4th operation

I played for 90mins 4 tabling today and 15 minutes on Wednesday, but that was all I've played in the last 8 days (low confidence/desire). I had to send my laptop away so the wireless internet card can be replaced; in the meantime i get to practice my concentration and play fewer tables. This works out in a way, because when ur losing you might as well be playing fewer tables!

I went to the casino twice since i started downswinging online, and my results were considerably better. I played the 2-10/2-20 spread games since they generally don't offer NL cash games in Minnesota. I only go to the casino when I'm going with my friends.. it's fun to go with them because we smoke and hang out on the drive to/from. I don't think I've ever gone to a casino alone, because i only play poker when i go and it makes better sense to do that online.

here's the results: (after gas, food, beer expenses)
Saturday: +250
Monday: +210, +270 (won a NL tourney!)

casino donks + run good = domination

gotta play 7-8k hands of 50nl before the month ends, the bulk of which i'll probably be 4tabling without a HUD. If it gets to the 30th and I'm not real close, I will play 100nl to get Platinum. note this is setting up to be a similar situation as it was in January.. on the last day of that month i played 2k+ hands of 100nl and dropped 8 buy ins. what has changed is that I am a much stronger player now than i was then, and my roll is better padded.

that situation will be clearer in a few more days after I've done some more grinding online. I'm probably gonna go play some more live poker at the casino tonight. time to take a little nap!
