I got off to a good start and won a good few pots to get upto 4.5k but about 5 mins before the first break I lost most of that with top two pair vs a set. Down to 1.4k with antes and blinds at 10/50/100... :(

CrizzyConnor:
Bit of a rollercoaster:

Got back upto 3K squeezing out the SB, then doubled up to 6.5k with AK vs AJ.
Then lost 5k straight away with KK vs AA on 424 board.
1.5k > 3K again with AK vs 22
3k > busto with AQ vs KQ a.i.p.f --- board = AT4, turn = J.

Out 589th from 1,257 runners

BR @ end of session $294.81

Ok so I played a little more. Decided to load up one table of 25PLO for around an hour to see the quality of the play at that level. The quality wasn"t much different except for being a little tighter, not massively different though. I think money could be made if I was 4-tabling. Don"t have the b/roll for it quite yet, soon I hope :D I left the table +$6.80 which wasn"t great but still profit, my end total for the session was $290.81

Fell off the wagon...

Ok so I decide to play today but I don't know why as I wasn't  in the right frame of mind for it. I really couldn't be bothered grinding out $4 & $5 games so fired up a bunch of games outside my roll and failed to cash in any of them, although a series of bad beats lead to my demise in the $33 game when I was going quite well up until then. So I played and failed to cash in the following MTTs:

$8.80 PLO
$11 PLO
$33 NLHE
$11 NLHE
25PLO Cash - I was up $10 at one point but ended -$2.55

I felt myself losing concentration throughout the session, I was loading up games in one of those robot moods - just clicking games open and not really wanting to play but not realising it until 3 seconds after the game's started then when I inevitably crash out clicking another one straight away before realising yet again I don't actually want to be playing. After crashing out of my final tourney and being slightly down in the cash game but realising I shouldn't be playing I managed to finally hit that little x on the top right hand corner. Looking at the totals for the day I wish I could be more restrained all the time and realise that if I can't be bothered grinding games within my roll then I should see this as a sign that I shouldn't be playing at all.

BR @ end of session $224.46
