Hi
I think most of you have been following facebook with encouraging comments during the last five weeks. Here is the summary.
I had a horrible start - and went 20 days without a cash (nor even a dinner break) - I played some smaller tournaments and sit n gos (0/14) and those went atrociously (and I used to grind sngs on PokerStars).
I was so fed up one day - I thought I'm just gonna play the 250 daily on my own dime and time rather than the 1ks, and 1500s... As luck would have it, we chopped it 7 ways at the end.
From then on, I put dailies and small tournaments in the package - as I REALLY wanted to generate a return for investors. And sure enough, after that, results poured in. They were smaller cashes in mostly smaller tournaments, but it was something.
The main could not have gone worse. I had more sets, more big pairs, more big broadways than in the whole prior month. I finally busted about 40bb deep (still very much in it) with 88 on 985 - the money went in and they hit a 2 outer with KK. I flopped KK on KQ7 and bombed flop - they had limp-called a 7x raise pre with ajo and smashed the turn.
I went super deep in the PLO bounty - ran well played great. But on day 2, I was off center for about 20m and played 2 hands stupidly. I still had heaps, but folded in a 4 bet pot with 35-40pct equity which the punters say was a mistake.
So - total proceeds are 16589 against an actual buy in total of 37389 (a bit less). So 1% gets about 180 back.
