A huge month for me as I record my most profitable EVER month, on top of this I hit my yearly $10,000 goal 3 months early!! To be honest though it was a case of running very hot. I played a tournament (I never play tournaments) and won it for $650, so close to biggest ever tourney win and I also ran hot at the cash tables, hotter than I thought possible to be honest. Apart from the last week of the month no sets have been hit against my overpairs and majority of good all ins have held up. The month started with me completing that reload bonus for $600 but then I was really angry with PKR for taking $200 r/b away from me for completing my bonus. Words where exchanged and I very nearly quit the site. There was a little spell this month after my tournament win that I wasted time on hds up games and a few sngs but I found it difficult to get back to grinding after my win. Over 2 years ago I could beat $20 hds up sngs with ease and now it seems Im a break even $5 hds up sng player. Not all great news as I popped on Carbon nearing the end of the month and as before struggled to get 4 tables of $50nl going, sadly I have now left a site I was once very fond of. I still havent decided whether to join a new site or play exclusivly at PKR, as Im supposed to be winding down my poker "career" I may just stay with PKR, it has all I need to be honest although first thing in the morning (where I am often restricted to playing) it contains the nittiest bunch of opponents imaginable. Pokerstars is an option. Another big thing has happened this month, I have spent the bulk of my bankroll on a new car. The scrappage scheme in England proved too tempting for me and Ive scapped my old car and have ordered a new little Picanto. $1600 remains on PKR and that should be enough for me to still feel safe.

November consisted of 5 weeks.

Week 1. +$820 Big reload bonus is completed.
Week 2. +$710 I win $650 in $8 speed mtt.
Week 3. +$480 Run hot at $50nl.
Week 4. +$630 Run VERY hot at $50nl, $270 won in one hour!
Week 5. -$130 Cant complete the perfect month and lose at the cash tables.

November +$2510.
Hourly rate over 5 months now? +$16

Really happy with what I feel now is a true hourly rate, I feel my hot month has now balanced up my first 3 slow months from when I started recording an hourly rate. Goals for December are difficult as I dont know if a new account will be opened, I plan to play a few of mtts but obviously dont expect to win another. Ill be happy if I can maintain that hourly rate and win about $650. Thanks for reading what was a great month for me.
