Trials and Tribulations of an Internet Grinder

So far this has been a horrible year for my SnG progress. Through a combination of some horrible luck, some bad stress induced play, and lack of confidence I am currently struggling through a 38 buy-in downstreak. That streak is not the worst ever but it is over about 500 SnG's making it a horrible run at best. I am starting to look into getting a SnG coach through 2+2 and I will be paying that person about $75/hr to help me work on my game and get me back on track. The only thing I can do now is keep playing and hope that the cards even themsleves out VERY soon. Here are my stats, I almsot don't want to keep posting these poor updates but part of being a good poker player is good record keeping even if it is not good records.

Didnt play much over the last 3 days, took friday off and tried to study some hand histories. I am always hoping to find some huge mistakes when looking through them but I cannot seem to find any huge leaks. One thing I am trying to do is make better calls late instead of autofolding to all-ins. Well here are my ugly stats from the last 3 days, enjoy.

Well this 3 day stretch was better than the previous one so i can;t compain there. I still feel like I am not playing my best at all times and i really hope that my stats turn around in February. I don't have time to write much right now but I will make a full January results post by tommorow. Also for WPT fans the Borgota Winter Open finalt able is taking place today and boy is it stacked: Eric Lindigren, Michael "the grinder" Mizrachi, and John D'agnistino are threee of the six finalists, should make for some great TV.
