The second final table I made a huge mistake at the end bvb with one player still in who had been sitting out for over an hr. Could have easily made 30% more gaur if I just chilled. Also played horrible today. Don't know why, but it just wasn't a good day for me.

Gettin a wisdom tooth pulled today and from what I've heard I'm likely to be in too much pain to grind the next two days. Sucks that I can't smoke either.

Keep going deep in tourneys but keep runnin bad where it counts. Made a questionable play to end the day, but I think it was somewhat std. Found out I can smoke my ecig as long as I puff it very lightly. So out of it from pain meds right now.

Been a while since I checked your thread. Nice progress and threadsavers! I'm curious, what kind of bankroll management do you follow? And does it change as you move up in stakes?

Been a while since I've seen you around kellerz! How's life? I haven't really been moving up much in stakes in the last year at all. My brm is wayyyy too cautious but it is because I only have $6k to my name. I started playing out $1-5 buyins a year and a half ago and have since started playing mainly 5-30$ buyins. Occasionally I play buyins as high as 220$. I literally have way more than 100 buyins at the buyin levels I play.

I've been very busy finishing up my thesis film for school, so not much time for poker lately. I had to uninstall all poker software to keep myself from playing. I used to only register for MTTs that I had 100 buyins or more for. I need to get back to stricter BRM when I get back to playing. If you would be interested in playing in a heads up tournament with some 2p2ers, check out this thread http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/32...37/index9.html

Thats cool. Goodluck with your thesis. I don't think much can actually keep me from playing. Even the best players can go on 200+ mtt buyin downswings. Happened to agentduque. I don't believe in having the 100+ buyins for any reason other then the fact it makes me feel like I have a big cushion just in case I get bovadamized lol. This is now my fourth day in a row where one of my ppaa's got cracked. Played them all correct too. Strict brm is the only way 99% of ppl will have any longevity in their poker careers. Without it I'd be long gone by now. That headsup tourney sounds really fun, but I'm too lazy to set up a paypal just to play it and worry about communicating with team mates over it. If it was just a play money headsup tourney I'd def play, but the money aspect ruins it as it requires extra work on my part. Playing against other 2+2ers and actual ps players does sound enticing though.

Been running horrible for as long as I can remember now. Today was just another nightmare.

Probably taking today off. Doctor, optometrist, and dentist apts today and incredibly sleep deprived. If I play I will gaur make more mistakes then usual. I think sleeping a good 12 hrs after I get back from the dentist will help me out huge for the upcoming week. I also want to go see the new Godzilla movie in IMAX tomorrow, but I plan on playing tomorrow too so don't really know how that will fit in.

More runbad. Just feels like all day everyday I see players doing the dumbest things imaginable and building huge stacks while I try to play every situation as close to perfect as possible and get coolered over and over. In the hi/lo rebuy where I spent 45$ Every single hand I was allin with monster hands preflop or postflop with during the rebuy period I lost. These people go allin with me on 934 flops with tt9k vs my a259 and spike tens all day while I blank. So tilting.

Hah literally pmd you 1 sec b4 I saw you posted here lol.

Not playing today bc I have real life stuff to take care of. Also educating myself on how we're going to colonize mars in probably the next 6 years or so.

When I start getting absolutely crushed and everything I could possibly imagine going wrong goes wrong(especially on a long slightly winning/breakeven streak) I sometimes take a step back from poker to think about where I'm at and where I came from. I started the New Year with $250 in my acct and $0 cash. Like can't afford McDonalds $0 or like if this next check doesn't arrive what am I going to do. Now, I have $25 in cash and 2 $2500 checks on the way and the first is arriving in 2 days, AND $900ish in my acct. In a month or so I will be playing a $1500 buyin plo8 event in Vegas courtesy of Bovada's Contender Series Finale satty bink last year.. I will be grinding cash everyday before and everyday after the event. Life isn't so bad after all.

I just think I need to not rely on poker so much as the last 2 months I've only made $2000 which is incredibly low to live on. Still managed to save money, but it's not enough. When I get back from Vegas I think I need to buy a car asap and drive around everyday looking for a job that pays $15/hr or more until I get one. I think I should be working as much as I can M-F and playing all day like 12-14hrs on Sat-Sun until I have more then 10k. This is what I think I will do if I don't win something big in Vegas this year.

I also will probably be starting a tshirt company that makes awesome/ironic/incredibly sick poker and edm shirts and hoodies. Sometime after I get back from Vegas.

LOL my bad, not my intention. Mostly I just listen to podcasts when I'm playing. r3hab, knife party, nicky romero, avicii, afrojack, tiesto, etc. Don't get me wrong I'll still listen to old school stuff too but not older edm.
