Might get this active again


So been talking seriously about getting back to the pokers. I have a lot on my plate right now though for sure. About to hit this deployment, so never know how that's going to affect time I'm able to devote to things, plus now we're banned from electronic devices, so I can't even bring articles and posts to read during downtime.

Also, going to be working on my FX trading while I'm out, but at least I already have my entire trading plan constructed, it's merely implementation at this point.

If I am going to go back to live games, I'm gonna have to make sure I'm putting in some quality time with play and reading again. Really, I ought to focus on getting back to the $5/$10 tables, but I think what'll really happen is I'll start with $2/$5 to get into the swing of things. Only problem of course is that game plays a completely different dynamic than $1knl.

I've been beating the everloving hell out of $25nl since my last post. I have a higher BB/100 than what is shown on $10nl in that last one (Woah....not accurate, didn't realize how early on that was. $10nl ended at about 7ptbb/100 and currently around 12ptbb/100 at $25nl). I was up to just over $800, and closing fast on being rolled for $50nl but I had a couple horrendous sessions, including somehow dropping $50 on $4PLO, lol. But yeah actually had 2, now 3, losing sessions of $25nl and it was just dumb stupid crap happening. So still playing well, still making good decisions, cards just not falling my way. That's fine, it's gonna happen eventually, but it was nice to ride a high of just sailing along.

I'm going to have to determine some good plans here for play/study along with time that will be allocated to investment properties and FX trades. I really need to figure out how to create automatically executing entries that will not only open but close upon hitting my desired parameters. It shouldn't be so hard but MB Trading's software sucks so hard, god I hate it, and MetaTrader4 apparently straight up does not have the option to do what I want. I can't always be there to monitor the market, and if I'm outside the wire for an extended period I don't want to be coming back to a bad position that busted because I wasn't there to close it. Gah, damn these first world problems!!!
