So I started off the month horribly. I really wasn't sleeping well and was focusing too much on the short-term wins and losses (mostly the latter) and I found I tilted very easily. It didn't help that I was coolered quite a few times by ridiculous hands (AKvs63s????), but I've come to realize that in poker it is in the probabilities that you'll be be on occasion AA vs 24os type crap, just have to understand that LONG-TERM, you'll be profitable. Easy to say and I'll be the first to admit that I haven't perfected that mindset, but I'm on my way to it. At one point I was down 10BI and due to some solid play (and a couple suck-outs of course), I've narrowed it down to just 2BI. Definitely on cloud 9 right now, especially after a +3.5BI session today in just 600 hands. I had some good flops but also so good calls on the river just not believing that the villain had what they wanted to me to think they had.
Also while looking at my stats, I recall at the end of March that I wanted to tighten up a bit in order to cut down the variance, but in reality I've actually done the opposite. I think playing 18/16/3 is perfectly fine for this level and that it'll pay off in the end (with maybe a bit more variance). In summary, I'm very happy with my stats as I made sure to reduce my AF from >4 last month to a much more reasonable 3 so far this month. Seeing results from my hard work always feels good.
As for my bankroll, thanks to some winning sessions lately and my tourney win, my BR is now up to $475! I'll be playing about 1k hands tomorrow morning and thus I'll be unlocking another 2BI bonus so there's a solid chance that I'll be profitable for April and be able to comfortably move up to 25NL beginning in May.
I think that's about it for now, as I said before, I'm really proud of my stats and I'll be looking to focus even more once my exams finish on the 24th of April. Should be able to hit 20k hands though and I'M JIZ-ACKED!
