A good start

Well Ive played 400+ hands at .25/.50 and its gone pretty smoothly. Im up about 25 BBs and all my stats from .10/.20 are pretty much matching up. IF I continue playing this much and do this averagely well I should be able to move up again in about 3 weeks?.. but Im not holding my breath at all.

Found a program today put out by the PPA.. not even sure if its approved by poker sites but it calculates all your odds and for you LIVE.. I tried it out on the play money tables but you cant use it live until you pay $25 for a PPA membership.. I probably wont do it buy I like the idea of seeing all the real odds in real time.. Im just not sure if it would make me a better player or a more lazy one.. So in the mean time Im not paying for it.

I think I might grind out an hour or two and get to bed.

FINALLY

Had a great day at the tables online.. went from 91 and change to $100.11 at .1/.2 which means... I can now play .25/.50 with 10 buy ins. That took a long time but im glad I didnt cheat it. Heres the hand that pushed me over.

Pete and Repeat are in a boat..

So read my post from January 2nd and thats where Im at again.. Ive stayed away from serious limit online and been screwing around with sngs and stuff and I went down a few buy ins... after a few good sessions and one great one today Im back where I started then.. approaching the $100 and .25/.50 mark.

Also all the plans I had for my time off work are out the window.. I'm starting work tomorrow (on less then 24 hours notice) and thats that. I got to the casino 3 times this off time which blows.. I didnt play much online either. Its ok though. Feeling good about it and theres really no pressure to move forward anyway... as long as I dont go backwards.

Ok food is on the way
