Charting My Earnings Progress


For my own interest, I've charted the progress of my earnings from online poker and casinos since I started playing less than a year ago. Surprisingly, the road has been fairly smooth and steady, with maybe just one or two minor dips along the way. The most significant change occurred around May 2006, shortly after I switched over from playing limit to no-limit holdem cash games. My progress after that point has accelerated significantly. I will update this chart periodically to monitor my progress. It will be interesting to see how the chart will change as I start to add more tournament play to my game over the next year.

Very nice look line, hope it keeps going that direction!

I tried cake poker last night. Play in general was pretty basic. I could tell what each playing player had. Except one hand where I knew the guy was weak, until he hit his 2nd pair.

The race promo they have, I dunno. 3 tabling ($200nl, + 2*50nl) for 1.5hrs, I only got 1 gold card, the big 2 of clubs. 2 pts alltogether. I"m not sure if i'll continue this race, doesn't seem worthwhile, though the actual poker play might be.

Thanks!

I'll give Cake a try later. The gold cards supposedly come more frequently at higher limits, so I'll probably try two-tabling NL$200 for a while (if there's enough traffic for that). It doesn't sound like there's a lot of fish, though, from your description. You didn't run into any outright bad players, like on PokerShare?

I couldn't even find a $200nl table yesterday, so I had to settle for a $100nl 4 handed. Ended up growing to 7 handed, but then I knocked out 3 guys on 1 hand when I flopped the nut flush. I wouldn't say theres extremely bad players, a lot of text book players, limit players who are playing NL, and weak post flop players. Continuation bets always seem to work for me.
