    <span> 2010 MTT Results as of May 21st: Total Profit = $25,177.30


    </span>
    ooooooo hi there readers of my blog :)

    So tonight was a goot goot night imo. After last night's 3rd in the 15K 6max KO I was feeling pretty confident and ready for another session.

    Tonight I took 6th in the $33 18k Guarantee on Stars for 1k. Then I took 3rd in the $10r 15k Guaranteed on full tilt for 1.7k. Then to top it off I took 2nd in the $75 20k Guarantee for a smooth 3.3K. I should have won the 20K. We were even in chips and we got it all in my AQdd to his AJo. KJxxx bluh. So w/e. Can't do anything about that.

    I feel the relief I knew I'd feel right now.

    K news time. Live Pokerz.

    This Friday I'm playing a $360 satellite to the Heartland Poker Tour here in Mt. Pleasant, MI. The main event buyin is $1650 (which I won't pay directly) but I'll surely play the satty to get in. The Heartland Tour has televised FTs on VS so that would be awesome.

    Also, on June 14th through the 17th I'll be in Vegas @ The Venetian playing three of their $330 Deepstack events on the 14th, 15th, and 16th. I also hope to grind the cash tables for a bit and make some there.

    So weeeeeee just like that. I was down like 7 to 8k over a month and then in two nights I reach a new peak profit for the year of $25,117.00

    Poker is such a sickkkkkkkkk sickkkkk game!!!!!!!!

    <span> 2010 MTT Results as of May 17th: Total Profit = $19,601.55
    </span>

    Two nights ago I got 2nd in a late $33 6max on UB for just under 1k. Then last night I got 3rd in the $26 6max KO 15K guarantee on full tilt for 1.7k.

    These scores put a moderate dent in my downswing but what they do more importantly is give me my confidence back. They let me know I CAN win flips late. They let me know I CAN hold when a 4:1 fav. They let me know I CAN win the occasional important 60/40.

    So when I start my session tonight I'll have some extra confidence going in.

    <span> 2010 MTT Results as of May 10th: Total Profit = $18,969.18</span>


    The blog title is a bit of a joke.

    I'm starting a medication today that is supposed to be very sedating and possibly make me incredibly sleepy or be "out of it" for a few days.

    The half-joke with the blog title is regarding my recent poker results. With the current downswing I'm on, perhaps I won't mind being "sedated".

    Since my peak yearly profit of $23,836 on April 16th (twenty-four days ago) I'm down $4,867 to $18,969. With my average buyin being at $45, that puts my downswing at 108 buyins. This has occurred over the course of 222 tourneys.

    Also, I ran my "Stepping My Way to The WSOP" plan for six days, costing me $450. I didn't earn a single Step 5 ticket. And while this is normal variance, I'm definitely putting this plan on an indefinite hold until my MTT situation turns around. Winning a Main Event seat is secondary to my living of playing tourneys online.

    Well sorry about the depressing post. This game is incredibly unglamorous sometimes, just like life. I'm trying my hardest to make it through times like these, something I've struggled a great deal with in the past.

    gl out there.
