First 10,000 Hands Of Heads Up


Played my 10,000th hand of heads up poker today. Not bad in 23 days really, though I think now that I'm playing 2 tables I should be able to play 20k next month with little issue. The hands add up so much faster that way.

I really feel like I'm building a solid base for this game. The results have been solid and I'm getting better at reading hands and situations and opponents with every day that goes by.

Unfortunately I lost a couple buyins in my first foray in to the $100 games. It's no big deal, I'm down 3.5 buyins in 1k hands. I easily could have been breakeven if a couple key hands had held up in pots for full stacks, but what can you do.

For now I'm going to leave the shot-taking at $100 for a while until I have a more secure bankroll. I was playing it with 35 buyins, but tanking 5 buyins stings a bit when doing that, so I'll wait for now.

So, lets continue owning $50 for the rest of the month. I'm hoping to make it to 15k-17.5k hands by the end of the week, but we'll see how things go.
