I am reading (and enjoying it immensly, not because of your beats by the way ) however I am probably not one to offer any in depth advice  ;D ;D ;D

It just seems to be of those times when the whole world and his dog is against you and you can seem to hit nothing and every race is being battered. Concentrating on you bankroll is commendable and keep at it. Now for the other little management thingy - tilt/bad beat management  ::)

Lol, yeah I guess so. I have actually never had a rage like I did earlier. After shouting "no jack" about 20 times in the space of 10 seconds I just blew up like the hulk when it hit. Good job nobody else was in the building with me  :D ;D

In the last two live tourneys I have played, I have had my aces cracked on the final table, in this weekends APAT event ( in which I played like a donkey!) I had my kings flattened by aces, and last night on the FT of a small MTT I had AK outdrawn by QJ.
So getting your money in with the best of it is not always profitable! The thing is and it has been said before in this forum, you always remember the beats, but the suck outs and out draws fade away as just part of the game.
I have to say after the 2 FTs and losing with Aces, I was crushed, but I am now becoming alot more philosophical about the beats, I think you have to if you are going to remain sane!!

CrizzyConnor:
Yeah you"re right Mikey. I just played a quick turbo tournament before going to bed for a few hours and I ran good for a change, until the end when my push with 88 got very loosely called by QJ considering my table image until then but oh well it was a $8.80 turbo donkament so I don"t mind as much. I probably wont remember that run good in a few days but I like moaning anyway :D

I finished 22nd out of 500 runners for $30 which puts me in profit for the first session in days, it was a very short session though :D I"m getting out while the going"s good. Time for bed. I hate the night shift.

BR @ end of session $277.98



EDIT: I feel a bit more peeved off at finishing 22nd when the guy who knocked me out donked off my chips within the five hands that followed and went out in 19th. Then I looked him up on Sharkscope and he was -$27k with a straight line from one corner to the other, wish I did that before pushing into his BB. Oh well, onwards and upwards.

CrizzyConnor:
Decided to play a quick hour of cash and a dollar tournament before bed tonight, I never dented the dollar tournament but had profit in the cash games. I was playing two tables of PLO2 and ended +$2.30 in those and one table of PLO5 and ended +$6.92 in that, wish I had more time to play as I had a position on a player who would juice every single pot in the PLO5 game and was perfect to play with, he"s on my search list for some future games hopefully ;D

BR @ end of session $286.10
