Hey loyal readers (whoever you may be),
Sorry to have disappeared for so long. It's been an interesting run. I took some shots @ 50NLHU (which obviously went super terrible). I had one night where I stayed up really late two-tabling this guy heads up for like 3 hrs. It was an epic session and a ton of fun, but I lost like $250, which was 1/2 my roll at the time. Obviously, it was all downhill from there. I then went on to deposit like another $200, and lose most of that playing 2.20/180s (which apparently I'm not very good at; I shipped like three the first two sessions I played them - so obviously I'm amazing :) - and then failed to FT anymore from then on). I play a little 2NL/5NL (which was super boring), and ended up sitting on like $30. I started looking on 2+2 for a stake to try and get back into the 25NL games.
Then this happened:
PokerStars Tournament #307559688, No Limit Hold'em
Buy-In: $4.00/$0.40 USD (NOTE: 4-max tourney - the players at the final table were GOD AWFUL; it still blows my mind they made it this far)
1000 players
Total Prize Pool: $4000.00 USD
Tournament started 2010/09/06 16:20:00 ET

BOOM! Back in this bitch. I'm going to play enough to cash out the $200 I deposited (after cycling $500 to get the $100 WCOOP bonus), and I'll be sitting on a $500ish roll (plus the $100 bonus and a $50 bonus I'm about to get), and I'll be jumping back into 25NL. I disabled 50NL with the responsible gaming tab, so I'm actually not allow to sit down at a 50NL table until I turn it off (and it takes 24 hrs to reset), so that should protect me from myself. I'm going to play 25NL until I'm up to $1500, then I'll unlock 50NL for myself. I would like to get into HU more seriously, so I've been playing some HUSNGs, which I've been doing pretty well in (trying to make less spewy bluffs + thinner valuebets). I'll probably play a few more tournaments as well. After the withdrawal is properly made, I'll be posting my current bankroll and an update on how I'm doing. Feels good to be back in this. I'll also probably be looking into some cash game coaching, but we'll see.
Ciao!
