After a brutal Sunday I was down nearly 50.00. I couldn't do anything right. It was time to throw in the towel and give up. I played 4.00 nl and 1.00 6 man's and kept getting owned. I tried 1.00 18 man's, same thing. I fell fast playing within my bankroll limits.
Tonight I wasn't going to play until after 9:00. I started with a single 1.00 6 man. I won it. I tried 2 more 6 man's 1 at a time and lost both of those. Then I tried an 18 man and couldn't even get started when I lost that. I decided to play a single 10.00 nl table. I covered my cards and played position and my opponents. I took notes on each of them. I ended up losing 2 half buy in's but had great reads on how they were playing so I uncovered my cards, added on a full buy in of 10.00, and played against them.
Less than an hour later I was up to 27.00 and if I would have kept playing think I could have doubled that in the next hour.
I didn't multi-table. I was able to figure out my opponents weaknesses and capitalize on them. Now I have notes on those players for the future. It was a good learning experience for me and a confidence booster.
I am down for the week but not nearly as bad as I was. I started the week with 158.00 and now I am at 136.67. Rakeback from yesterday and Saturday helped too.
