August '13 Review

For a long time August seemed to be a good month for me in terms of poker.
In most parts i played the Euro- and Pound-Tables at Pokerstars and mixed SH and FR tables together  since i was a bit bored grinding FR tables only.
After 66k  Hands i was ~ 1,1k$ up and everything was good so far....
But then somehow i hit the "Doomswitch-Button" and i couldnt win anything for the last 40k Hands of the month :(
The good news, the tables are still really fishy and full of maniacs/gambler so its on me to get a seat with them and hope the variance and i will be friends again ;-)

Numbers:

• 106,789 Hands (NL25 $/€/£  FR/SH)
• 8,556 VPP

+ 235.75$ @ the tables  
+ 479,14$ VPP value
+ 150$ WCOOP Reload-Bonus
+ 85$ Stellars 

---------------------------------------------------------------------

= + 949,89$
