So since I opened my FTP account I've been running quite well. I've cleared half of the deposit bonus ($600 is the full bonus) and after I clear the rest of it I'll be getting some proper rakeback. Haven't played as much as I'd have liked to in the past few days but I'm still averaging more than 15 sngs per day. If I keep that going for my first month I'll be happy enough. That reminds me, I must set out some goals. I'll have a think about it later.
Meanwhile I'll keep on re-reading Colin Moshman's book and try and learn a few things. Will post a graph or two later but the number of tournaments I've played makes it seem kind of pointless at this stage.
Update: Having trouble getting the hand summaries from my first few games (it's screwing up my graphs and not giving me my true ROI). When I get this all sorted the images will come. Played 14 games last night and made an overall loss of $10 for just over two hours play ($30 loss + $20 bonus released). Lost count of the number of times I ran in to bullets but it didn't really bother me as I've been running well and I just get on with it. A couple of years ago I'd be fuming..using the text box etc..I don't bother with any of that any more. Just not worth it.
What's bothering me is my style of play when I get ITM. I need to be winning more tournies and not just settling for second or third place. Last night was something like 5 third place finishes. Oh and one ridiculous bubble finish when I was joint chip leader. Stupidily got involved against KQ when I had trips. Guy had the straight...embarrassing stuff altogether.
Opening Balance: $1500
Current Balance: $3100
