havnt been playing much since last update but when ive been playing ive been running good 
wont be playing more this week since its this big weekend in sweden so going to a place on the west coast with my friends tomorrow and staying until sunday! will try to put in more hours next week wont be hard to beat this week volume wise, and hopefully the good run continues. planning to do a half year recap in the end of june, think it can be fun to post lots of graphs and maybe some fun hands from the year so far

except for june ive been playing 130h/month so far this year which i think is alright, so ye i think its fine for a summer month because i dont want to spend all summer inside in front of the computer when i have the benefit to be free and do fun things with my friends. i dont really think that much i try to enjoy everything for what it is right now, and i think playing 80h and winning almost 5k in june is great. but ofc i would like to move up in stakes, and i would have been able to do that if i hadnt spent so much money outside of the tbls. but next big thing in life is that im moving to australia in the end of august and that will probably dont mean that i have less life expenses so its kind of hard to move up in stakes then when i have to think about not making too much damage to my liferoll. but to answer your question, yes i am happy with this, for now.
maybe if i was playing staked like you it would be easier to move up in stakes because then i would have my liferoll in bankaccount and staked roll on the site and thats a whole different thing, so that might be an option in the future if i get the possibility. glgl!

but i like the freedom about it too so i guess thats why i from time to time take some time off just to enjoy other things in life. im moving there for a while havnt really decided for how long yet but at least 4 month i think. seems like a nice country so im really looking forward to an autumn with a lot of good weather and grinding!

Half year report, been a fun year so far pokerwise! been playing much and won pretty much too i think the first 3 months of this year was very important for me, it wasnt the months that i won the most but i took my game to another level and i honestly think that i learned more about the game in the first 3-4 months this year than in the whole 2012. im confident that i keep getting better for every time i sit down at the tables and thats a satisfying feeling so i hope i can keep on putting in alot of hours the second half of this year and hopefully im able to keep the rungood to, havnt had a losing month so far which ofc is really really nice. so heres the year in numers!
- ive played for 756h.
- around 305k hands, close to 60k hands from january is missing.
- all in all im up around 32k$ dont have january at stars included in graph and up like 1k live.
stars
svs
so, for the future i will just keep on grinding alot and hopefully i can keep on winning and try to make my way up through the stakes!

2 weeks into july, played some in the beginning of the week but went to the west coast with my friends over the weekend so havnt played a single hand last two days but played a 4h session now when i got home and lost some.
Not having the best month so far, havnt played that much but the cards isnt falling my way at all and i havnt really been playing my a-game either. will probably put in more volume this week and i hope to catch some goodrun and ill try to bring my best to the tables

Havnt played much this week so far either but anyway, began with 5-6 short losing sessions in a row which always sucks when you cant seem to book a winning session. but last 2 sessions have been good so is on the right track again. up around 1800$ so far this month including rakeback and im far from satisfied but overall im pretty happy with how i have been playing and i dont like to complain as long as im winning so hope i can continue in the right direction for the rest of the month not sure if i will play much this weekend due to other plans but ill take it as it comes.

Have been lazy with updates lately but from now on i will do more updates. have got a staking/coaching deal done with a midstakes player which feels really good and really looking forward to play alot of poker this fall! got started a couple of days ago and will play plo100euro and plo100-200 at ongame, microgaming and 888 from now on because my backer think its much more value there so will give it a shot, always fun to do new accounts im off to a good start, have mostly been playing at microgaming so far because its been most tables running there and havnt got my 888 account going yet have to verify it before i can get going over there.
anyway heres graph after 2 days of play at microgaming, its a little wrong because didnt get hm to work in the beginning so it should be 1500$ish instead and up around 120$ at ongame but havnt been playing that much there yet.

didnt played that long anyway only like 1-2h and won 900$, so finished the day around 1800$ up won small at ongame too always nice to book a big winning day after a big losing day. but decided to instaquit after i lost a 800+ euro pot where i got it in against 4 outs kind of sick.. happy with the day anyway ofc but probably no more gaming tonight.

okey so it have happened a few things since last update, ive decided to cancel the stake deal because i didnt think it worked that good for me. just felt stressed about it and was afraid to get deep into make up so i think it was for the best. anyway, was down 150$ post rakeback when i quit so not that big damage done.
so due to my downswing last month and my upcoming aussie trip ive been stepping down to plo50$ at stars, been playing alot last 2 days around 20h but i cant seem to break this bad circle its really tough for me at the tables right now and the cards always seems to fall the wrong way. but what to do, will keep on putting in volume upcoming days and i hope to turn it around soon because im getting so tired of running bad.
guess i cant complain too much though because ive been running really good so far this year but i guess thats why its strikes even harder because its been a while since ive been on a downswing. isnt down that much though think i ended last month like 800$ down and down like 500$ this month but still its frustrating not to win.
this is last 2 days, almost 10k hands so at least im putting in some volume
