Playing more hours
Since my parents are gone, like I've said, I've been able to log more hours in poker. I've recently switched to a new easier player site, but these results are pretty typical of the swings I face when I play poker.
DATE+HOURS+NET GAIN/LOSS
26TH 2 HOURS $108
27TH 2 HOURS $88
27TH 3 HOURS $56
27TH 0.5 HOURS $4
27TH 1 HOURS $72
28TH 0.5 HOURS $104
28TH 1.5 HOURS $38
28TH 3 HOURS $-298
28TH 0.5 HOURS $ 3
28TH 0.5 HOURS $129
29TH 0 HOURS $176
29TH 1 HOURS $75
29TH 0 HOURS $53
30TH 1 HOURS $68
31TH 3 HOURS $-144
31TH 0.5 HOURS $183
31TH 0.5 HOURS $-2
31TH 1.5 HOURS $-142
31TH 0 HOURS $11
31TH 0.5 HOURS $92
31TH 1 HOURS $90
1ST 1 HOURS $182
1ST 1 HOURS $4
Total hours: 25.5
Profit: 890
Dollars per hour: 35 dollars an hour.
As I've said, this is a good showing, and I don't usually make this much, the ups and downs look very similar to what usually happens, five good sessions then one bad one.
This is also before I get my bonus money which should be a few more hundred dollars for the time I've played. You get bonus money called rakeback. Rake = money the site takes from each pot (this is how they make their money). Rake back is you get a refund on some of that rake. I'm signed up through a site so I get 30 percent of my rake back.
I hope to stick it out at this level for a few months. I want to try going up in stakes one more time by September. By going up in stakes again, I'm pretty sure I could make a comfortable living (if I do well).
