I am still pretty much on schedule for becoming supernova elite. Had a slow start in January, but now I am over the 250k mark:

Because of holidays, tournaments, university, December etc. etc. I need to try to be a little bit ahead of schedule, instead of being just on schedule, but so far so good.

On pokerstars I am sitting at the $109 final table:

Came in 5th, what a waste....

Made 2 pair vs a set in blind vs blind that cost me a lot of my stack. And the next orbit I lost with 99 vs A4 for 15-20bb in blind vs blind. Such a waste...

The next couple of days/weken I will not be playing any poker, or very little.

Got exams for university on April 4th and 7th, so I need to study. I'm well on schedule for becoming supernova elite. Now it is time to study :)

The last couple of days I completely reinvented my PLO game.
Always when I run like sh*t I start to rethink every move I make, and why I make it. Sometimes it is just running bad and there is really nothing you can do about it, but a lot of the times I do find some leaks or mostly; I am playing a new limit, with new players and I am not adjusting enough.

This is definitely what happened this month. PLO400 is pretty easy to beat, but if I wanna keep a winrate of 5bb/100 at higher stakes I do need to adjust some things on PLO1k and PLO2k. I found out that players (after you have played like 10k hands with them) just won't pay off easy enough. Straightforward plays won't get rewarded and there are a lot of spots where I do need to play more tricky, slowplay and take some strange lines.

Yes, I did run like sh*t:

And if I did not run 13k above EV at PLO2k in only 340 hands, my results would have been more terrible. The other results are quite funny :P, especially PLO1k with $200 loss over 46k hands ><. But it just happens, so be it.

Since I only really seriously started playing PLO in February I am still adjusting my game and I am still learning. The last week I have been playing a new style which seems to be just way better. I went from playing 26/20 (vpip, PFR) to 31/22. Although it is not a huge sample or a huge change (does not seem to be with only 5% extra hands), I am playing other and more hands.
But mostly, I am playing more controlled and better postflop which is a huge plus.

I lost around 8k in tournaments and sit&go's and in total for the month I am down $2,800. I did make 106k VPP which gives me in rakeback almost $6k and every 100k VPP is another milestone of $2k+, so I did still make money this month

Hopefully next month will be better :)
