June Report
The month of June went pretty well. Started out winning a $1500 seat in the WSOP prelim tourney which I'll use for event 17 ($1000 NL hold'em) and use $500 to pay for the plane ride.
Profit: $940.76
Bonus: $203.11
---------------
Total: $1,143.87
Slightly better than May although bonuses that month were half my take.
BBQs and fireworks activities gave me the day off Saturday but today I started the month off on the right foot. I won about $130 on the NL $50 tables and played a 50 man $10 tournament on paradise where I finished 3rd for $73. I had the chip lead with 5 left until 3 guys went all in and the biggest stack won. I then pushed with pocket sixes and he called with JT and hit the T.
I've been trying to finish up NL Theory and Practice so I can read Harrington's book before I go to Vegas. I'mm about 3/4 done with the NL book. There's some good stuff about going all in and calling all ins. Much like Harrington's "M" and "Q", there are charts with the hands you can call with or push based on your stack size.
My Titan challenge is now up to about $200. Didn't play there tonight but I'll check tomorrow and hopefully move up to $100 NL if the tables are good.
I was hoping to go possibly go down to Atlantic City Wednesday to get some live practice in before going to Vegas this weekend. Unfortunately the state of New Jersey is having budget issues and they've shut down the state government. They are planning to close beaches, parks and even the CASINOS! Hopefully they will have it resolved in the next couple of days.
That's it for now. May the flop be with you!

Are you gonna give an update as the WSOP event takes place or wait until you get home? GL.

Goodluck
