Session 1
Played pretty focussed playing 4 tables maybe called raises on flop sometimes a bit to light without a clear plan for the turn. In total I played 1056 hands over 69 min and won $ 5,85

Session 2
Still played alright, although I was clearly a bit less focussed so kept the session a bit short. I total I played 949 hands over 69 min and won $ 7,75

Had some more time on my hands tonight so I played an other session

Session 3
Played alright till near the end where I was starting to get less focussed which made a nice session end up pretty much Break even :(. I played 972 hands over 68 min and won $0,54.

Evaluation
Did alright although some known mistakes clearly slipped in. Clearly wasn't playing my A-game thoughout the sessions. In total I played 2985 hands and won $ 13,99

Sorry, for not updating in a while been a bit sick and also didn't go so well in a while ( well untill today )

So on Friday I only played 602 and lost $ 18,45 mainly because I was a bit sick and wasn't in the right mindset either.

Yesterday I got at least some volume in as I played 2 sessions which both didn't go to well. Think I still played reasonable but just kept missing postflop while my opponent kept hitting those flops appartly exept when I did have a hand. The second session didn't go any better and because I noticed I was getting pretty frustrated at that point I decided to cut the session short
Session 1 I played 1231 hands over 74 min and lost $ 31,58
Session 2 I played 664 over 41 min and lost $ 27,63
In total I lost $ 59,21 on Saterday in cash. Also played some tournaments (mostly freerolls ) and didn't manage to cash there either ;(.

For today it whened a lot better and also completed the next stellar reward for $ 50

Session 1
Played alright but didn't had a lot of sleep the last couple of days so decided to keep it short and take a quick nap :). played 231 hands and lost $ 0,55 in 15 min

Session 2
After I had a good rest I played much better in my 2nd session. In total I played 1480 hands and won $ 30,70

Evaluation
Played pretty well in general and made few mistakes. Only caught myself once making a river call that was a bit to light. In total I played 1710 hands and won $ 30,15

I have been a bit lazy lately keeping up with posting on this blog, getting in enough volume and analysing the game. Sorry about that :).

And i isn't even that I had bad results. My results have been pretty decent as well. So far:

5-3: I played 1519 hands and won $ 5,57
6-3: I played 1110 hands and won $ 19,96
7-3: I played 3068 hands and lost $ ,391
9-3: I played 1104 hands and lost $ 20,84

on 8-3 I didn't play any cashgames but instead played some mtt's. I total I played 8 tourneys as well as a $ 33 satalite for the Sunday Million I got for depositing $ 100. That one started well as I doubled up quickly after I flopped trips against someone that had top pair Q kicker. Unfortunately I lost a big part of my stack when someone 3 betted All-in with KQo vs my AK and hit a Q ... twice! after that I pushed 33 on the button and ran into KK. At at point I only had 2 bb and unfortunately failed to double up.

I did however get 2nd in a $ 5,5 short stack tourney for $ 220,40 and 87 in a $ 3,30 super KO for something about $ 17 for 87th place and for $ 5,90 in ounties. I say about because my hud seem to not work that well with that tourney as he thinks I won $ 929,65.

Wow, really been lazy so far this month and it's pretty clear I probably not going to be getting gold status this month besides not getting in a lot of volume I also did next to nothing on training. Hope to chance that soon. here is at least on update:

on 10/3 I played 1652 hands and won $ 8, 58
on 12/3 I played 946 hands and won $ 10,18
on 13/3 I played 1646 hands and lost $ 18,79
on 15/3 I played 515 hands and won $ 0,11
on 16/3 I played 1097 hands and lost $ 29,62

Also I played some more tournaments as trying to get win a sat for the Sunday million on 15 march for 9 mil gar.

on 14/3 I played 19 tourneys and mt sng's and won in total $ 15,94 unfortunately I didn't manage to qualify for the million
on 15/3 I played 16 tournaments and mt sng's and didn't cash in a single one so no playing the million and down $ 83,20 that day
on 18/3 I played 12 tournaments and mt sng's and made $ 829,20 by getting a small cash in a $ 0,55 tourrney for finishing 49th and getting a big cash getting 6th in the Hot $ 7,50 for $ 869,53 ^^

I also decided to move up to NL16 despite not having at least a positive winrate yet because I think not taking januari into account I have been doin pretty well and with my tournament winnings being so good I can now more then ever afford to take a shot at a higher limit.

Session 1
was playing alright. Lost Aks on bb vs but KK which was unfotunate for the rest I didn't get called off when I had a good hand. I played 495 hands this session because I needed to get some groceries and took a coffee break after that and not because I lost $ 22,13 ^^

Session 2
I was playing a bit worse as I made a few call on turns and rivers that should obviously should have been fold. For the rest I think I played alright, but just missed a lot of boards and good hands turning into bad ones through on awful turn or river card. I played 1112 this session and lost $ 21,51

Evaluation
Played alright, but definatly lost focus which made me lose more then was necasary
