Inspired by Ian's Poker Plan I had look at my stats and finances last night. And I realised that my record keeping was pretty damn poor. I knew from Pokertracker that I was running at loss in terms of playing poker but I had no idea whether bonuses and rakeback were keeping me in profit or not. I also had no idea of how much cash I had in the various poker sites that I play on or how much I had deposited initially into these sites.

So I trawled through my bank and credit card statements and recorded all the poker transactions,logged into every site to get a note of my balance and crunched the numbers.

And the result:- I've deposited around £735 and I am currently £350 in profit. So that's around a 50% return on investment in 6 months.

But if it weren't for the bonuses and rakeback I'd be in the red so I need to improve my card playing. And stop taking shots at levels I'm not ready for. I would have had a winning January had I not lost $118 in 145 hands at $1/$2 6 Max!

Anyway, the start of a new month means a new round of Crypto bonuses. I played a few hours on WillHill last night turning in a profit of $7 in 179 hands at $1/$2 and earning £10 in bonus money.
