So over the past week 10 days I have moved up to NL400 and managed to qualify for the $1050 WCOOP event, as was my goal (albeit I did it though a sat rather than direct FPP buyin). The tourney was going quite well, despite a pretty rough start where I lost pots with KK and two instances of AK, dropping me down to 1/2 starting stack. Unfortunately, I busted right out of the money with 66 vs JJ blind button battle. In retrospect, that might have been a mistake since the guy seemed quite tight, but I had so little information on him that I could not be sure as to its reliability. Oh well. For most part, I think I played well.
NL400 has been going quite well. It is quite impressive, the kind of money you can make at this level considering it's far from high stakes online.
I also played a $109 MTT on Monday, and had a deep run in that, busting in 33rd when my opponent flopped a set with his 55 vs my 99. Got about $300 for my trouble, which is all right, but somewhat frustrating considering I came within a shouting distance of making another FT.
In the coming weeks I'm going to try to play 1-2 MTTs every other day. I tend to do well in them overall, but that's not the main reason. The best thing for me I noticed is that playing in an MTT forces me to spend certain time playing, making it easier to meet my number of hands per day goals.
So all in all, these past few days have been nicely profitable despite the 2 frustrating tourney runs, just missing the money in the 1k WCOOP event and just missing the FT in the $109. I will spend about $500 and what ever FPPs I get this week trying to qualify for the WCOOP Main Event. It's not much, but let's see what happens. Playing in that event would be very nice since it's going to be soft due to all the publicity it gets, and even barely cashing in it is a respectable tourney score.
