My First Graph - Over 14BB/100
Posted: 23/02/2009
OK my beloved poker fans, groupies, worshippers, stalkers and random readers, I have a little something for you.
Not much has changed since my last update as I haven't played much. I've been helping some of Tagpoker's micro limit grinders with their games.
I have been really trying to produce a graph of my results which has been only slightly tricky as Minted Poker doesn't support Poker Tracker. But alas, I found a hand history converter on the 2+2 forums that converts Everleaf hand histories into Pokerstars format so that PT can read them. (yay!)
I've also found it hard to stay focused playing 6max micro stake games as I'm used to playing higher and as such think some of my motivation has been lacking. I played in some fishy NL20 games under rolled and even played a super donkey for half a buyin in HUNL50 which goes against the point of this challenge. So to combat this I have been playing on Minted poker's micro stake heads up games. The rake is killer but my edge is crazy compared to these players, and along with 40% rake back I have managed to run up some easy money, whilst staying focused by playing a new format.
I've just started playing HUNL20 in this challenge and I'll keep you posted of the ups and downs along the way. Here is the graph of my first 10,000 hands played.
The sites huge lack of traffic is more than made up for by the rake back and also the fact that the few players that are on there happen to be the best fish I've ever tasted.
Notice also that my graph is only $418 profit, the other $100 in my roll is all rake back, pretty sweet and just goes to show how much money you're missing out on if you're playing without it.
Good luck guys.
