MMAsherdog's 2019: Challenges and Triumphs of a High-Stakes Poker Pro

MMAsherdog, a high-stakes poker player, had a challenging year in 2019. In 2018, MMAsherdog won $1.3 million and shared his achievements in a blog on 2+2. In 2019, he planned to play 40,000 hands each month, unless he was traveling. However, in January 2019, MMAsherdog struggled to find action and considered traveling to Macau.

MMAsherdog mentioned that he spends a lot of time on Bluffthespot, his educational site. In February 2019, MMAsherdog had his worst month in a long time, spending much time waiting for action. For March 2019, MMAsherdog set a challenge to play 30,000 hands or sleep on the street. He completed 30,000 hands in March 2019 but did not win much.

MMAsherdog mentioned that HUDs can be useful but require a lot of hands to be statistically significant. In April 2019, MMAsherdog finished the month in the plus despite fluctuating results.
