Still Rolling

Today was another good, short day of poker with some nice results. This post is going to have a lot of images, so brace yourselves. Here are my results for the day:

And the graph:

I love it when graphs look like this. Lately, I feel I have been making some really good decisions and its really been paying off. I have been winning a lot of medium sized pots by making good reads and really extracting value from one pair and other marginally made hands. I really attribute most of this to sticking to one or two games and not hopping around playing something different each day. Here is my updated September graph:

After that poor 2/4 decision (straight line down in graph), I have stuck to mainly $100 max with some 1/2 thrown in and I have really been focusing. As you can see, it has been almost straight uphill since then, and while I have been running decent, I think most of it is because of my new ability to concentrate fully while playing. I am up about $900 from cash games and $145 from tournaments, so I have reached my $1000 refined monthly goal. I didn't think $1500 was going to possible, but with the way things have been going, I definitely have a shot at getting there by the end of the month.

As for life matters, Lauren and I have to decided to take a long weekend to Baltimore on October 18-21. I can't remember if I traveled there when I was younger or not, but either way, I am really excited. They have one of the largest aquariums in the country I believe (I love sea life, especially behind 6-inch glass), plus some great crab. For those of you that don't know me, crab is definitely my favorite crustacean and I haven't had any in a long time. It will be nice to get away and just enjoy a city with Lauren so I will definitely post a trip report when it's done...
