April accomplishments

I'm not exactly satisfied with my month of April, but I think did farely well, esp towards the end.

4/30 : UB $22 94 entries, 1st for $535

4/27 : FTP $33 DS 117 entries, 1st for $948

4/22 : FTP $33 DS 126 entries, 3rd for $482

4/18 : STARS $16.50 360 entries, 6th for $243

4/20 : FTP $11 215 entries, 4th for $210

4/7 : FTP $33 DS 133 entries, 1st for $1,077

played a total of 82 mtt's. and got about 6 semi-worthy final tables. comes out to about 7% final tables. Total profit mtt's for april = +$1,650.

Could have been a lot better but omg I ran so bad on stars its retarded. had 4 cashes in $20/180's toward the end of my run there but couldnt ever close the deal and get a top 2 finish. made only one final table where I came in 9th after coming in to the FT 2/9. I lost 2 60/40's where I was ahead and made some sick calls vs resteals. then in the $16.50 where I came in 6th, I came in to the fT 1/9 and lost 2 coinflips in a row to send me to the rail. once with QQ lost AK and I cant remember the other one. Can I get lucky one time plz?

my stats @ pokerstars = -40 some odd percent ROI!!! that literally makes me sick to my stomach.

meanwhile on FTP, 321% ROI... something seems wrong with this picture.

With all that I had to ban myself from pokerstars for a week at least. My BR there is really hurting, barely even $400. Gonna have to start off playing the $11 180's until I hit a score there so I can start playing mtt's $22 and higher again.

I am also kind of dissapointed in the fact that I haven't final tabled a significant MTT with at least 400 entries for a nice big score, at least 3k+. It's nice to have these small mtt's around to help keep me afloat when I thought I was going to hit rock bottom, but what I really want is that huge score that could change my life. Something that will help get me to the next level of my poker career.

I do feel really good about my game though, and If I can keep plugging away and get a signifcant amount of mtt's in for May... I think I just may be able to come away with that score I've been looking for. I've plugged the biggest leaks anybody could ever find in there game, and its showed in these past couple of weeks.
