July update

I've finally updated my roll stats which make very sorry reading.
Down $400 over the past two months and feel I'm going nowhere fast.
The following hand is a good example of what is happening to me, just can't win any key hands or build any sort of stack in tourneys.

Basically lost to a three-outer this time.
This blog is turning into a moan-fest but unfortunately I don't have that much positive to write about.

I took the first part of my Investment Management Certificate this afteroon and I think I passed. 51 questions, 65% to 70% pass mark allows me 15 questions wrong. It was close but I think I made it.
Part 2 is much much more work, but I'm going to have a break from study for a while.

My work is really good at the mo, although the markets are doing terribly.

Hopefully next time I post it will more positive on the poker front.
