I spent the first month in Las Vegas refining my FR game because I am way too lag on the 1/2 tables. After a month of doing so, I reverted back to my regular game, 6max, since its time to start making real money.
I fixed some major leaks I had in fr for when I visit the casino, although I'm mostly an online player and will be mostly just that until I have $18k (then ill put 8k in the cage for 1/2 and leave 10k online)
Now I'm very confident I will be able to win in the casino on a regular basis and at home in my 6max games, time well spent imo.
During my 1st month in Las Vegas, I've learned how bad my ego was, how much I have to learn, humbled myself alot, learned theres a big difference between confidence and ego, and learned that I am NO WHERE NEAR the top MTT players (thx bigred000)
Also got stoned with bigred on 4/20 and listened to a lot of his tournament philosophy, felt like i was a student sitting in a chair listening to a great teacher. Was an awesome experience, although I was really fucking high and alot of it didn't stick, so you better get your ass over here today or this weekend bigred :-)
Ah, heres my graphs so far from online since arriving in Las Vegas.
Going to continue to grind online until I have 18k like said before, I don't want to be staked anymore by anyone ever again, not for sundays or anything. I only want to do this on my own for now on.
During WSOP time, after I learn more about MTT's from pxfactor and stoxpoker I will start taking MTTs seriously, although I am and always will be a fulltime cashgame player.
(I will sell %'s of me to people stupid enough to buy them! Just playin, I'm sure when the stakes are high and prizes are high I'll be at my 100% best game.)
I won't be going back into the MTT circuit til my online roll gets much larger though, and realize after talking with bigred how much I need to learn to be a competent winning tournament player itlr and not just a lucky donk. :-)
Hrm, lovin vegas
rS.evade has railed me during a session I played yesterday, and found two major leaks I had in my game that I never recognized as leaks for the last years, which will drastically improve my winrate itlr. He also taught me how to use the huds correctly, and am very appreciative for what he has helped me with. I believe that I'm now capable of being a winner on midstakes, but only time will tell.
He also clogged our toilet, lol, someone send a plumber to our apartment plz. Its been like 3 days and still nobody has come to fix it. wtf! Its like im living in the phillipines or something -_-
OK guys, gonna go eat and relax for an hour or so and put in another 1-5k hands
GL LP,

yeah he lost like 2k on NL100 according to a previous blog so he obv didn't post his full month results, just the limits where he won money. What's the BR at now? I thought you had like 8k before going to vegas.
