5 hours of poker later...

After 3 sessions and 5 hours of poker I came out on the other end with a modest profit, but slightly tilted.

Let me get the negativity out the way first. I was deep into a field of over 4,000 in a $20,000 Freeroll on Stars, and managed to get my chips in pre flop with over 70% equity, and was set up for a nice double up...



With under 200 runners left, I would of really made a push to the final table. But l swear I run so fucking bad that I actually know I am going to be dealt a bad beat before the cards are dealt, they always manage to find a create way of cracking my hands...


I just feel so disappointed. I so desperately want to win a deep field tournament, or have a decent cash. I have a pretty good record, and tend to make the money often but I just cant close the deal. Meh..at least I am cashing I suppose...(awful attitude!)...



So I got $20...great! My bad form continued on Stars through onto the cash games, and I dropped several buy ins. However I am hitting some good form on Party Poker and playing well.
In the end I recorded a decent profit of around $160 for the night (inclusive of the tournament winnings!).



Although the $200 into $1,000 challenge is not going very well, I am more than satisfied with my win rate on Party Poker. I am hoping to remain consistent and progress onto the $1-$2 tables next week.



On my way back to confidence!
