Default Re: I\'m not sure what this means

ya got me thinking David, so I checked my spreadsheet.

I have played 243 MTT tourneys so far this year for a total investment of 7437 dollars. These range from $0 dollars (freerolls) to the $500 tourneys on Pokerstars as well as the satellites for those events. This is not counting SnG's, however.

I have cashed in 37 of them - for about 15% - but my total return for the yr. is only $1519 - a very small profit overall.

furthermore, I've only cashed over $500 three times this year. I can probably blame the following factors.

1. moving up too quickly - as soon as I made a big win, I counted two tourneys I played afterwards I wasn't ready to play - (

2. - I sorta sucked in my aggressive play once I got into the money - three times I placed 40th in party events with over 1000 players, and almost always got forced to make a move at the same point in the tourney, which was a drag....

3. - too much booze. - that's been on the outs now for almost a month...so we'll see

suffice it to say, without the big wins, I'd have no profit....

that's the key - final tables - best of luck to both of us trying to make it this yr.
