Still grinding...

This has been a long hard month of online poker so far. i have a few days to get back into the black. I am not far into the red but have played so many hours that it hurts not to show a profit.

Cash games have been just about profitable but I would earn more per hour in McDonalds if my hourly rate stays the same. I am still positive that most of it is down to variance, ther have been a lot of big hands where I have been savagely outdrawn or cold decked. When I have had a complete lock on a hand I have not been able to get paid very often. I have only had one big losing session but have had loads of small ones. The few big winning sessions have just about made up for it.

I have played less than 10 Multi's and only have one cash to my name, this is a small sample and again the variance is not in my favour at the moment. Last night I busted with AA vs AQ adn was crippled in another with KK vs 99, both times the one card added to four on the board for a straight for my opponent. In fact last night was particulary cruel as in cash I was victim of a set over set twice :(

Well not to worry, next month is another month....
