Default Gee I\'m dumb...

So I have a "tiny" problem with never paying attention during a SNG.

And so I'm doing continous 8 tabling of the $33s, and after about two hours most of my SNGs are in different levels, so I move all the short handed ones to 1 monitor.

So I'm looking at my bottom left game, and the cards are being delt but I'm not getting any cards?!? So I start panicing thinking that I need to log off and log back or or something, until I realize that I'm playing the exact same SNG on the top left corner.... wait.... huh?

So I look at little closer and realize that I must have joined 1 tourney on Empire after I busted, and then tried to register for the same tourney on Eurobet, and when that didn't work I didn't bother to close the window, so I watched myself play the entire time and didn't notice until like 30+ minutes into it.

I occasionally look at one window and go "Ah *@#$, I'm out, and the match is over."

And then I see I got 1st. It's not as rewarding when you don't even realized it happened. Now THAT is what not being results oriented is all about! ???

Didn't you use to like billion table the party $25NL, how can you not keep track of 8 measily tables? jeez.

It occurs to me you must have some tool to auto check the little payment check box (and maybe even pick a seat for you) or something if you had this problem.

I once turned off the laptop while 1 table was in bubble because I thought it was the volume button.

Dumbest thing though was I was playing 2 SNG and 2 $100NL games, I made an all-in call at the $100NL game because I thought it was a SNG. It was a 6 max table too, wtf.

You lost about $5 for that mistake.

No more 55s?
