Day 13: +191 in 9 hours (total +2297 in 128 hours)

It was a fight today, played good and was rewarded in the last hour from being down to making a solid win. The goal for this trip is to make $200/day and so far I am a little behind schedule.

Day 14: -$236 in 10 hours (total +$2061 in 138 hours)

Second week result is -$5 in 66 hours which is of course a disappointment. Today I played with a lot of Vegas pro's and I should have table changed better/more instead of playing with these guys for so many hours. Most of them have more experience then me and I see them as more complete players then me. I need to pick the tourist fish table and not the 9 handed (wannabe) pro player tables where there is no EV for me.

Still happy with "the grind" and feel strong for making a lot of A-game hours the next couple of days.

I'm curious what you do for a living that lets you take 3 months off work. Ive been following this thread for years and have always liked to see what a focused grinder can accomplish. GL this series

Day 16: -$198 in 10.5 hours (total +$2583 in 156.5 hours)

Now $600 behind my hoped schedule of $200/day. For the 4 trips I am now in position number 3 and if I make 700 tomorrow then I will improve to rank 2. These are my goals (in poker you are not in full control of reaching your goals, but always good to have an aiming point)

@mojojo16 Thx for the GL. I have no full time job and just earn some money here and there. Important to keep track of my life BR and as long as that is a healthy amount I can sustain my relax (is playing 156.5 hours of poker in 16 days relax ) way of life.

But you're doing what you love on your schedule, and you obviously have the work ethic to hours in and study your data so good for you.

You'll turn it around by the end of the weekend

@Natamus ..... how did you know?

Today was by far the most fun day. Lots of laughter at the poker table (and made a nice profit also).

Day 19: -$367 in 10 hours (total +$3455 in 185.5 hours)

Started the day being down about $700 after about 3 hours in. 2 times I had the second nuts and my opponent had the nuts (needing both his cards to beat my second nuts!). Also I lost a $500 pot against a guy who called my pre-flop 4-bet all-in with KJo!
I did not panic and there was no real tilt and I turned it around to loosing only $367 (good to have no Stop-Loss).

Day 20: -$13 in 10.5 hours (total +$3442 in 196 hours)

Again began with -$500 pretty fast after which I recovered to make it a lesser loss. I see the Vegas pro players make a lot of value out of fish while I seem to make mistakes against the fish. Have to improve my game. After being card dead I should not start playing crap hands, because I do NOT get respect and get into trouble during those hands.

Day 21: -$203 in 9.5 hours (total +$3239 in 205.5 hours)

Total hourly now dropped to $15.76 and after 3 losing days my moral is down a little bit.

Very tired at the moment. Playing 10 hours a day over a period of 3 weeks is not easy and I hope today I can get a good rest before my new poker day will start.

GL Marta, thanks for sharing results on here. What do you use your poker comps on?

Day 24: +$1071 in 11 hours (total +$5230 in 234.5 hours)

Left a good table, but after 11 hours of play I was too tired to continue. Best day result this trip so far and all statistics are looking good now.

@DonkeyCopter I use my comps for food at the poker table. Not sure what else would be logic to use my comps for.

Day 25: -$62 in 10 hours (total +$5168 in 244.5 hours)

When I look at the graphs the third trip impresses me with almost 8k in 26 days. This trip I feel like I am running on my average skill level which is fine with me (goal still $200/day).

Day 27: -$994 in 9.5 hours (total +$4261 in 263.5 hours)

Played very good and only one time I remember making a small mistake semi-bluffing a calling station guy who could not lay down second pair on the turn when I 3betted him in a 3 way pot which should have looked extremely strong, but he did not get it (and my draw did not hit). I should have called the guy only and see if I hit the river or not before investing more into the pot. Today could have easily been my best result so far, but everything went south.

Day 28: +$129 in 10 hours (total +$4390 in 273.5 hours)

I am still on the bad side of variance at the moment, but the grind in an endurance game and things will turn around sooner or later (I hope).

Day 29: +$744 in 10 hours (total +$5134 in 283.5 hours)

After being card dead for long I thought "It's gonna be one of those nights", but then all of a sudden things go fast and you end up with a 744 profit night ...

@SquidFace I am proud of the hours I played so far. Would have been nice if I had made your hourly combined with that :-)
