Last post: SO...why didn't I try for the big tourneys?

Honestly,I did not feel like spending the money. Simple. I do not have the bankroll to play in tourneys like that and I did not want to play scared. Maybe some day,but not yet. Simple answer, as I have to play the levels I am comfortable at. $1-2 and $2-5 are levels I can deal with right now. Nothing great but what can you do? There is money to be made though at these levels. Remember Marty from an earlier post?

I thought that I played well in Vegas. Yes,I ran into some bad beats but that is poker. All in all though,I won when I had the best most of the time. Patience helps a great deal and,although I do bitch about going long periods without cards,I do believe that I am getting even more patient when I play,which although boring at times,sure does save you money and headache in the long run.
Low level poker can be taxing on the brain as well as the pocketbook,especially when you play against fools,but all in all....those fools will eventually pay for your dinner and your toys and trinkets,and,even though they will get you once in a while that is what you must remember.
I can hardly wait till I get to play with my friends again.
Will I play the same foolhardy game that I play when I play with those friends? Maybe?
Possibly?Probably?Who knows?
I play this game because I love it...win or lose. This is why I almost hate playing with friends,because I take it too lightly. ;>)
I do know what I can hold my own though when I apply myself,and that is what counts for me,because if you can win consistently in Vegas you can win anywhere.
This is my 6th trip down there and my 5th winning session. Now if I could just apply myself to the home games I participate in......hmmmmm......we shall see:>)

This blog is now officially over. Hope that you enjoyed it.
SEE YOU AT THE TABLES!!!
