It's been two full days I have not cashed in any tournaments and I'm officially on Full Tilt. Started the day off feeling good and focused and then the bad beats and unusual amount of coin-flip losses started rolling in and by the end of the day I was playing like a complete donk. At one point, it felt like every player at the table could see my hole cards and knew exactly when to raise my c-bets and fold to my traps when I had monsters. To be honest, I've never been so angry playing poker in my whole poker career. I literally wanted to punch my monitor or throw my laptop out the window. Oddly enough, I ran bad on all three sites today and didn't even cash in any Pstars and UB tournies. As a matter of fact, I only made money knocking out Josh Arieh in the FTOPS ME. Overall, my FT bankroll has took one of the biggest hits it's ever took this past week, my Pstars account isn't looking too good, and my UB account is decent. I can't blame all of my failures on luck but it's like a domino effect, I start to run really bad and it lures me into playing bad. I've already decided I was going to put in some hard work and study when I get back from Vegas, I think it is much needed. I'll be flying out early morning tomorrow straight to Vegas to play in some live tournaments at the Venetian, so it'll be a good change for me after grinding online everyday for the past month and a half. I'll be arriving at my hotel with enough time to grab a quick breakfast and play the Noon deepstack tournament for $330 buy-in. I'll be blogging about the results from that tomorrow and will do my best to keep everyone posted while on my trip. Wish me luck!
