A good weekend!

Its been a good weekend for the challenge and I now have a tidy bank roll behind me. I have been mixing it up between €2 Omaha Hi/Lo and NL Holdem 5 and 10 seaters and played one €1 multi table. The standard of play at these stakes is very poor and especially at the weekend when I guess people are drinking. So Im just playing tight ABC poker and its working.

I have still had my fair share of sick bad beats which is very annoying, including 3 runner runner bad beats. I had a run of 4 bubbles in a row with some really bad luck and in the past I would have gone in to tilt mode and played higher stake games but because Im now writing all my results and this blog I seem to be a lot more disciplined with my play which Im very happy with.

I find you get a lot more bad beats in NL holdem so playing the Omaha has been good. Although I made one massive rookie error with 2 pair on the flop and what i though was the nut lo but turned out not to be. The one multi tournament I played I finished 5th out of 226 entrants which was sweet, and collected €14.69 for that. I played very tight all the way through which seemed to work although I got short stacked on the final table with ever increasing blinds and a string of rubbish cards.

The plan is to continue at these stakes for the moment and Im now almost playing within 5% of my bank roll. The next target is €66 and I can step up to the €3 games. Im going to continue with the strategy of playing tight and continue to grind out profit hopefully. I realise this is not the funnist blog in the world so i apologise! I will try and make it more funny next time with some hand history stuff as well. But Im feeling very hungover to write anything more, so Im going to leave it there for tonight.

Current balance: €41.16
