well its been a long time since my last post, but then its been a long time since I played real poker. I took an extra course last semester and Uni work and life just got too much for me around christmas to the point where, after a long day of thinking I just couldnt be bothered to come home to a hobby that requres so much thinking. Poker above live 2NL stopped being fun so I just stopped playing.

Lately the old urges have been comming back so Ive decided to give it another whack. Ive cashed out a sizeable chunk of my roll and lost about $500 or so more which leaves me with around 2.5k to get going with. Im starting to feel like my instincts and perhaps more importantly my discipline are comming back.

Ive played for the past week, losing horribly for the first few days due to playing like shit.
I won a little for the next couple of days by bad beating 1 person and calling an allin with middle set when a full stack pushed over my flop raises with AQo on a Kxx flop.

Last night is the first time Ive felt I actually played good poker since the break, but I feel like I can carry it on if I can keep my discipline. I originally said I was going to be playing 50NL for a while, but at Crypto the game selection there is so much worse than at 100NL that it probably isnt worth it so im going to stick at 100NL for a little longer yet. Ill definatly be moving down if I dip below 2K though.

Ive got myself a nice shiny operation banner to keep track of my progress and hopefully Ill make it to 4K over the next month or 2.

Wish me luck FTR
