Tourney Donkey

Multi's are tough. I've been playing about 20 multi's a day for the last four days and it's really exhausting. It's also really tough to final table the big events. I'm having some pretty moderate success making the top 50 - 20 but it seems like I have to catch a break or two to make the Final Table. I am up about 5k this week, mostly thanks to the 4th in the $11 re-buy, so it is looking fairly profitable. However, I also know that the strange thing about playing multi's is that most of your profit comes from the big scores. If you can break even on your tournaments where you don't make the final table, then you are doing fairly well. The big scores that you get from your wins are more than enough to pad your roll.

I also need a couple more deep finishes to bring some life back into my run at the weekly TLB on Stars. I think I have dropped to 21st right now due to others accumulating more points than I have in the last couple days.

I think I may go to Iowa this weekend to hang out with my friends Donny and Tony and catch the Iowa vs. Ohio St. game. Donny is maybe one of the funniest guys I know and it's always a blast to hang out with him. I just hope we don't end up at a bar with a pool table, I think I single handedly doubled Tony's bankroll with my pool losses this summer.

I'll probably take my camera so that I can get some pictures to liven up the blandness of this site.

Oh also, my good friend Mats Iremark just got his new website up. It's an exceptional design and when I actually get famous enough to justify building my own site, I'll want one like this. Check it out at
