Upswing into the clouds.

So after struggling in the beginning of the month, things have really picked up for me as of late. I don't think my play has changed much, but I do believe that I'm being a bit more critical in my thinking of what my opponents are on and acting accordingly. I've also had a nice run of hands that have thankfully been paid off. Just to give you an idea of how hot I'm running, over the last 4 400 hands, I'm 13BI or 15ptbb/1000 hands. That's nasty.

I haven't played much the last little while with exams going on (2 down, 2 to go) but I've been making sure to play every day so I can participate in the $2k freeroll at the end of the month. I played 600 hands tonight after I got from my exam and finished up almost a BI, but I played the worst that I've played in a while. Wasn't truly focused, a little burnt out, and just wasn't all there today. I was up about 2.5BI with about 200 hands left but I donked off about .5BI and lost a flush to an improbable full house. All the same, still nice to pull off another winning session and I obviously hope to keep that going.

Here are my stats as of the 19th of April:
*note: having some trouble with uploading my stats, firewall is being stupid. in a nutshell, I'm playing 18/16/3 over 12 000 hands and I'm up 4BI for the month (1.85ptbb/1000).

On other news, I sold my BMO stock yesterday at $48.01 after purchasing it about a month ago for 41.46. A nice 15% is always lovely. I'm just going to leave it all in my account for now and hopefully get back into the market when things (hopefully) tank in the near future again. That's it for now I figure. I'll be playing for 20 minutes before I study to get my FTP points but I'll hopefully blog tomorrow night with 7 or 8 hands that I'm not happy with.
