My June is over...

I'm gonna be at the lake the rest of the month, but this was already my best month ever, especially since I started the month with just $300 online after not playing my best and really experiencing my first really long downswing.
I played through it and it sucked so bad going from playing $5/10 last year to seriously griding .5/1 this year. I clearly cashed out way too much but I guess thats a good problem to have, since back then I basically had to cash out to guarentee myself it all wouldn't be gone the next morning since I was prone to going up and playing 25/50 or even higher like a degen.

I just looked it up and I sent mayhem a PM 23 days ago, June 1st, saying I was grinding .5/1 with $300 and was sick of it and wanted a loan.
At the beginning of the month I got like a 6k loan and started playing $1/2 but poorly and playing like 12 tables at a time which did not go too well. Finally one day, around hand 40k, I started playing just 1 or 2 tables at a time and I realized holy crap I can get some sick reads on people, and I started taking notes on everything and just making really good decisions. For once I was playing the player so much more than just standard I have TPTK+FD, shove all in. I realized that after I found a winning strategy I was just in a rut and pre-programmed to play every hand the same way. I started chaning up my play and trying new moves and it worked great. I decided to play almost all heads up the rest of the month and no more than 4 tables at a time and therefore could table select really well. Like the 93 hands of 10/20 vs the biggest fish in the universe.
