Boy, I Needed That!

It looks like I have a history of getting lucky, peaking, and playing badly the next night. In this case, I hit $50 and then went on a slide. After not doing much at the .01/.02 tables today, I decided to enter a 45 player S&G. I won the tournament, which paid $14. It was a good way to finish a frustrating 2 days. Saturday I tried to go to Argosy but I-71 was closed and I had to turn around and go home. This morning, I drove down for the $115 88 player tournament, but it was sold out when I got down there. The wait was way over an hour for a seat at a cash game, so I went home with no poker for the second time in 15 hours.

Maybe I'll try more 45 player tourneys; when my bankroll was smaller, it didn't seem to make sense. I'm ready to give it a try more often. Maybe some time away from the ring games will do me some good. I'm happy to have figured out how to include my dates on the graph; I'd been working on that for a while.

This is great stuff!

The greatest benefit of this challenge is the introspection it forces on a player...

I love the charts...

Would love to see you recount a hand or two from each session that provided you insight into your play or the play of others...

Let's go to Argosy together sometime soon...

I will share stories from Vegas with you when I see you next...
