My path back to Robustoville....

[En Passant]

I play under the handle “Dirk DiggIer” on FT. I typically 12 table NL 100 and would say that I am a solid player. I ran my account up to around $9k and then decided it was finally time to play NL200. Well, a combination of running bad and just getting brutally raped caused my account to decease to $6k, then $5k, then $4k. Today I was motivated to play again. After taking some bad beats right away, I decided to play some NL 600 HU. I don’t know why I would ever play HU because I am way too passive for it. I guess I was just upset at losing so much money that I tried making it up as quickly as possible. After bad play, my account was down to $2500. I was so mad at myself for playing in these games that I made a post asking for a 2k flip. After getting no participants, I sat at a 6 max 25 50 table with the great FT pro, Ben Roberts! Everyone at the table was pretty nitty, so I was able to pick up some pots and work the account back up to $4k. I had raised five strait hands up to this point, and then was dealt AQs UTG.
