Finally a three figure win lol
After collecting a bunch of small wins, I finally have a decent win. I played my usual 6-12 oe game the other day. It was a tough day for me. I battled through and I am so glad I stuck it out. Originally, I had dinner plans with my in laws but because they were cancelled, I was able to play a little bit longer than I normally would. That was a huge turning point. Had I left when I was suppose to, this entry would have been completely different. I was getting crushed. My first three hands, aa26, a236, and kk23, got hammered. I hit good flops, got many bets in ahead, and lost every single one. Quickly, I ws down $200+. Then I got whittled away further after some bad beats to down $500. I tried not to get down on myself, but it was really frustrating. I was playing solid poker and the payoff was not there. But, patience is a virtue and I stuck it out. I went on a nice run and took down a couple big pots. 2 hours later I was up $102 and called it a day. It was my third winning session in a row. It felt great to have a winning streak after the March I had. It has given me some confidence going forward and makes me optimistice for the summer and Vegas. As for the circuit, I have come up with a plan. It does not appear like I have the time or bankroll to play their big events. The Easter holiday has me committed to family and I do not want to disappoint them. And buying in for a big tourney without regard to proper bankroll management scares me. So I have decided to play some of their cheaper events, satellites, and survivor events. I will play one more cash session before I take on this next quest. Hopefully I can make it four in a row winning sessions heading in to tournament play. I am feeling good and I am playing good (well for the grammar police lol). I believe this could be my jumping off point. This could be the beginning of where it all starts to come together. In any regard, good luck and see you on the felt.
