Poker: Bankroll strategy - part 5

In my last post (see http://sceaga.blogspot.com/2006/07/poker-bankroll-strategy-up_115212553760217054.html) I had had a bad run in the $30+3 games, partly down to bad luck I must say :-)

This time I have been playing $20 (+2) 6 seater tournaments with the following results

Game 1 : 50 mins : 1st (+$50)
Game 2 : 30 mins : 4th (-$22)
Game 3 : 15 mins : 6th (-$22)
Game 4 : 40 mins : 2nd (+$26)
Game 5 : 40 mins : 3rd (-$22)
Game 6 : 30 mins : 5th (-$22)

Played 6 games of 6 seater $20+2 STT
Time spent 3 hours 25 mins
Won cash in 2 games
Lost 4 games
Layed out $132
Winnings $120
Loss of $12 (loss of $3.51 per hour)

OK, so I achieved "average" results and therefore just lost the house fee, so not too bad a result I guess. There was only 1 game where I had "technical problems" with NTL, one game where I was blitzed by a lucky idiot and another where when down to 3 players the chips leader literally went all-in most hands and got lucky against me when I got a good hand.

All in all, I can't complain and had a lot of fun for my money :-)

Will probably play cash games to raise the $8 I need to get another $22 round in, then report back for the last time about progress..... and will try to summarise the lessons learnt and how effective the strategy has been in my next report
