I played all kinds of MTT's today ranging from $1-$3 and only managed one ITM for a measly $5 or so. Down about $10 for the day.

Running my last $1 90 man as we speak. Chip leader with 12 left.

Of course I'm drunk off my ass at this point and don't have high hopes for a top 3, but if I can manage to get there at least I'll break even.

Lat two days lose 3 games win 1 to break even, big fun.

Anyone noticed a crazy increase in action tonight?? Lots of drunk halloweenies on the $1 PS sng's. Just realized tonight is the daylight savings time switch, so I'm going to play for another hour.

And AK only if there is lots of money in the pot and i'm the one shoving and think there is a good chance i'm not called.

OK. Both were at fairly early stages, here's the hands:

I'd raised in late position with a big ace earlier in the game then had to fold when one of the blinds called me and shoved a flop that missed me completely, since then the blinds have it a few times and I've got about 13BB left. My notes on both villains in this hand are neither are particularly good, we're really folding this?

No particular reads on villain this early so yeah, this is bad. I'm probably tilting after getting reamed on the bubble so many times

Just sorting out my results for the month, will put them in a separate post.

Alrighty, October results.

Ended up +$12.90 over 98 games. Almost half of that was from nine $1 STT turbos at the start of the month, the rest is $2 STT turbos.

Not a spectacular win rate. At this stage I actually make a lot more from $1 games than I do from the $2s - interesting that there's a big change in the standard of play and there's a lot of reasonable multitablers at the $2 level that just don't exist at $1.

On the upside I've been working on my multitabling and I think I'm pretty comfortable running four at a time now. Will try to iron out a few more kinks in the game, hopefully run at expectation and have a better November.
