Jill: don't read. This is a poker edition>

Summary for the month: PAIN.

Pretty bad month. Lots of swings, which means I've definitely opened up my range a bit, and am trying more things, more hands, more plays. Which, long term, is going to be good, I hope.

Overall: Down $3.16 for the month, to 190.93, although I did hit 200 during that time.
Stats: 113 sessions over 20 days, 5292 hands, 24 hours.
Down $.06/100 hands, -1.74BB/100, -$.13/hr, -3.85BB/hr.
5NL: up .87, to 21.74 for the year. That's 4.47BB/hr
2NL: down 4.03, to 63.49 for the year. That's 5.96BB/hr.

Tournaments:
4 entered, 1 cash. 1 horrific beat in a blogging freeroll today.
Down -$.65 for the month.
The blogging free roll tournament today just hurt like hell. I had a full house, 10s over aces after the turn, and he hit an 8 on the river to give him aces over 8s. Win the hand, and I'm in the top 10, and looking at a freeroll for a cash. That would have been awesome. Top prize was 1K. Hell.

Also, I earned 127.20 VPPs, to give me 684 for the year. I will obviously hit 750 next month, to give me ten free dollars. Which is nice.

That's my poker blog.

I guess I should list my goals for the next month:
GET ABOVE 200 and stay there.
Make a commitment to try a couple of Quartermillion satellites. But I kind of want to be in the 210 range before I do that once a week.
STAY POSITIVE AND AVOID TILT!!!!

That's all.
