non nlhe night

Last night I cashed two tourneys for a small profit including a win in a triple stud, but blew it at .25/.50 where I doubled up but then gradually lost it all in an up and down battle all night, last hand was open ended str8 flush draw vs set and I whiffed. not gonna play .25 /.50 as it's just too high for my teeny bankroll. a $40 loss in a ring game is crippling. My initial $200 was at $256, ended the night at $231.

Tonight played freeroll razz on ftp busted a little better than halfway. A $4.40 KO on UB where I bubbled but did score $2 in KO's. on stars I took 6th in a L5draw game for $12 and won a $16.50 stud tourney for $67.50. Also min cashed their .25 $100 added nlhe for like .33 lol. Anyway a good solid night and that's three wins in non-nlhe tourneys in 3 nights (Horse, triple stud and stud).

As an old east coast stud player I no that my advantage is bigger in the other games, just glad I have a few small buy in options (technically the 16.50 stud is way to big but I feel my edge is that huge) to help build my stack.

so I have $17.10 on UB, $285.53 on stars and just my $75 tourney chip on ftp that will be put into use in stud tomorrow night. started with $25 on UB, $200 on Stars and $0 but 21k points on FTP.

Nice to start this process in a positive direction.
