Last night, we went to Jon's family's house to celebrate passover. I am, by birth, American-Italian, and by relationship, American-Italian-Jewish. Thereofore, the year is not only filled with secular holidays, but multireligious as well. In any case, we had a wonderful dinner and dessert including delicious matzoh ball soup, green beans and potatoes and gourmet fruit salad. (If you hadn't guessed already from previous posts, I am a fish eating vegetarian that loves food).
We got home relatively late and my little baby, Jon, was/is sick. So he rested and I played $1/$2 NL. I profited approximately $100 on UB and $30 onFull Tilt. It was a good evening, and I feel my NL cash game improving tremendously. I decided to also play the $30 rebuy and only invest $60, and I lasted 15 minutes. If I wasn't so tired, I wouldve played it like a real rebuy and not limited myself to two buyins, but I think self discipline is one of the most important attributes to playing poker full time and if I do not set limits for myself, then my bankroll will gradually diminish instead of grow. Once I make a plan as to what I am going to do, I am determined to follow through with it.
My plan for this evening is to try and win a TEC for the 8p.m. and play cash and build my account. I might make another withdrawal tonight, we will see. My goal has been to withdraw a minimum of $150 per week, and I am right now, way over my goal (approximately $300 per week). The plan is to consistently increase the amount over time, and profitability.
I still strugggle on a daily basis with the concept of playing full time without having a job with benefits, but by the same token, I am excited and I anticipate the day it will happen (after the apt is sold), that I will be able to support myself and benefits by playing full time. Jon describes it as Freudian's inner egos theory battling with each other. My explanation is a bit more academic- I am a paranoid worried chic that makes overanalyzing her life to death three times a week a part time job.
I think that I have babbled enough for today...I will post results of my evening session tomorrow...
Good luck and peace,
Lucky C.
