After that big buyin, stuff just fell apart. All my wagers sucked. I had no clue how to play poker. A real miserable week. Finally last night I turned to playing cash games. Analyzing what the players were doing and how they played seemed to help.
I still made mistakes in that cash game, but knew they were mistakes and hopefully learned from them. Today, i have won two tournaments and gotten a 2nd in another. Everything I am playing is working. Its not just cards either, but a lot of good choices not to play and when to play.
After making about $200 before 6 pm today, I took a break and did a lot of the drudge work on setting up the November 24 Hour Poker Marathon. Most of the hard stuff like data entry is done. Some passwords still need checking and a couple of corrections need to be done, but otherwise we are ready to go for November 28-29th.
Mostly I did CM (Crushingly Mundane) all day yesterday. I played some poker, but nothing serious. I wound up -$4.68 for the day, but was not really trying.
One thing I discovered is the Sportsbook Poker NFL Primetime ring games. Play in these, get fpp’s and qualify for some pretty sweet freerolls. Weekly $10k freerolls and an end of the month $30k freeroll. A lot more points in 10 days for me to get in the big one, so expect more cash games in the report.
Except for a few of those, I will probably just chill till the marathon
I hardly played yesterday, but when I did, I played poorly. Another day, another wager bailing out poker. I plan to take it easy on the poker front and rest up for the 24 Hour Poker Marathon coming this weekend. My play has been sub-par, and that needs fixing anyway. A little introspection for a couple days couldn’t hurt.
Six tournaments, one ring game and one wager bailout -8.13 for the day.
Personal life stuff today. if I play it won’t be much.
