day 2

Went to Foxwoods this morning bought into the $1/2 game for the min. which is $60...turned that into about $350. First hand I played aq got it in bad but rivered a q to beat ak. It was all up hill from there. Finished the day about +200. I learn a ton more about poker when going to the casino than I learn online. The games are also really easy and I have a lot more fun. That's all for now.

Being that I am a losing poker player, I feel the need to change something in my life or approach so that things can start to (hopefully) change. First and foremost, I must estimate my losses so that I have something to evaluate my play and see when I can try and turn from a loss to a profit. I am not going to post this number, but maybe in time I will let it out. Secondly, I need to have better bankroll management both in life and in poker. I need to play smaller stakes, and start saving more...

I was I think 2/50 in a $11 rebuy omaha8 and fell asleep. Also played a $3 nlhe tourney got really hot then ak ran into qq for $27. Played the $1/1 at Mohegan last Wednesay. Won maybe 2 pots the first few hours an then picke up AKs. Flopped a king and it got messy from there. I though the board paired on the turn but there was a possible flush and I end up stacking a girl that just sat down. Its kind of motivated me to play better in the future. I'll be going to Foxwoods next week and will...

Well I'm taking at the least a break from online. I've been running good, but still can't make a profit. It is all too easy to go on tilt online, and my game clearly isn't up to the challange. I plan on going to Mohegan later this month and see if I can continue my "success" there. The $1/2 nl there is very loose and it is entertaining. I think my first live tourney there was a failure because I made one big mistake. Somewhere between the early/middle stage I played a hand too tight....
