Ok its been a while since I updated, so here is a summary of the last couple of months poker wise.

Firstly until last week I had not played a great deal, moving house is time consuming and work has also been flat out over this period. The hours that I was putting in during that time were poor - I was being hyper aggressive, making donk calls when I knew I was behind and all that jazz, basically I almost went busto - at one point my BR was back down to $40.

However I have found my poker groove once again and am back playing NL100 - it took roughly 15hours to get my roll from $40 to $1000 using a very aggressive bankroll management strategy. Basically I would play 4 tables at a time, with at least one buyin in reserve for the current limit, so with a roll of $250 I was playing NL50. I played a conservative (ie low variance) style and quickly got things in order poker wise.

I gave up playing on Pacific, even though the players are terrible I just prefer the feel of the games at Cake, also I dislike playing with a HUD and do not wish to be at a disadvantage to the multi table griders on Pacific.

Over the weekend I was actually back to a BR of $2500, however a quick smacking around at NL200 via a series of pretty sick beats and coolers meant I dropped back down to NL100 for a while - its comfortable and I make a good profit 6 tabling.

I bought a new PC this week which cost roughly $1000, I told the misses I would pull the money out of my bankroll within 2 weeks, so I have a mission to run it up past $3k in that time so I can comfortably continue to play NL100/200.

Playing NL10 again was humbling but I feel really good about poker again - getting back to NL100 so fast feels goot.

Current Bankroll: $1800
Cashed Out Profits: $21100

5 days since my last update and I have managed to grind out approx $800, mostly playing NL100.

I think the best approach on cake is to really tighten up preflop, even on the button as there are a lot of LAG style players who are good enough to make life difficult postflop but who don't seem to know when to back off (sound familiar? this was me a couple of months back).

When I play a patient and relaxed game I win - that simple.

I have another 5 days or so to get my bankroll up past $3k so I can comfortably cash out enough to pay for my new PC.

Current Bankroll: $2600
