After donking off my bankroll, because that’s how I roll, I’ve started to build it up ever so slowly. I started with $3.79 and with my limited playing time, I’ve built it up to a tad over $15 by playing in a few $2+0.25 STT. Yes, it would be much easier to just plop in $100, but that’s taking the easy road and I do not learn from just depositing loot. Now I have to work for my bankroll. It’s amazing how much smarter I play when my bankroll is short stacked. A few of the STT’s that I played, when I got the chip lead, I took more risks while and saw more cheap flops and acted in the same random pattern if I had a hand or not. Hopefully I can take the same view when I build up the bankroll and not donk myself back down.
So tonight I’m playing the the highest buy in tournament that I’ve played in weeks, AIPS $5+0.50 Pot Limit Texas Hold’Em. My goal is to not go out first like the last tournament and make the top 20%. Even if I don’t finish in the loot, which would be very nice, if I make top 20% that would rule.
