Damn Ringer's Poker Blog

First let me say, I’m not Dino21Might. The original from FTP is absolutely not me. I did however steal his name on cake, so anyone who plays both sites would think i am horrible, and therefore i could do some sicko plays. I will be changing back to NityByNature in my next name change though, and likely leaving it there for awhile. That out of the way lets blog on…

November is gone. I turned a pretty nice profit in November despite running like complete shit. I still made $5.5k + 1.5k rakeback. Overall, not a terrible month but i put in so much volume i was expecting to take home a little more coin. Its a winning month though, so i’m not complaining. The reason i even managed to make that much was running like god at 400nl that cancelled out general awfulness across the 200nl board. Oh well… now cue the beginning of december.

And December first looks like I finally am running good. I played a monster session last night, which is something I’m definitely going to focus more on. I played over 3k hands in one sitting while 10 tabling. If you’ve been following the blog recently, i haven’t been able to break off a winning day like this one in months, and i had a few of them back in april and may. It was a much needed boost. When the smoked had cleared, I made 12.5 buyins in that time. I was getting handed money left and right, as well as running good. Honestly however, playing 3k hands gave me a pretty big headache, so if you guys have any tips for playing marathon sessions and still thinking 100% let me know. I know townsend and those guys use to pull like 48 hour sessions. How that is even possible, blows my mind. Here’s the graph from last night…

Now i will put my goals for December

[ ] Run Over 3ptbb/100 over the whole month at 200nl
[ ] Play 60,000 hands
[ ] Bring my Cake Roll up close to $15,000
[ ] Get one new student to coach, hopefully a long term student from lower stakes
[ ] Iron Iron Man
[ ] Drink less alcohol, likely by taking certain fridays and saturdays off to work
