Monkey is now OFF my back!

It's been a couple of days since I posted, mainly because of I really haven't played much, but here is a quick recap of my last few days. It all started Monday when I logged into Full Tilt to play the Weekly Change-up, hosted by Poker Nuts In Canada. Although there were only 3 players this time out, I had a horrible run of cards, well good for most poker games just not razz lol, and got knocked out fairly quickly. I didn't really feel like giving up on poker though, so I signed up for a $3.30 ko mtt. I had a great game, with cards falling my way fairly often, battling it all the way into the money. I ended up with $11.99 in winnings from the game, including 7 bounties, 1 being Jeff Madsen. I was happy to collect the money, and my step-daughter is extremely excited about HER new shirt lol, but felt bad for crashing in the last 2 hands. I then played a bit of Rush poker and built up another $4 of profit. That was it, I don't get lucky often, so off to bed I went feeling somewhat good lol.

Tuesday was an off day for me. I didn't feel like playing poker, or doing anything at all really. I just wasn't quite myself. However, at about supper time, a friend of mine gave me a heads up about a Canadian league tournament happening at 365Bonitas, that only cost a dime and offered the chance to win tickets to the regular league games that have money added. She was telling me that they needed 10 people for the game to happen and that she was afraid they would fall short. So I logged in to take a look and registered, figuring I could afford to lose a few cents to try and win a coupon worth $5.50 to a $100 added game. As it turned out I was smart to play it, because I ended up taking the win for the $5.50 coupon and my friend took 2nd to win the $2.20 coupon to the $30 added game. There's another one tonight at 9pm ET, so I'm going to take another shot at it, and try and win my way into another league game.

Then, to fully get up to date, there was last night. I had logged in to Full Tilt at 8pm to play the Poker Nuts In Canada weekly Wednesday game, "The Nuts' Happy Humpers", only to find out that it was canceled due to lack of participants. Since I was so hyped up to play the game I decided to look around and see if there was another game that looked interesting. Well I found a $2.20 6 handed MTT that looked interesting. I like 6 handed games and decided to give it a shot, while playing some rush poker on the side. Well, I went off on an absolutely incredible run and just knew that I was going really deep in this game. I didn't get discouraged the few times that I lost a big hand, figuring that I had planty of time to get the chips back, and come back they did. The run never ended and I took the tournament down for $172 and some change. I hadn't won a large tournament in a while, and it felt great to get the monkey off my back again. Now, to keep it going is the trick lol.

Good luck all, and maybe I'll see you on the felts tonight EH!
