Hopefully......

Maybe, just maybe things are finally turning around. I just woke up and am getting ready to go to class....Yesterday I played zero hands of NL10 for the first time in several days. The night before I did play several hundred hands and after a while managed to get back into the positive numbers for the month. As the session started, I dropped after the usual beats/coolers but then I flopped a couple nuts straights that actually help up to flopped sets and such. It was quite an unusual feeling as I was always expecting to be outdrawn. So if I turned it around at the end of the session, why didn't I play yesterday you ask? Well I actually felt like playing a tourney instead. I decided I would try the 22:45 Full Tilt 26$ Token Frenzy tournament. I built up a big stack quickly and basically sat out till the tokens were dished out to the top 44 players. I instantly exchanged my token for the 1:00 24+2 $17,000 Guarantee tournament. I moved up tripling my stack in the first 50 min before losing half of it with AK vs 1010. Then the last hand of the hour (after I had raised 3 outta 4 hands, people were commenting I was on tilt on the chat bar) I moved in with AJ and was called by A6 and 24 (lol). I pushed my stack up to 8600 and it leveled off at about 10K a little after the break. My stack never got much bigger to my dismay. I did make the money finishing 46th and cashing for just a little over 50 dollars. Well pocket change to you guys but 5 buy ins for me. Makes me happy.
Well hopefully I will play plenty of NL10 today in between and after school. No work so I should have a decent amount of free time. I will try to update you guys late tonight.....For now......Back To The Grind...

oh yea, the grind and how I hate it. Wish I could just play NL all day long and not worry about anything else. The reality is that the job and family just plain interfere with my poker playing. I have decided to educate the wife on the game so she can be part of the action and learn to love this thiing we all live for.10/16/07

Few things to comment about. Never ever worry about whart's going on short term. If you have a good head and sound fundamentals, you'll learn to master the game. This can only be accomplished through playing and playing and when thats done, more playing. Knowing what your weakness' are is very important. Use fundamentals and the odds will always be in your favor,harlem
