Busy Times

Well, I have not updated this in about 10 day, it is mainly due to work and family things, I have been kind of busy. We had a huge blizzard here on the east coast and along with Valentines day, I have had to schedule alot of things around. I guess it does not really matter, as I do not think anyone reads this anyway. :-)

Well I got into playing on Monday night in my live home game. There were only 7 starters and it was pretty east to get the top 2 spots, when we split $400 each.
I have played one tournament which was a speed tourny on stars and as most tournaments, I keep placing in the 20ths and just cant seem to make the final table.
Blinds were huge 15K/30K and it was folded around to me in mid position. I have K2s and I decide now is the time to move, so I push for 74K. The SB with 130K decided to call with QJo and spikes a Jack on the flop..gg me.

I have also been playing my usual $5/$10 Limit. Things have been doing pretty well on that front as I have won 7 of the last 8 session. At this limit, I am winning 56% of my sessions, but some of the swings have been rough. I have been playing this limit since October 2005 and have only reached 1/2 of my goal at this limit. I am up around 130BB, but I want to be up at least 300 BB before I jump to the next level, which doubles on party, $10/$20. Needless to say it has been a grind after 5 months and almost 13K hands. I do have enough of a bankroll to play the bigger games, but I want to do it the right way in grinding it out and also getting more experience before playing with the sharks at the next level.

Till next time....
