A fine day at the tables, all things considered - a +$57 result. I didn't have the kind of 1st/2nd distribution I'd like (3/6), but I'll certainly take cashing in half of the 18 tournaments played. I'm going to cut it short early today for two reasons. For one thing, I'm a little mentally bushed from working my ass off this week at my job, and for another, I'm starting to notice a little mild fatigue in my wrist which I can only hope is not the beginnings of carpal/tunnel syndrome. It's a good thing that I can play out the string this year without exerting too much effort.
Notes about the current upswing:
* In my last 686 tourneys, I'm now at a ROI of 7.63% (not including bonuses) with an average buyin over $10. It's obviously a relatively small sample size, but it's very encouraging. It will be interesting to see where this recent ROI is at when I play 314 more tourneys (probably by year's end).
* I have abandoned playing continuously. I never mentioned it on the blog, but as soon as I started firing at the RED HOLE, I needed to start playing in sets again to make sure I managed my bankroll appropriately. I find that I just play better in sets, overall. I'm going to stick with that for now.
* I'm only currently down at one limit, -$83 at $13s. Essentially, it's a negative two thirds of a percent ROI over 900+ tourneys there - pretty much break even. Again, encouraging.
I should be able to play a full cache tomorrow.
One final note: Including rewards, I'm within $100 of overall breakeven for online poker this year (remember, I donked off about $600 in cash... so breakeven for me is actually $1300.)
