Short week again this week due to the extended Easter Break and of course the Royal Wedding but I still managed to get some volume in. As always I left the Iron Man challenge to the last minute requiring me to hit the last 3 days consecutive to earn my badge, not a problem and was easily achievable. In addition to this and the take 2 bonus Full Tilt Poker in its quest to keep the UK players has offered an add on bonus of $300 - a bonus which needs to be cleared in the next 21 days. To successfully clear this I will need to earn 7,500 FTP points which is a lot more than I would usually hit (only 4,500 April alone). However, it will be possible for me to clear a good chunk of this bonus if I grind it out every day. So how has this week been? Well, I really wanted to come here this week and tell you that I have moved up to the next level ($25NL) being as I was so close but unfortunately a sick end to the month saw me drop 8 buyins in one day taking me further from that goal. Nonetheless April overall wasn't too bad (end of month blog to come soon) but this week was pretty disappointing.
So, the tale of the tape:
Hands: 5,925
Hours: 13.12
BB/100: -5.50
$/hour: -$4.97
Total winnings: -$65.21
Total rakeback: $12.26
Total bonus: $20
Total for the week: -$32.95
As I say, a poor week and not how I wanted to finish the month. Played pretty poorly and let my emotions come out at the table on a few occasions. Seems no matter how hard you try sometimes the dreaded tilt just comes to remind you that focus needs to be 100% all the time. Well, new month starts today and I have a hell of a grind ahead of me.
Lifting Weights
Surprised I can even write this blog this week the hammering my arms took on P90x! Been 2 days since I did the back and biceps work out and I still can't move my arms fully! Haven't had 100% commitment to P90x again this week which is disappointing but and happy that I have done enough to move on to the next week.
Check back later for Pokerlifter's April...
