Down down down she goes - I tried to not update until my down swing stopped. I dont like to sound like Im bitching about plays because I fully understand that 9/10 of the time I am going to get paid off, but it always seems like I make a tiny bit 9/10 of the time, then the 1/10 ...

Going over the CL hands from Friday night... - I wrote last Friday about how I took a beating on CL similar to one I took exactly 8 days previous which stopped me from playing poker in the interim. I went over the hands, from Friday, at least, which I considered to be a relatively good session despite...

Walking away a winner. - I played for 60 minutes this morning. I woke up at 3am after a very wierd nightmare. No way I was getting back to sleep. I fired up the computer and fired off an email about my nightmare. Then I read other emails, looked at the NCAA brackets, etc for an h...
4hrs,833hands,1.49BB/100 - 4hrs833hands1.49BB/100 I guess its pretty decent, if I was playing at a higher limit. But, its basically break-even day for me, financially. Ive been averaging 4BB/100 over the last 30 hours playing $.25/$.50, so 1.5BB/100 is a real letdown. As I said,...
Walking away, a loser. - Yes, I just had a losing session, and I walked away exactly at 90 mins. It sucks losing, but I guess I gotta just walk away and show some discipline. I dont appreciate it yet, but its an ability that is manditory in poker. I am at a loss for what went w...

Session 1. Off we go! - I woke up at 5am this morning. I didnt play any poker on Sunday, so I was sorta chomping at the bit this morning. I got right in and started playing $.25/$.50 limit on PR. I havent played at this time of the day in years. I remember when I first sta...
One month anniversary of PT purchase. - I was looking over my entire stats collected thus far in PT. I started using PT exactly one month ago. So far, I have logged 85.5 hours of play, accumulating 9,309 hands. I am a losing player on CL and UB, but a winning player at PR and PP. I am a big...

EOW: 3/6/05-3/12/05 - Not too much to report. I did 3 hours last night on CL and 3 hours today on PR. I seem to have steady success at PR, playing the lowest microlimit tables. I am barely making progress clearing a small bonus I started there, but my success at the tables ...

Hammered again. - Yep. It was basically a rerun of a week ago Thursday. It was purely the cards this time. I played 218 hands, and got exactly ONE pocket pair! It was a pair of 4s! I folded it UTG preflop. I tanked 19 BB over the course of 3 hours. What a nightmare....
EOW: 2/27/05-3/05/05 - Well, I went over my bad session over a week ago just now. I think I saw enough to realize I need to slow down a little bit. I got into a variety of bad situations, which I am not sure about now. It didnt help that the cards ran pretty cold, but theres...

Week of dispair. - Well, Ive been off poker for almost exactly a week now. Last Thursday night, I put in a couple hours at CL, going down 30 BB right out of the gate with some bad beats, and marginal plays. I fought back and got back to even, hearing the immortal siren so...

Something is afoot - Anyways after last nights session March so far is a winning month. I have gone back to multi tabling 3-4 max. This scares me because you can lose so much so fast, but last night playing 3-4 1/2 tables I made 600$. Not a whole lot, but I was very pleased w...
Stats through now - My last stats were:Jaunary - +430$Febuary so far through the 11th- + 1100$End of Febuary - 1700$ (I hit this # multiple time through the month only to fall back down to 1100$ at times)we'll see if March is as productive

Piddled at $.01/$.02 at UB for half hour. - I couldnt get on this morning to play due to technical difficulties. Then I sorta got into a wierd tired funk towards mid-morning and afternoon. I dont know if Im coming down with some sickness or what. I took a half hour nap at noon, but I really feel...

Checked it down for the night. - I stuck an hour into the tables at CL, but had a headache, and the tables werent really gravy anyway. Its hump day, so Im taking it a little easy. No need to burn myself out for no good reason. Let my brain heal a little and Ill just be that much stronger...
Afternoon session at Paradise Poker. (PP) - I logged almost 2 hours at PP, for a change of pace. As I mentioned this morning, PR was getting under my skin with the way it handles multiple tables, so I thought Id test the waters somewhere else. I hadnt tried PP in over almost 2 weeks, so I gave it...

Morning session. Tilt-Tilt-Tilt - It didnt take much to set me off this morning. I woke up around 7:30 am, and took a shower, made coffee, put away dishes from last night, fired up the computer, etc. I settle down to 4 nice tables at PR $.25/$.50 and begin my day of poker. I cruise alo...
