Today started great but ended terribly. I may stop playing the $3's and call it quits for the competition. I will decide once I see the leaderboard tonight. I know a couple of the guys are well over 1000 games with some very good profit and I think today may have sealed my fate. I've played around 575 games for the competition so far and am up around $150. I am ready to take another shot at the $6/45 but don't want to throw in the towel unless I am completely out of it. Here is my graph from today.

Finished
Done for the day. Bad day. Sick sick stuff. Very frustrating. I ran so bad on final tables.
December so far:
A Morning Update
Hi, Good Morning. I have been updating this blog in the evening after my day is over but today is a new day and I'm switching it up. Only 24 games yesterday lol. This is pathetic and sad. I am quickly falling very behind in the competition which which is full of high volume regs. It's 10:45 AM here right now so I'm looking at a 11 AM start time today. I will make another post after I finish playing for the day because I plan on playing 200+ 45's starting in 10 minutes. Here is a YouTube video I watch often before my sessions to get pumped up haha. It was posted by a regular in the mttc Official Sunday Thread one week a few months ago. Thanks whoever posted it I can't remember. Talk to you all later. Enjoy.

Busy Sunday
I managed to play 88 games on Sunday which I was very disappointed with. The plan was to play well over 100 with my morning and evening sessions. The morning session went pretty well despite a kinda late start. The evening session was shot due to a last minute decision to go to the movies with my cousins who are in town right now. I did play a small set of 20 or so games before the movies and despite a good start everything went to hell on my final tables and I managed to lose most of my winnings from the morning session for a break-even day.
Today I went out again with family, this time for breakfast. As soon as I got home from breakfast I started in on the grind. Today I'm at 88 games again but plan on playing many more tonight. One of the entrants in the 45 man comp, tsl583, has a screw lose and decided to put in a 22 hr session(800+ games) and did very nicely profit wise. Lucky for me and everyone else in my bracket he can't play for the next couple days so we have a chance instead of just playing for second. That grind ability is very impressive. I need to upgrade my computer badly because it hinders my ability to play more tables. Once I get up more than 20 tables it begins to lag to the point where im timing down on my tables too much, especially with HEM. With a fast computer I would be able to play 30 tables no issue.
Here is my graph for the last 200 games, I've played 176 since since the comp started.

Quick Update
I played 55 games this morning and things went well. I couldn't play more because I had family over for the afternoon. The 45 comp just started 1 hour ago and I am currently on break in the games. I didn't play nearly as many games as I wanted to today so I am trying to get a headstart on tomorrow(Sunday) by playing now. I have tomorrow off from work but have another family engagement to attend in the afternoon. This won't stop me from playing in the morning and late evening though. See you at the tables.

No Games
I didn't play at all today. I got a late start to the day and my first order of business after I did get going was to get to Best Buy. I drove there quickly and purchased an X-Box Controller. When I got back to the house I tried to set it up as quickly as possible so I could get some games in before work. This did not happen as I fail at computers. I did not purchase the USB Receiver necessary to hook up the controller properly. The sad part is it took me a couple hours to figure this out while trying frantically to get it to work before I get to work. It's all good, it didn't happen, oh well. I have tomorrow off thankfully and plan on playing 200 45's so I better get some rest. Peace Y'all.
