Nice play Mark, 13th in that field is an achievement. Never mind the reward, look at it as 25 x your buy in and that"s nice profit in anyone"s book. Well done mate  8)

The only highlight was 4betting all in with AK to get snapped off by JP's aces. Obviously binked a straight on the turn.. It felt a bit gross actually; I'm too nice to revel in administering bad beats.


FYP

Never feel gross when you"ve done nothing wrong Mark. The chips were always going in pre with your stack at the time.

Look forward to playing with you again

Was great sharing a table with you again Mark, unfortunately for too short a spell this time but hope to catch up again soon.

Good to share a table with you too Grant and JP. I had so many hero tables, was pretty cool, a real APAT who's who.

Running terrible this week, bricked nearly 30 tournaments in a row. Pretty much the worst downswing I have had but not worried as still playing fine in the most part. My annoyance at turbo"s is growing.... I play a fair few turbo's and there is an abundance of them on Stars at the micro level. I have been tempted to just stop playing them as I know my ROI in them has been crap. The philosophy that playing turbo"s takes away your edge on the field is valid but playing this level is all about volume and can't afford to take them out of the schedule. I still need to do some work on my push fold ranges as doubting myself again.

I went to see Paranormal Activity 3 with the girlfriend today... love a good scary film although I am a total sissy and watched most of it through my hands. I actually came away thinking that the film wasn't that good which was disappointing as I had read a few good reviews. The concept of the home videos is still scary as hell but it feels like this whole franchise is heading down the "Saw" route with a never ending and more and more complicated story.

Plan is to have a quick swim tomorrow morning and put a proper long session in the afternoon/evening... #winning

Brief downswing over and a much better session so far today culminating in 5/671 for $35. So frustrating not converting one of these final tables but I know its coming.

A quick look at my appraisal and send that off to the boss and then back onto the pokers for an evening session.  8)

Just been catching up on the last two pages and still enjoying your blog.

Do you think you might loosen up your bankroll to allow you to play some slightly bigger buy-ins now and try and capitalise a little more on these good runs you are having?  At least consider using a few buy-ins to take a few shots.
