Up and down

It's been a while since I last blogged. Pokerwise, things have gone way up and way down. I'm still toiling in the $2 games. I had a really hot run in $2 SNGs and then decided to switch to $5, and then tumbled downward. I guess my luck had run out. It's been quite a while since I've actually won an SNG - just not hitting hands when I get 3 handed, losing flips, etc. Overall, I'm about even.

I've started to play more PLO cash .01/.02, mostly because of the Take 2 promotion FTP has going. Basically, if you two table-cash games 25 out of 30 days in the month, they will give you $50. At the stakes I play, I would seriously have to try to lose that much in a month. Luckily, the games have been profitable for right now, albeit profitable for 1/2 cent games. Maybe I'll "take a shot" at 2/5 cent one of these days.

I didn't play at all for the first week of this month, so I can't get $50, but if I play 15 out of 30 days, I get $25. They will probably penalize my rakeback again.

I'm doing horribly in MTTs. Been a while since a decent cash. I think I'm due, but I just don't have the time or energy to play them anymore.

I'm considering a hefty cashout, since I am not playing any higher with a bigger bankroll, and since there is some uncertainty about banks and online poker. I'm thinking of taking out about half my roll, since I'm afraid there may come a day that I won't see any of it, then this will have been all for naught.
