Made my first 'real' deposit (not counting 50$ one time like a year ago that I used to donk off slowly) and have been running 3bb/pt over like 10k hands on FTP NL25 FR. I ran sick hot for the first few sessions but have leveled off since. Im starting to make better folds and am getting reads and trustworthy notes on a lot of players. Im sticking to 2 and 4 tabling for now since my robot poker 9+ table mode is a losing proposition right now. The first 50$ I donked off before was used to robot mode NL2 since it was so tilting trying to play cheeseburgers. W/e live learn abahlbhllhabhlab

Ive also been making some MTT days and am playing a bunch of the 5.50r, 3.30r, Daily Double, and Midnight Madness tourneys. Im cashing prolly 75% of the time but I keep running into a bad beat/cooler when I get deep and havent made a final table yet. I also cashed 3 out of the 5 Mini FTOPS events I played last go around but made a few bad moves deep and missed out on big money. I hope to pepper the tourney performances thread with a few take downs soon.

Im debating whether its worth it right now to buy HEM or PT3 while playing these limits. Also feeling pretty dumb that I didnt make a rakeback account when I first started.

Oh yeah!

Im leaving for dealer school in Tunica around the first week of November. Ill be going to the Casino College of MS thats next to the Harrah's (i think). I dont really NEED the school seeing as Ive been dealing on and off for a local bar poker league for a few years now. It was actually decent money for a second job at night. Plus I got a ton of live practice in before I starting playing the live 1/2, 2/2 games out in ATL. I have a few friends that deal the WPT/WSOP tourney circuit right now and theyve been urging me to give the professional thing a try since Im still out of school (going on like 2 years now!!! ARGH!!!). I also happen to be an excellent dealer. Im just really hoping that this little certificate I get and the job placement programs they have will help me score a job fast. Im hoping to get a gig in vegas, san diego, or foxwoods after Im done with their program but that is sounding like a long shot. The guy who owns the place was telling me my best bet might be the tourney circuit but we'll see. Anyway, if any of you LPer's are in the Tunica area and want to grab some drinks and/or help me take down some rednecks on the felt feel free to give me a PM. Woteva...jakey's...yellow shirts, etc.
