Variance sucks.
I could not buy a hand on Sunday if I tried. It was unreal how bad things went. I’m not even sure if I played bad or not, but I didn’t go on tilt, at least not overtly. I’m sure there was some tilt that snuck in, but I didn’t go maniac or anything. I know I didn’t get many good cards, but even so…
To make matters worse, I played in 3 SNGs and didn’t cash in any. The highlight was when I had my aces cracked by an all in A5o. That was fun. I did, however, play a pair of aces in another SNG beautifully I think, but even so I still busted. It was basically a bad day all around poker wise.
One thing I do know about playing in SNGs is that I really need to time them better. What I mean by that is that I need to make sure I’m not going to be disturbed while playing them. All too often I think I’ll have some time, start up a SNG and then my son will come upstairs. I’ve tried to make a point that poker doesn’t interfere with family time, so if he comes up to watch TV with the family, I quit playing poker. The problem is in a SNG, you can’t really just leave. Therefore I am going to have to wait to play SNGs until about 10pm at least.
The only upside I see is that TGC got their bonus stuff figured out and I cleared another $20 and am just a few points away from another $20 (it goes twice as fast at 1/2 as compared to 50/1).
On a happier (or scarier depending on how you look at it) note, my son turns 16 today. Yikes. 
You’re losing money in the OIC just to let me catch up I know it! I plan to turn my $.52 into $2,000 by tomorrow.
