October 2008 Recap

10/8/08
3/27 ITM played well.
1/45 ITM played well and things went my way.
35/395 ITM for peanuts, but a straight flush helped me get there. ultimately QQ < AA to cripple me and JJ < 9Ts to finish me. multi-table tourneys don't really fit my life-style. i think they're for the younger guys who don't need sleep and don't have commitments. why should i play for 4 hours to earn a free trip to WaWa? just not worth it.
multi-tabling did me in on a rebuy though where i was deep but made a bad call all-in while concentrating on the above tourneys. it was a little-known site and i was suprised to see sheets & johnnybax playing.

2/111 ITM. small buy-in so not much of a brag. a long heads up battle ended with me getting it in with 44 up against A2o. flop 39J turn 4 (a set and i'm good!) but river 5 sends me to the rail.

basically september and so far october are cold-deck months. i'm losing nearly all my races, my AK < A7 time after time, and river beats are "beating" me down.
