas.

Feeling very happy after playing my A-game today and despite losing big I did not tilt at all. Lots of bad luck and my opponents knew they were lucky. Expecting the long run will fix my bad luck :-)

Calling of bluffing opponents was today my biggest gain. $500 away from my hoped schedule.

Played OK and got rewarded (today variance was on my side). Getting really tired of the nonhuman hours that I make so have to take a good rest today.

Day 39: +$444 in 10 hours (total +$8203 in 382.5 hours)

Grinded to +700, then down to +290 (overplaying TPTK on the flop when I obviously was behind when my opponent showed a lot of strength...) and then ended with +444 so closing in on Trip 3 total result now.

Day 40: +$114 in 8 hours (total +$8317 in 390.5 hours)

After 5 hours I had to take a break and after some relaxation time I got the feeling of playing at an other place besides the 4 big rooms. There was only 1/2 there so I joined in. Never do that again, because I get a lot of fancy play syndrome and the other players are not smart enough to pick up on my build table image or the line I play on all streets. I actually missed the pro players from the big 4 a bit :-)

Solid uneventful grind day (where are all the poker players ... Vegas getting empty).

so much props to your work ethic and consistency.

this has probably been asked before, but why stay at 1/2 when you could likely beat 2/5 at a much better clip?

@thabighurt35 moving up in stakes to make more per hour is a possibility for sure, but ..... this is already 2/5 :-)

Day 46: +$206 in 8 hours (total +$10175 in 444 hours)

Looks like the variance has disappeared.

@JackStraightUp Yes it has been 2/5. My 1/2 result would be something like $10/h or lower I think. Just do not like to play 1/2. Maybe in the future I should try to go for a full 5/10, but not sure if I can keep up with the pro players there.

@Natamus I just past my halfway mark 2 days ago

Not much in the positive, but already my 9th positive day in a row. My record is 10 winning days in a row (did that twice) and I am motivated to break this record.

Started the day with about -240 and it looked like my winning streak was going to end, but eventually it was a + again!

Where are you from? Are you happy with $200/day before expenses? Where do you stay out here?

I keep thinking the same think...lots of work for a little bit of scratch.

Don't get me wrong, I'm jealous that you can play so much, but there are easier ways to make $20+/hr.

@p566 @Imafish I do not want to get too personal, but yes I am happy with $200/day, because I am having fun doing this grind.
