bad day at 2/5 game + terrible run online.
Okay, so I had 5500 or so online so I decided to start playing 4 tables of 100NL and 2 tables of 200NL so I could gradually get into the 200NL game. That was going well until i lost almost $1,000. $979 to be exact. The day prior to that I lost $1,170 at the 2/5 game because I played like a complete donkey. It was essentially all my fault, but it was "only" two buy ins at that game so it's not a big deal as far as I'm concerned. The bad news is that this puts me down to a combined loss of $2,030 in 3 days. damn. Well, the good news is that I'll be getting 30+% rakeback at ultimate bet soon so i'll be taking advantage of that. The bad news is I'm down to a combined total of...
To date: $913.
Lame. Gonna take a lot of grinding to work back but I'm not giving up. In fact, I was running really well in a 10k guaranteed tourney but unfortunately I ran into kings with 4 tables left and broke even in tournaments on the day. Darn, couldve used that $4,000 first prize. Back to the grindstone I suppose.
PS: I won't be going to the saturday game unless I feel like I can play my best Tight Aggressive game there. No bluffing allowed at that game except in rare situations. That's all.

Im at 49 buy ins for .5/1.00. I think I may move up when I reach $5,000. I think 25 buy ins is ok because I know that I beat 1/2 at a decent win rate. If I fall below 4,200 I'll drop right back down to 100NL

Christmas so I didn't really play but I made a total of $612 over the past 3 days so that's good. Almost won a seat to WPT-PCA in the bahamas, but I guess I'll just have to wait until next year to try to get into a big tournament. I'm under 21 still so i'll have to try to qualify for some offshore ones.

Did really horrible in the live game on Tuesday, but I came back later that night and cleaned it up, I was in for 900 and cashed out about 1600 so that was good. Today I played about $350 worth of MTTs and didnt cash in any of them. Fortunately I made $675 playing 1/2 on UltimateBet while I was in the MTTs, making myself 300 profit for the day or so.
So for the two days I made $709 putting me at...

w00t broke the 3k barrier. Took me 22 Days to do it, but i think most people don't make 3k in 3 weeks so I'm not too worried about it.
Ps: On a bright note, I fully countered my downswing at the beginning and again in the middle of this month. I made all of my money back and i'm in the green for december! yesss. Now I have 4 days in which to play to determine how much I'll have made for the month, but overcoming that horrible 3k downswing at the beginning of this month already feels like a tremendous victory.
I'll be skipping my thursday night game this week to go to a wedding, but i'll play online at night. I plan on going out on Saturday to the 2/5 game with a couple friends so hopefully we clean that up.

not great but I made some losses back that I had earlier in the day. I still don't have rakeback confirmed at UB, wonder what's up with that.
