No luck

Pooped out in all three tournaments... 34k, 568/1711... 21k KO, 651/1489, and 20k, 438/679. Never got anything going, pretty card dead in general. I'm not super happy with my patience level. Also, didn't get play on any cash tables. Maybe that was the problem, when I have cash games up, it helps me to not impatient.

Taking a break to do some HW, then will be back at 5pm or 6:30pm depending on how HW goes. Definitely going to hit up the cash tables this evening.. and planning on playing better.

***UPDATE***

Got pwned in 50k... didnt last more than 10 minutes. 28k, no luck. On fire in the 6max KO. Just finished 2nd break, and I have a big stack, hopefully I keep it going. Also pwned the cash tables earlier. Will give full update when I finish the 6max tourny.

***UPDATE***

55th in the 6max KO... things got tough, and wasn't hitting any hands for a while. Wasn't sitting too bad, but was at about half the avg stack when this happened...

I took the risky route and went for the tiny 3bet because I wasn't that deep, and definitely wanted action. He hit the yahtzee flop and the rest was history. I ran really really well in this tournament and definitely dealt my share of bad beats. However it was a tough day and thought I was rolling all my luck into one tournament. Unfortunately it didnt work out.

I don't feel like I played my best tournament poker this weekend, but my cash game play has been good + running well equals big profits. Played 720 hands this evening and won $243. Took some nice donations and won one big flip situation that I remember. I also won a 2500 ftp satelite to the 750k. I unregistered for the tournament and got 43,000 ftps credited to my account... ha! So I guess I'll be playing a ton of 1800 ftp sng satelites.

I have alot of schoolwork to do in the next few days, so will most likely just be playing cash games to get my ftps and that's it.
