Here's the graph of the day:
I played near flawlessly, only getting felted for 100bbs twice over the 2,400 hands I played. One of the times I got stacked I just lost a simple coin-flip with QQ vs AK. The other stack I lost was my AA vs JJ all-in pre-flop. Definitely nothing I can do about those two hands.
I finally got around to merging my holdem manager databases on my laptop and desktop computer so I could do my accounting paperwork and figure out exactly how I ended up over the past three months. There weren't any surprises; July and August were losing months. I also figured out how much I'm up year-to-date. I'm still on a decent pace to make good money for the year... albeit slightly behind pace to make what I made last year.
After reviewing my month-to-month results for 2009, I think I need to be more of a "steady eddy." What I mean by that is I need to do everything I can to become more consistent as far as earnings go per month. I have some massive winning months and a few pretty big losing months as well. I can completely eliminate the big losing months by cutting out high-stakes shot taking, which I think I will in fact cut out for the rest of 2009. I won't be playing $25/50 NL no matter how big of a fish is playing. The swings are just too ridiculous compared to my yearly income.
I also need to cut out playing 5+ tables at once. I CLEARLY play my best 4 tabling. Playing too many tables has absolutely slaughtered my winrate in the past.
Since I'm the biggest bankroll nit ever, I'm going to play $2/4 NL for a few more months until I have 200 buyins for that limit. Then, I will move back to $5/10 NL with about an 80 buyin roll. I'd definitely like to be playing a decent amount of $10/20 NL by the end of the year, but we'll see how it goes. There's a TON of money to be made at $5/10 NL, so staying there for a bit would probably be fine.
That's the plan. Now I just have to execute it.
