July numbers

Wow ... a month since I've posted ... very slack I know.

I guess the main reason I hadn't been blogging is that I hadn't actually been playing that much. Yes, I was still following the WSOP very closely online but July turned out to be more of a social month for me and there wasn't the same time for poker.

As you can see from the table, the main number that jumps out is only 96 games played. Normally even if I'm not playing heaps that number is closer to 200.

The finish % breakdown is very similar to normal but I failed to get the wins and deep finishes to make it a more profitable month. ONE single win for the month just isn't going to get it done, but when you play less than 100 games, its unlikely they'll be too many more victories.

I've been playing a few more rebuy MTT's of late, so while my 181+ game numbers look bad on paper, they're probably not as bad in real life since I don't churn through rebuys like many looser plays do.

Anyway, I've already racked up more games in the start of August than I did in July so I'll be posting more regularly from now on.
