Now this amounts to just shy of £200 meaning I've notched up a tidy £160 profit from yesterday afternoon - but interestingly it puts my update chart onto this:
MONTH--------LIVE POKER---------ONLINE POKER------TOTAL(MTH)---RUNNING TOTAL
January---------- + £960 ---------------- - £520 ----------- + £440 --------- + £440
February--------- + £740 ---------------- + £60 ----------- + £800 --------- + £1240
March------------ - £230 ----------------- + £810 ----------- + £580 ---------- + £1820
April--------------- + £70 ------------------ - £700 ----------- - £630 ---------- + £1190
May-------------- + £370 ----------------- - £90 ------------ + £280 --------- + £1470
June------------- + £340 ------------------ + £440 ---------- + £780 ---------- + £2250
July---------------- -£415 -------------------- +£160 ------------- -£255 ------------ + £2000
---------------
With the online balance for July adjusted accordingly, my astute readers will now notice that the final figure reads a much more round and friendly £2K - which beats the more higgledy-pickledy figure of £1860 from yesterday. (It also wipes away a few demons and clears the painful £150 loss I endured in my last live session.) The thing is, this presents me with a bit of a dilemma: do I go the amateur way of thinking and cashout the $330, safe in the knowledge that I can take a £2K profit into August? Or should I just throw caution to the wind and carry on playing a bit of online poker as normal?
The thing is, I AM an amateur player - not a pro, so banking the money and enjoying the rest of the month on a nice round number does appeal to me. But isn't it a bit anal? One other thing to consider is the "Progress To Bonus" percentage that you see at the bottom of my vital statistics. This bonus is for $93.65, expires at the beginning of September, and can easily be cleared with leisurely play at $0.5/$1 or above. This little carrot has to be brought into the equation as well.
Oh well, something to mull over.
