Back in the money again finally!!!!!

Well after a terrible dowswing the past week or two, I am back ITM again finally! I started yesterday with .03 cents in my pokerstars account, well while chatting at http://www.btdpokerforum.com poker forum yesterday I was offered a stake from a fellow forum member. Not wanting to be too greedy, I just told him that ten bucks would be plenty and he transferred 10.00 to my acct. I quickly bought into a 3.30 45 seat SNG and went out way before the bubble.
I then waited a few hours and decided to try once more, here are the results.

Latest bankroll update!!!!

Ok, I gave in and redeposited Thursday after figuring out my finances.
I made an initial deposit of 50.00 at Pokerstars, transferred 15.00 to Jessie which left me with 35.00. I hopped into a 2.75 18 seater and bubbled. :-( But that is Poker for ya.
So tonight, I decided to play a 1.25 18 seater and here are the results of that game I got busy chatting with a player from the North Shore of Oahu, and went from first to last several times, but had a great game, even if I had to settle for third!!!

Better payout for less money which is always +EV in my book!!
I have a 5.25 private game tomorrow, but I'm not too sure I will play it because it is above my br.

Y'all have a wonderful weekend, I start college again Monday 05-12-08 so if you dont hear from me too often that is why.

I am still working on my MTT skills, but I think this was a pretty good two days for me!

Well I am just hoping I can get my damn Visa All Access to hook up with my bank account soon so I can deposit more money to play with soon, so if I don't post much in the next three or four days, I am still here just not playing a whole lot.

I am also trying a new card room out also www.reeferpoker.com. And I would love to have a poster of Evalina to hang on my wall as well!!!

I love Cardschat and the great members there!!!

So I got up today and met with my PSR worker which stands for Psycho-Social Rehabilitation, and we got on the subject of keeping a diary or (journal), whichever you prefer. Well he asked me what I do to keep my head on straight and I told him about my blog, so I came in to find the URL for it. Of course I cant keep stuff like that in my head so I had to log in to Cardschat.com to get the address and I had a Private Message from Robwhufc, who is a respected member of the community and it says :
Hey
I saw on your blog that you emptied out on stars, so i've sent you $11.
Pace yourself!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I could have fallen over dead when I read this because I was wondering if I could afford to have my dog shaved and still have any money to play at stars this week!!
Rob, I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for this and as soon as I rebuild some br I will definitely send that (plus some of my winnings) back to show my appreciation.
That is why I love the community at www.cardschat.com because they are some of the nicest people that I have ever met!!!

Thats it for today folks, if there is anything that you would like me to focus on specifically, then feel free to reply to my blog.
