Reason for the blog is last night....

Alright, well this is my first entry besides the intro. As stated before, the reason for starting this was to hold myself accountable for bankroll decisions and my play. So last night I went on tilt for the first time in a while playing 3 tables of 1/2 NL on FTP and Stars and eventually played a $75 ftops sattied which I of course bubbled thanks to the shortstack winning 4 conflips in a row and splitting v me all in w/ my a10 v a5. Anyway, I literally almost took my entire roll to 5/10 on both sites but restrained thank god as I am really am committed to sustaining a bankroll this time as opposed to the past when all i could think about every day was doubling my stack. I'm gonna do my best to keep my bankrolls updated on here. As of Day 1 of my blog the bankroll on each site is:

Pokerstars: $1030.05
Full Tilt: $706.50

It's pretty obvious that 3 tabling 1/2 is playing outta my roll...it could be argued that .5/1 is outta my roll as well but from now on if and when I decide to play cash its gonna be .5/1. I think I am mostly gonna stick to MTT's for a while though. The time I have spent studying the game has mostly been based around MTT's and feel that right now thats my strongest type of game. I haven't had a big score yet but have been deep in a few tourneys and know that as long as I keep getting it in ahead I'll get there.

So today's Thursday (for those who don't know, consultants typically work m-th), and that means that tonight is my big poker night. I usually cant play the latenight MTT's because I have to wake up early but Thursdays are my big nights and usually try to play as many as I can. Here's the tourneys I'm definitely playing and more will be added most likely as I'm able to check the schedule:

Stars:
$27.50 25k guaranteed at 8:00
$3R at 8:00
$55 50k guaranteed at 9:30
possibly the $10R at 10:00

FTP:
$26 24k guaranteed at 8:00
$12 Daily Double A at 9:00
$12 Daily Double B at 9:00
$26 28k guaranteed at 10:00

Those are my plans for right now and I may skip the 10:00 tourneys if I'm still alive in 2-3 of the early tourneys. I'm trying not to do more than 3-4 tables right now. Alright, back to work for 3 more hours then back to Atlanta. Update latenight w/ results/updated bankrolls.
