April in the books.....

So what you see above is my graph for the month of April. This month was a personal best for me in both games and profit, so all in all I was fairly happy. Let me go more in detail now.....

I made my way out to LA on April the 10th, and started grinding that Sunday on the 11th(as stated in previous blog). And while that first day was very nice from both the profit and the volume, I have had some rough patches since I've been here. Just over a week ago, or right around there, I had a hundred game stretch where I lost around 1k.....NOT GOOD!!

The thing is, most people would be completely devastated, and want to give up....not I, said me! In the world of online poker you must never give up, keep playing well, and making all the right moves as often as you can. As you can see, there has pretty much been a steady incline since then as I finished out the month strong.

Poker is a game of swings, both good and bad. It's how you deal with the bad that makes you a better player....

  1. Hello,

    I posted the same question to johnnyHildo and wanted to hear your comment/point of view if possible.........


    I grind the 45s & 18s @ pokerstars but wanted to switch and add the 180s in my game. My concern is if rainmanpoker's training gets very successfull and it seems like he is an excellent coach and poker player,

    Will the 180s be a lot tougher to beat because a lot of his students will know how ?

    Is it worth switching to the 180s ?

    Realistically, what percentage of the students that signs up will actually use the information learned and grind the 180s ?

    regards....
