As some of you might know i have been on hard times the last couple of weeks and not been able to play to much poker. After losing 200 at quads place a couple weeks back that was the climax of a 72 hour 900 dollar loss. Since i am currently unemployed that hurt real bad and i had to pretty much stop playing at all and go on a job hunt(with very little success) That was three weeks ago or so.
So about a week ago i started playing again, I invested 50 bucks online and played in a 40 dollar N/L home game. I turned that 40 into a 100 and online i was able to flip the 50 to around 200. On saturday i played in a huge $10 home game tourney with 35 people and i placed second in the first tourny and 4th in the second tourney and made around 100 there.
After paying a few bills i was able to hit up the casino circuit again. I started with limelight yesterday where i played for 4 hours and only made $25 and used that to play their nightly tourny which i was knocked out of early so it was a break even day. Even though i didnt make any money it was a confidence boost to know that i can sit down at a casino and not lose all my money.
Today i started off at Ranchos and in around 2 hours i was up 100 but i wasnt really enjoying myself so i changed locations and hit up Don Juans and bought in for 60 and got their 20 bonus. In 2 1/2 hours i made 200.
So i made around 300 today and i am up a little over 500 in the last week. Also while i was at Don Juans i got a phone call for a job interview. I am just glad to be able to play cards again. I will be seeing some of you over at black sheep tommorrow.
