2nd cash this week...
Well nothing really major to brag about because it was just a mincash this time. But cashed in the Turbo Fiddy again, 45 places paid out of a field of 400, came 8th 2 days ago and just got 32nd. I'm starting to like these turbo tournaments, as I seem to run good at flips. The cash netted me $80, minus BI and rake, its a profit of $25. Not much but its a start with getting this tournament practice in.
I'll most likely play some 6max SNG's and 25nl tonight to mix it up a bit. For now I'll do some work to earn some real money and revisit it later in the night. I'll leave you with a bubble hand, 47 runners left and 45 places paid. I wanted to put some pressure on once it folded to me, don't you hate it when this happens! Here it is:

EDIT:
Played some 25nl, played about the same length of time - 90 minutes. Played TERRIBAD. Down 5 BI. I called it quits, although I was making tilting calls around 200 hands in the session so I closed all tables, went off, did the dishes, grabbed a beer and tried again. At this stage I was down 4 BI, played pretty much break even for 275 hands and then the variance train arrived and I dropped another few BI's below EV after some opponents sucked out on me. EV: -$84, Real: -$126. My bankroll was crushed so I'll most likely go back to SNG's and if I try out ring, I'll most likely step down to 10nl. Just too shakey for me at the moment with the cash games...
EDIT EDIT:Â
Did my 6max sessions, and I'm definitely doomswitched today, running around 5 BI below EV from final AI busto, not to mention the amount of times I got outdrawn when I put my chips in ahead. My BR got even more bruised so its back down to $5 6 max SNG's. I shouldn't have stepped up so early. I'm not playing with scared money but a downward swingy day like this does hurt. Won't give up!
Oh, and on FT, every time someone asks me for a chop on the final HU, I always decline and lose?? Whats up with that. Every other time I come out on top -_- Its like they're mental doomswitching me...
