I'd like to start the topic off with my most recent achievement. Here it is...

I broke the $1000 in earnings barrier just yesterday!!.... Hooray For Me!

Another achievement: i dropped 4 buyins in my session this morning(after just moving to 25nl)...and although i wasn't feeling to good about it...i told myself to stay focused and to keep playing solid, and that if i could come away break even, i would be uber proud of myself.
3 hours later I finished the session up 1.5 buyins...it feels good.

Enough about me...Anything you guys have to share?

After a long breakeven stretch, this weekend I finished 2nd in a $12/180 turbo for $400, and was up 3 BIs at 100NL for another $300.

yay!

Yeah right!

softball milk-jug game is sooooo rigged. Beating it is like beating QQ with 43 on a QK8 board

br at alltime high for me at 1.3k after finishing 4th (for $365) in one of those $2.50 mtt's on stars (2600 people or so). Sounds small, but i'm so terrible at tourney's an ITM is a huge success for me, so woo hoo!!

Also switched (at least temporarily) to hu sng's this week and i've been fairly successful there so far too.
