bitching...

I have to bitch or i'll melt down. Forced myself to take a break, sitting back down for the late night FPP Happy Hour. This is the shit that drives me up the wall - after four hours of bludgeoning my way back into the green, i'm finally about $5 up and here is where it goes in one hand:

idiocy

i don't know why i only seem to play sharp when i'm to the felt. i played some LHE, took a hit, hit a stride in SnGs, built myself up a little bit, then sat down again LHE outside my bankroll and scratched myself down to about where i was before, now i have like 1o table hours to put in to build myself back up right. so here it is, in writing, 'cuz that seems to work at least for a little bit - i'm sticking to SnGs and eventually tourneys for now. I've been crushing $2 SnGs, which is great, but i'd like to move UP and now i'm staying put. i've just been 1 tabling to try and get back into things, and now i HAVE to grind out at least 10 more hours at $2 1tbl SnGs. not something i'm looking forward to, but i KEEP being STUPID with my bankroll this low. i see a bit and try to play like i'm seeing a lot. *sigh*

back to it.

break over

so a rough start. pretty up and down playing micro stakes NL 6max, stalled nowhere 6max LHE, but bringing it back having found a groove in the micro SnGs... almost back to even, and hopefully i can stick with this and take it somewhere... pt3 numbers to come when i have slightly more relevant quantity maybe, but i'm trying not to think about them and just stay in the moment... afraid i'll jinx it, haha (alright done for the night and putting them out of my head asap, but for the record: 27/14/2.5, and i apparently need to outright remove K/9o from my list of playable hands). just some motivation for now:
