Creepy


Ok, have the scientists who make these robots not watched movies like Terminator or IRobot? I mean really, did you not learn by watching the matrix that cute little ASIMO will go from taking our orders to taking us out? LOL Replace that stick with a gun and were all in big trouble. You might be a cute little robot ASIMO, , but your not fooling me. HA HA.

Finally

Well it has been a ruff start getting back into playing cards. I have been very rusty in my play and just all around uncomfortable at the table. However I'm proud to say that I think things are finally moving in the right direction. I have made some adjustments in my game and I am feeling much better at the table. I'm staying away from the cash games and sticking to tournaments which has been a good move as well. Out of the last 4 tournaments I have placed 13Th out of a hundred, 4Th out of 47, and 1st out of 7. even though I'm not winning money each time I am content with how I am playing. I started wearing my IPOD from time to time and it actually helps me relax and focus more on the game. I'm picking up better reads on players and since I am more comfortable at the table I am betting correctly too. I'm playing again this Thursday and Friday and I am hoping to see similar results. Also, Shelly finally made it to play in the tournament this past Friday and did very well for her first time playing with strangers in an organized tournament. I think she was a little nervous but that's to be expected. She has only been trying to better her game for about a month and already I see a huge improvement in how she plays and even talks about the game. I'm very proud. If she keeps improving at this rate I will have to start watching my ass at the table. lol
So my plan is to continue sticking to the freeroll tournaments for now. Hopefully I continue to improve and finally get some money put together. I know I have it in me to do well at this game and be profitable, I just need to sharpen my tools and start using them.

Slowing down.


After another weekend at the table I have made some decisions. I'm having a bit of trouble making things happen at the cash game and its not doing anything good for my bankroll. As a matter of fact its kicking my bankroll right in the nuts. However I did play in the free roll tournament that was going on and won 2nd place. 2nd out of 23 people wasn't too bad and it won me $70 plus a boost in confidence. I felt comfortable and was able to play my game the way I should. Hopefully I can give it another shot this weekend and do just as well if not better than last week. I need to get some money together before I venture back to the cash table. In the tournament I made some good reads and really played my hands well. I would be a happy camper, full of confidence and well on his way to getting some money going if I didn't blow it at the tables the next night. So until I have enough set aside that I don't care if I drop $100 at the table I'm a tournament player.

Wish me luck!
