Tournaments ar so [censored] gay.
Was in the FTOPS 6max 250k and doing pretty well.

Then I lose AQ&lt;QJ pf ai.
20k effective stacks, raise 67s, flop 38K, two spades, bb donks for pot, i shvoe, he instacalls K9, i miss.

Then blinds 3/6 w/ ante, minraise, call, i shove for 10k, minraiser folds, next guy calls w/ ATs, i have A5, gg.

Bust like 235th or something, paid at 175. I did bust Stuart Patterson though, so that was good.

[jrbick]

AAAAAAAAAAND again. w. t. f.






Should I just quit and take it back up in December? Maybe just play tournies for teh rest of the month?


I mean I want to dig in and do some serious hardassed grinding... but man it is difficult when every session goes like the ones I've posted in here. IMO THIS is the time that is going to make or break me as a poker player: playing through the shittiness.

Any advice?
