Here is the damage since Feb 1st, Keep in mind that on Sundays the tourneys have bigger fields and the stakes are higher so a good chunk of this damage is from Sundays. Red Line is overall (click to see it)
I have been studying more than ever to try to break the trend. I have actually have had more chances at great scores than ever while going through this downswing but you cant win money when you fail to get top 3's in tourneys. I do sell a good chunk of my action so its not like I lost 25k or anything. I also play cash games and SNGs and do well in those formats.
I think I am going to keep playing the tourneys as long as my investors continue to have confidence in me. I definitely think I give them a fair price but I have just ran horrendous and unfortunately I have lost a good chunk of their money(and my own!). I think many of them have watched me play enough and have seen so many of the coolers and beats for tons of equity that they still think I am a good investment( and I agree). I am hoping to sell some action for some WSOP events and have also decided that I want to play the main event as well, so hopefully this downswing doesnt affect Investors who buy Live action. It definaetly won't help for the ones who rely primarly on online MTT stats when making their decision :( . Hopefully it won't be an issue anyway after this heater I am going to catch soon.
I have decided to make it a point to reach Supernova on Stars and possibly go for 200k VPPs this year. Stars is the best site imo and I would love the opportunity to represent them someday. First, I got to give them reason to want me to represent them lol. I will probably just mass table SNGs in order to reach my VPP goal but who knows. If I knew being Supernova Elite would lead to some sort of sponsorship I would probably do that.
My little boy is doing great. He makes me so happy no matter what happens in poker.
Anyway I sick of writing, Until next time...
MAY THE BOOMSWITCH COMMENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi...I follow you online from time to time. I wrote you a couple of years ago (maybe?). It's nice to see people who are local to myself play well and play online for a living. It seems that tournament poker (and cash games) online have become extremely competitive in the past 3 years since I've been playing. A buddy of mine (who's also local) seems to think the same thing. He started playing online back in 06 and did very well. But sees where his profits have decreased in the past couple of years as well. I guess it's just how poker is evolving: everybody is becoming better. However, I think there are still enough fish in the tank. But it sure would be nice to have a few more. Anyways...good luck to ya...
