WOW

I seriously have never had a week in poker quite like this.

So everyone's now seen my big takedown in the Razz freeroll.  The very next Saturday, 
there's a forum Challenge Freeroll on Stars.  NLHE, great, been running bad in it.

But who cares?  I get myself psyched up, and ready to play.

Wound up making some incredible plays, and getting incredibly lucky too, and finished 
38th out of 2047 players.  Only scored for the tune of $8.75, but oh well.  Once again, I 
go incredibly deep in a big field.

But it doesn't stop there.

Tonight, I entered the $10+1 Razz tournament on Full Tilt.  61 players, and I'm VERY 
confident in this one.

Once again, played all different sized stacks well, and well, take a look for yourself:

 

That's right!  I scored for $200!  Biggest cash I've ever made in a tourney!

Oh yeah, I'm on fire.

Just when I was giving up faith in myself...

I have been having a shoddy time in Poker. I've been playing good, yet I've been seeing the pot go the opposite way. Seriously, I play the hand right, some dude gets lucky and takes the pot. Bubbling Sit-N-Go's, and just grinding my wheels in Multi Table Tourneys.

Every AJPoker tournament I enter, I can't do nothing, and when I do, it's never that long-awaited win I've been looking for.

So I took it down a step and starting playing some more Freerolls. No better way to beat variance. Maybe there is, but whatever.

All this week, I've played the HORSE Tournament on Bugsy's Club, which is one of the best structures ever. And I have done SO WELL in them. All except I get to the top 10% of the field, and bust before the money.

And yeah, the same thing happened tonight. So I join the Full Tilt No Limit Hold'em Freeroll (900 enter, 18) pay. On a break, I register for the Razz freeroll (Since Razz is my absolute best game period). I bust 47th in NLHE, and am grinding my wheels (again in Razz).

So once again, this leaves me with this last chance tonight.

And then, while still playing almost flawless, things start turning my way. Then, we get 8 away from the money (764 enter, 18 still pay). And once again, things turn sour.

I sit on my chips up until 4 left till the bubble, and then start making calculated steals and moves. And then the bubble bursts, and I come out swinging.

And it starts working. Then I falter, but I pick myself right back up.

And then I'm at the final table. And well, this image will speak for itself (once again, click the image below for the bigger image):



I WON! I WON THE WHOLE THING! Unbelievable! I have NEVER done this well in 300+ fields. Now, I have done it. And now, finally, I know I can do it. This is a huge burden off my shoulders.

That was 5 hours of grueling poker well worth it (even if the cash was small).
