No Go

Date: Mon, Aug 25, 2008 Internet Live Tournament

Sunday was a no go. I did play in a few tournys but was so out of it and still quite tired that i unregistered from the 750K. I'm now trying eat breakfast everyday and get to bed by 1:00am (which is early for me). I've registed for the 750k this Sunday and will try to give it another go. I will give this a shot regardless outcome. Even if i bust...

Not Feeling Sharp

Date: Sat, Aug 23, 2008 Internet Live Tournament

Well the draft is over, and honestly i didnt do that great, and now i need to get myself into playing shape for my tourny tomorrow. Since my last post i managed to...

Taking A Shot

Date: Thu, Aug 21, 2008 Internet Live Tournament

Earlier in the year i committed to playing at least 2 Sunday Millions by the end of the year. I kinda lost site of that for a while, but after railling Kennl from RTR go deep in FTOPs #24 i realized that i should've at least given it a shot. So i decided to start playing more sats. Tonight i got home from work and got into a few sats; a $24 stt...

Randomness

Date: Mon, Aug 18, 2008 Internet Live Tournament

No big news to report, but i have been playing somewhat regularly and have managed to get deep in several tournies since my 3rd place finish. Unfortunately nothing major, but i'm still really pleased with my progress. I don't post often so i will posts some random stuff here. Cash Vs. MTTs When reading forums or blogs i often see players post...

Soooo Close!

Date: Mon, Aug 11, 2008 Internet Live Tournament

To achieving my goal for this month! Finished 3/857 in the $26 11.5k Guaranteed on Fulltilt today for 2.2k. Besting my biggest score by about 700.00. I was easily the best player remaining but unfortunately got unlucky push botting with 9bb @ 25k/50k level. The guy who was the big stack at the time was horrible, had no idea how to play the big...

Playing Well - - 2 deep finishes

Date: Mon, Aug 4, 2008 Internet Live Tournament

I'm really pleased with how i'm playing and how my game has improved. I'm getting stronger with every tournament.

In both tournaments i was able to accumulate a huge stack and use it to my advantage... My early game and mid game...

August Goals

Date: Fri, Aug 1, 2008 Internet Live Tournament

Well July is squarely behind me... played my last few tournaments tonight and it looked like i was going to do something in the $3rebuy on tilt but it was not meant to be. July was another rough month i finished with a -10% ROI. The end of the month was really rough since i'm in an extended downswing that has seen my bankroll drop from its peak of...

Make Small mistakes

Date: Thu, Jul 17, 2008 Internet Live Tournament

I watched a Rizen vid recently that talks about making small mistakes vs the big mistakes. Poker is a game of mistakes after all and the player making less will win most often. Unfortunately i tend to make the big mistakes late in tournies most often... its something i continue to work on. This is a hand from the Daily double B tourny tonight on...
