Now I know why I stopped doing the blog...

Because right after I blog about how things are going right, they suddenly go so wrong. Played some yesterday while taking care of my daughter. Lost some, won some. Played like shit in the $1 at 1 tourney. Ran up a pretty big stack by getting JJ vs. AK AIPF - flop came A high, but I rivered the J. My opponent got knocked down to about 800 chips, but miraculously came back, and then eventually crippled me when I made a GOD AWFUL rr in lat position with AK - we got it all in on the flop, which missed me, BTW, and he had AA. That knocked me down from about 8k chips to 3k. Then the next hand, I have K7 suited, and get it all in on a K75 flop. Great spot to double, but my opponent had 55 and that's all she wrote. Missed the money again because I played like an idiot.

Won a $2 SNG after that to recoup the losses in the day, then ended up blowing it by losing a couple HU PLO games because I didn't play with any kind of patience. HU PLO is suddenly not going well.

Been a while

My brother asked me if the blog was dead and I said yes. There was no real reason not to continue it except for the fact that I was in an enormous poker funk.

August was a small losing month for me, and I moved down in stakes, playing almost strictly $2 games. It has been going ok. I am about $70 off from my recent BR highest. I was recently down to about minus $140 from the highest point. I attribute some of that to the fact that I did three $10 cash transfers to the other guy who work(ed) at my office (and got cash back), and to one night when I poured $30 down the drain in cash PLO. Yeah, that was a bad night.

October turned small winner, and November is going ok (see monthly graph). I got a sharkscope star in HU PLO under $2, which is pretty cool. I should be able to maintain it until year's end which would be cool. That game is so streaky though. I find it amazing that I'm still ranked after some of the bad runs that I go on. I do run well at times, though so it's a give and take. I'm also pretty sure that if sharkscope tracked everyone that my name wouldn't even be close to the top of the list. It was only after I submitted my name for consideration that it popped up. There are certain times that I feel so keyed into that game though, and just rip off 7-8 straight wins. I feel like HU brings out the competitor in me moreso than 9-handed SNGs.

For a while, I had almost completely stopped playing holdem. I'm back playing the $2 SNGs now with some moderate success. I think it will be a while until I got back to the $5 games again. Moving down is always easy. Moving up is difficult because if you lose $10 really quickly, you know it's going to take a lot of $2 games to grind that back.
