2009 in review
A rather mental close to 2009 at the Loose Cannon Christmas special. A free bar and dinner (subsidised by the rake) that my compatriots took full advantage of led to a rather nice upswing at year end, hiking my bankroll by another £1,200.
Not too much I’d care to report online, however a comedy moment mid-evening when Jimbo’s 5-bet with 42s all-in pre-flop ran into Smalls’ Aces, and somehow managed to stand-up. Captured the comedy on video here:
And so with that little boost, the year closes showing a rather nice £8,265 profit. A pretty consistent upward trend, although mostly as a result of running good through September and November.
Looking at 2009 together with previous year’s performance, the pattern’s pretty clear. It seems I’ve managed to be a benefactor of our the home games through 2004/5/6/7. 2008 was the year my main game shifted to the Loose Cannon, and at the hands of the Baron I suffered a series of punishing (partially self-inflicted) losses. However by start of this year, despite almost hitting rock bottom (my lowest point was one of net profit reduced to £290 on 12th Dec 2008), I finally sorted my game versus this new and far more challenging crew and once more started to prevail.
Am looking forward to keeping up the momentum into the next decade.
