Lost $50k in Two Days!

I won't go on a long rant about how bad the tournaments have been for me because I know nobody wants to hear about that anyway.

I've visited a ton of places though, including Berlin, Barcelona, London, Nottingham, Toronto, London again, and now I'm in Budapest for the EPT.

I've also forced myself to play more online simply because I forgot what it was like to win after busting in all the live tournaments, so I needed my confidence back. It's definitely helped.

My PLO game has also improved way more than I expected in such a short period of time. I've been taking some shots in the $25/$50 games, and running at 3BB/100 after 10k hands or so (obv no sample yet, but we'll see how it goes).

I'm hoping to one day be able to move up and play higher without worrying so much about money like I do now.

I had a rough couple of days after a sick rush where I lost $50k in two days (probably nothing for the ppl who play those stakes, but that's a totally new experience for me having to deal with such big swings) ... and I'll tell you something: It didn't feel good!

However, it's part of the game, and something you just have to deal with, especially when playing Omaha.

Outside of poker, personal life is great, won't go into too much details yet but maybe next time hehe :)

Outside of poker, life is great.

Another awesome thing is that I get to play in the Premier League this year. It's a $75k televised tourney held in London. Only takes 12 entrants, and we play tons of heats vs. each other, calculate scores etc and then play final table at the end for a lot of money lol.

I honestly don't know all the details yet, but just figured I'd throw it out there!

That's all for this time ... I know I say that I'll update more, but I'll say it again just because I feel bad if I dont ... SOoooo cya guys in a week (no?) ... yea yea I'll try lol.

Laterz.
