Trials and Tribulations of an Internet Grinder

My last update was about 10 days ago and since then not much exciting has happened in the way of poker. I'm proud to say that I did spend time with my family and friends over the Thanksgiving weekend and it was a much needed break from the daily grind I had been getting accustomed to. So for last week, ending friday, I only played a mere 102 $55's and ended up in the red, to the tune of $430. I ran into soem bad luck, however, I can blame about 5 SnG exits on my poor play as I caught myself making a few impatient and reckless moves last week.

I am happy to report that this week is already starting off great. After only 26 $55's i am up over $600 so hopefully this will be one of those +1200 weeks to make up for last weeks poor results. I managed to play a couple +$100 MTT's this weekend but barely made the money in both, so nothing too exciting.

In other news, Full Tilt aired a Invational SnG live from Monaco on Thanksgiving. It was great beacuse they showed virtually every hand and it was interesting to see how the top pros play a fast blind structure SnG.

Also this weekend Party Poker released a new Beta version of their client which carries a new window resizing feature. This is great for a multitabler like myself, who does not have two 20" LCD's like all the big guns. I can now fit six poker games on my 17" Lcd and use my second monitor for more tables or work. Well, thats all for now, hope everyone had a grand holiday weekend. back to grinding for me. Holler.
