September and October

September went pretty well heads up wise started off playing $23 turbos and I realised the competition is pretty much the same as 11$ up to when stacks are around 12bbs deep, the guys at this level tend to make huge compounded errors like they would at 11$ like for example many 11$ guys would raise/fold 3x at like 10 bbs while at 23$ they would raise call even with a really weak hand since they have the pot odds to do so. the swings at 23$ were pissing me off too much so decided to go back to the 10 euros after about 150 games.


MTT wise things didn't go so well ended up losing around $150 or so which was actually caused by me playing bad and lead me to come to a huge realisation that at the middle stages of the game you should really try to maintain a big chip stack rather than playing just to survive and squeeze into the money.


This month started of pretty well but i ended up going on monkey tilt and started playing some $57.50 heads ups and ended up losing around 500 dollars, now i've recuperated most of it and am now  about $200 in profit for the month, pretty poor I know but thats how it goes sometimes. after analysing my stats and my situation, I've decided that gonna stick to grinding the 10 euro games where I have a much higher roi than at 23$ where I've had a 5% roi since june. so according to sharkscope I make $2.58 per game at 10 euros and $1.10 at the 23$. So even a retarded monkey can work out that from a pure profit perspective its better for me to play the 10 euros. Its probably the case that im really im good at killing fish and not so good ad killing decent players, whatever it is i dont do it for  the bragging rights I do it for the cheques, so from now on to the end of the year im just gonna focus on grinding the 10 euros and maximising my profit by increasing volume, I can comfortably 2 table them already but i want to eventually be able to 3 table then 4 table them and get in around 1200 games a month or so. for now im jsut gonna work on 2 tabling and trying to get in 600 games a month.
