......... post that is verses a winning session! LOL
Things continued to go fairly well (online at least) after my last post. Nothing quite as spectacular as the Sunday I had but I have continued to grow my online br slowly and steadily. Few steps forward, one back... few steps forward. You know the routine in poker when you go for the steady slow climb.
Even though I have a decent amount online ( at least for a micro stakes player like me ) I have continued to stick to the $5 and under MTTs and SNGs. I dable in the few larger buy ins.... $8 & $10 SNGs.... but haven't moved up any yet.
I did play a $3 rebuy on UB. Bubbled. Got my money in good with AA when I limp raised the bb raiser. He of course shoved pf and proudly displayed his JJ.... especially when the J hit the flop. We were both in the top 15 of remaining players at the time. He only had me covered by about 10% of his stack. But was rewarded handsomely for his great timing play.
Have made a few other fts in the smaller buyins I play but most of the finishes have just been into the table and not top 3. I did manage to pull off a 2nd place finish but should have been first as I had my opponent dominated in chips when we got heads up, 160k to 30k. He got two quickly lucky double ups within the first 7 hands headsup and I was toast after that.
Live play has decreased in frequency and when I am playing I am playing horribly I guess. I have lost 70% of the profit I had up to this point in live play for the year. That was all within the last 5 different days of live play I have done. Wow..... messes with your head when you run bad (play bad). I am kinda numb to it surprisingly. Just hope this turns around soon.
Well I wanted to get in a post before June ended....... nothing like procrastinating till the last day!
