This post will probably be lost admist the sea of other September Results blog entries, so this is mainly for logging purposes. 

After rakeback, promotions, bonus, whatever, i'm up like +5500 on the month, which is pretty crucial considering how shitty I was running in August and the start of September. Finally running goot though! Thanks FTP :D

This month I'm in a small prop bet for me to just hit at least 40k hands, which to some is nothing but to me is quite a bit. I also made a micro stakes group coaching thing for a few friends which I think should go really well. GL october.</summary>

        <summary>I post blog entries so infrequently that I doubt anyone's going to read this, but I'm quite possibly the worst player in the world right now, or at least I feel like it. It's actually come to the point where I'm immensely close to quitting poker altogether and have to start thinking about my alternatives for making money. If you go through my posts for the past several months you'll see nothing but the same whining and losing that has perpetuated til now. [b]I'm officially a break-even, if not losing, player after once being able to break 200nl on FTP for 5.5ptbb over 200k hands[/b]. I won't get into details, the gist of it can be found in my earlier posts. But basically

- Since I didn't post an august results thread, I'm probably down somewhere between 3k and 4k in August alone.
- [b]I've effectively broken even starting March, which comes out to around 180k hands or so of breakeven[/b]. I would post a graph but hands prior to May have been lost, and I'm nowhere near my desktop right now which contains all my hands since then, bu feel free to peruse previous entries.
- I'm also in quite a bit of a financial situation, which means I need to cash out the remainder of my operating roll and possibly find a stake from my higher stakes friends.

Currently I'm in Japan on the vacation of my life (yes this trip did kinda contribute to my financial situation, I'm not making excuses or anything :p) and have played a bunch of poker here on my off days and have been getting absolutely manhandled at 200 and 100nl. 

This is kinda one giant whine entry now that I think about it, so I'll quit complaining. To wrap up, basically within a month I should be able to figure out whether or not I want to quit this game for good (because all the time wasted and emotional strain this game gives me is no good whatsoever for me, I'd rather focus on my other forms of income). For the time being, I'm effectively [b]BUSTO![/b] GL to me.</summary>

Sigh, another sub-par month. I guess I really just suck? I dunno, but I'm on a 60k breakeven right now (if I were to expand my graph to previous months). I did have a nice rally towards the end so that I didn't end the month in the red or breakeven, so that's nice, and admittedly I did run pretty good in that stretch, so let's hope it continues. Graph is 18k hands at 2/4, 20k hands at 1/2.

I AM making significant adjustments though. I'm now playing a tighter style, as I'm usually 27/22 but now I've tightened up to roughly 23/19. I might even be adjusting this to 21/17. Overall I'm bluffing a lot less, and just being a bit more solid overall, while retaining my lag post-flop knowledge but with now I have better hands since I'm folding marginal hands a lot more :P.

So I'm basically a tag now, which is kinda unfun but I really need to focus on just making money right now because I'm about to be dicked by a shitton of expenses. Fall quarter is starting up so rent + tuition + buying shit for the new apartment is going to own me. Also I'm heading to Japan (and possibly Macau for APPT Macau) in 24 days so that's going to burn my wallet for sure. Going to try to grind as much as possible while I'm still in the states, but I'm ofc brining my laptop to grind a bit while overseas (staying in Japan for a whole month).

GL everyone


OH YEAH some hands since I've been forgetting:
