Erimus:
Trying to keep this updated on a weekly basis, this one is a bit late,this is the first opportunity to get some thing down.
Poker wise been a bit disappointing started of ok winning Gers game on Sky,a few sngs and a couple of min cashes getting me up $200 so not a bad start to the month, this last week though has seen that profit turn into a loss of $150 played a few higher buy in games on Stars and had no cashes in last 15 mtts, looking at HEM I have just been running into big hands when pushing to get a stack or pushing to survive, the amount of times I have ran into AA is becoming a bit of a joke the last 5 mtts I have gone out to AA, twice when I have had KK and others pairs,or big aces hey ho take it on the chin move on hope the next 15 games turn it around.
I was interested to read Leigh's article on enjoying poker, this definitely struck a chord with me, I usually play the local 30 freeze out once a week but the last few times I have been there it has been a massive pain in the neck, as soon as I sat down didn"t really want to play, I have just gone out of habit, so I think a rest from this is required, will take a break for a few weeks to see if I can get the love back, the Riley"s game on a Thursday I look forward too and this will still be attended, it"s a good laugh and not taken too seriously, just a bunch of decent people having a game of cards and a drink.
The first Apat game I attended was up in Edinburgh a few years ago, this was the first time I had played in an event costing >30 and was really nervous, I remember Leigh being at my table and he managed to call my hand when I had AAA when my trembling hands pushed the chips across the line against a straight draw, a few years down the line I don"t think I shake as much now as I did then, I really enjoyed that tournament and I want to get back to enjoying the game for what it is, a hobby were I can make a bit of extra cash here and there, if I don"t get the extra cash so be it, but I have to get back to enjoying the game.
Run good, be healthy and good luck.

Good news regarding Stars for the new league format, really pleased with that, less mucking about depositing here and there, the software is second to none, with all the extra incentives added will be a definite Sunday fixture.
Had a good day on Stars today got a 5th for $753 in 10k freezout, was always short stacked on the final table,so was happy with the laddering, missed a massive flush and straight draw just before final table which left me in grind mode with 15 bigs on the ft.
I cashed a bit out and decided to have a go at a sat for Dtds £50k gtee at the weekend, I managed to bink a seat to that so I will be playing Friday night hopefully the run good will continue, I understand it"s a re entry format so I might take a second bullet just in case, watch this space for further developments.
I also managed to win the mtt (sng really) at the local G last night for £170, with another member of Apat finishing 2cd.
I shall be updating on Twitter so if any one fancies a sweat Erimus1 is user name.
Run good, be healthy and good luck.
