Postive ROI & Profit--The End is Near


Oh what do we have here? Well, that must be some sic stats posted by none other than Frodaddy10. Finally after 2.5 years of grinding it out, the numbers prove I am not a four legged, hay eating, hee haw!
While this is vindication against all of those out there who have not respected me or my game, you must know there is a degree of personal satisfaction that I take from being a self-proclaimed internet retard, but still having been able to make a few bucks (like $5 according to the picture above). Now, the truth is that I earned several hundred from Party (please giggle about the fact that I call it earning money at Party when I actually broke even after dumping it on black jack--but earned at poker none-the-less) and have already cashed out for 3 $100.00 profit checks from Stars.
I think maybe I can playon this internet, but only in short periods. With my demanding wife and children, it is hard to find time to dedicate to a MTT, and honestly my attention wanes. I have also found myself doing poorly with regard to tilt. Not that I tilt off my remaining stack or play badly, but I just quit, and don't play for a few days. That is no way for a grinder to really approach the game. OK, where is the money at? The 6-max tables are definitely where I have found myself--I think I may even have to give up Omaha now.
With this house project looking like it is atleast headed in the direction of completion, I think late Fall and Winter will provide the opportunity for that big MTT score. Not "Tough Man" big, but just big enough to move me up the food chain to a higher level of SNG's and increase my earning potential to really put a dent in the Disney trip bill.
Looks like planning for the Moose Poker tournament is moving right along, and again the Title is up in the air, as yours truly will not be competing. Our boy Tough Man will be taking a shot in the Circuit event this month at Caesars, so best of luck in that endeavor. Yeah, I got a piece of him, and it really sucks for him that the new tax law requires the casino to slice 25% of any prize over $5000 out for the tax man before you leave the casino. I guess some of the "pros" haven't done so well at itemizing their winnings--and with poker considered a game of chance--it shall be taxed and taxed some more!
And, if you are wondering, I am still pissed at the bald prick who asked to see my hand at "Ass"tar the other night. I wonder if there is any possible way that guy got hit by a bus walking out of the casino? But, I guess the police would have already questioned me if that was the case!
