I need to be up early tomorrow (for the third straight day - having the house painted), so no poker for me tonight.

Here are my numbers/graph for June.

Please note that other than donking around with you guys after our TP tourney that one night, every hand I played this month was at 1/2 NL. In hindsight, the decision I made was the best decision I could have made. I cashed out most of my online roll and moved down in limits. I had never even seriously played 1/2 NL before (a few hands here and there) - when I made the transition from limit, I moved straight to 2/4. All I can say, is my God, what a goldmine. Not only are there so many bad players to surround yourself with (there are always multiple good table to choose from), but since the stakes are so much lower than I was used to, getting sucked out on and losing a buy in or two or three was no big deal for me. I still don't think I'm much of a tilt monkey, but I will admit that I've been able to stay much more level headed, calm and collected at these levels.

In theory, if I ran exactly the same at higher limits, I could probably make more money - even factoring in better opponents. But for now, I'm happy right where I'm at. It's much less risky/stressful, and that's what my poker career needs right now. I'm not saying I'll never move back up, because I probably will... but for now, I'm happy being a 1/2 baller. I should have followed shabi's lead long ago.

OK, enough rambling. More graphing.

This is nothing compared to the big time guys here, but I'm still happy with these results. I ran especially well towards the beginning of the month, and pretty badly toward the end. Overall, I'd say I ran slightly above average for the month, which is about 10 times better than I was running earlier this year.

(And yes, I know this graph sucks, but my Poker Grapher is broken right now and I don't feel like messing with it)

So, that's over $225k you are up since you were online broke 2 months ago.

What's the plan, JD? Are you going to cash out some or a lot or what? Are you going to buy yourself anything, ot maybe pay off your parents house for them? Pay off college in advance?

Are we going to have a sweet money added forum tourney?

Are you going to keep playing the same limits, or cash out a bunch and move down, or cash out nothing and move up?

Do you have any desire to be one of the 200/400 NL guys someday?

Enquiring minds want to know.

I really want Mike Matusow's ass to see that graph.

Don't get me wrong - JD is THE man. But dominating HU cash tables and winning WSOP bracelets are two very different things. There's no (well, very little) glory in dominating cash games, but poker players all know that's where the money is it. Tourneys are a way to pass the time, occasionally go for the huge score and get famous. Grinding out 75k cash hands a month online though = $$$$$.
