I've decided to start one of these blogs to log my poker playing, and try and keep myself on track..
A little bit of history:
I have played on bodog about the last 6 months, and have come out just about even. I would always build my stack up, gamble at higher limits, and go broke down to 10$ and then start again.
Last weekend I blew my whole stack on the high limit table when I hit a flush with AKs, only to have a set turn into a boat on the river to bust me. So I deposited 20$, quickly blew that to 6$ on SnGs, and decided I might need some discipline.
I grew that 6$ to 16$ last night and decided to enter in the nightly 500$ freeroll, the 3$ NL tourney, and the 12$ 2k$ guaranteed.
I placed about 80th out of 2000 on the freeroll, and 16th out of 90-something in the 3$, as well as 16th out of ~200 on the 2kguaranteed. The only cash was the 2k guaranteed, but it was 25$ so I guess i profited.
I'm going to keep grinding out profits in the .05/.10 blinds, but I definitely have the most fun playing MTT's. Seeing as I went very deep in all 3 tourneys last night, I'd rather put 100$ in and useit to just play MTT's (buyin under 30$) and see how that goes.. We'll have eto see how big my check from work is tonight.
Tonight will be the obligatory night spent at my gf's house, so no poker will be played, although I will be playing in a live game tomorrow afternoon.
I am also entering a World Series Satellite run by a guy that hosts monthly 40$ tournaments that I am a regular at. he's having 3 tournaments with a 100$ buyin, and we are expecting about 40 people for each one. If you get top 5 in any of the 3 preliminary tournaments, you are placed in the final tournament. The final 15 players will play in the final tournament, and 1st place will get 10k, second place 1k, and i think 3rd gets 200 or something; whatever it works out to be. I'm really excited because I think I have a good shot at this and 10k would be REALLLY nice.

I know. It's terrible.
But I'm going to be serious about this now, and I'll just have to stay at the lowest limits for a while.. |

if you're playing No-Limit Hold'em, at least 2000 times the big blind of whatever limit you're playing. If you're playing Limit Hold'em, at least 1000 times the big blind of whatever limit you're playing. Have a set floor for when you move down. For MTTs have at least 100 times the buy-in you're playing. Same for SNGs. |
