Roller Coaster Ride
I was going to write Wednesday about how I sucked it up and decided I just needed to take a break for a day or two.
After my great start at 3/6 6max, I started my second try and was quickly up. Then I lost my mojo and preceded to lose $240 at this level in about 45 minutes. A couple of big hands were definitely tilt. Looking at the stats: I won 40% of the hands where I saw a flop. That's a nice winning percentage. However this also means I won lots of small pots and got hammered in the big ones. Two of them I definitely lost a few extra bets but I'll chalk it up to a learning experience.
That same day I lost $75 at $25NL on PokerFantasy. I now have about 900 points there and I have had a few nice days since which I'll get back to. To make up a little bit of this loss, I played some 2/4 6max on Golden Palace and made $110 back which was nice.
Wednesday I didn't play much and ended up down about $20 overall.
Thursday was BACK IN BUSINESS DAY. I tried the 3/6 6max games again and played 2 tables where I made about $150. I also made $101.62 playing $25NL. To top it off I cleared the $100 bonus at party so that all made up for the Tuesday from hell and then some. I should also have cleared my $150 pokerfantasy bonus but I haven't received it yet.
Friday is BACK IN BUSINESS PART 2. I found a nice $5 tournament on pokerfantasy which had $200 added. Only 20 people were in so it was a nice overlay. Top 3 got paid and I won $150 :) yay. I'm about even on the tables so a nice couple of days.
I'm almost halfway to my goal. I have made about $785 so far this month not including the $150 I should get from pokerfantasy. I'm almost done with my $150 bonus from golden palace as well. After that I have bonuses waiting at Bet365 and Pokerroom. My goal should be within reach. We may be going to Boston next weekend so that may put a dent in my goal but we'll just have to see. Until then, may the flop be with you!
