150k Gar. on Pstars 32nd out of 29.5k players

I just had a chance to make the big bucks in a tournament and I blew it. I am not really upset, but the difference in 26k and $85 is pretty drastic. I played exceptionally well, but I made a read late and although the read was solid I was still beat. In the hand I thought that 2nd pair was good on 1087 board and I thought that my opponent was betting with a straight draw. It ended up being 99 so although I was right, it kind of backfired on me. O well.... You cant expect to runt hat deep in such a field ever again, but I can defy the odds again I am sure.

Other that the tournament, online poker has been slow and break even since my downswing early august. My nursing school orientation is tomorrow so poker will be put in the background for awhile. That is all for now.

PS. I was talked into getting an LA Fitness membership so lets see if this helps me getting jacked and lean!

Organizing my poker and nursing life starting now

It has been so long since I have been on here that I forgot I had this account to be honest...but no good to dwell on that.

I am about to start nursing school in a couple weeks so I find that I will either be on here often blogging or once again not to be heard of for a couple years.

For poker, I have been all over the place. I played live cash, 180's, 9-mans, 6-mans, and now I am almost fully playing heads up sngs. With the help of some top tier hu pros, I believe I will have more success in this game compared to others. I am still playing tournaments, but I have not made a cash bigger than 1.2k so the thoughts of hitting it big seem so far away. I plan to play 500 hu sngs a month and will post my monthly results here starting with the July.

That is all for now. I do hope I turn it around soon because time is money!
