Ugggggggh. After 7 and a half hours I placed 18th of 1900+ in one of yesterdays 15k guaranteed super stack tourns. Things were going so well... 18th is better than 190th though I guess right ? Sigh the big one is near *sniff* *sniff* I can smell it.

Ok so. I know I said I wasn't going to play super turbos anymore. But I think I've gotten better. I'm mainly just playing the super turbo step sngs. I'm going for that 12k package for 1st place in step 7. I figure i got a pretty good strategy. I like how the payout structures are even though fulltilt changed things a bit. Eliminating 7th place payout for step 2 making it a little harder to move up from step one. So I will be starting with step 2 now. I had been starting in step one. I'm doing pretty well I'm up $222 with an ROI of 9% in the steps.

Came so close to a big cash last night. Played in fulltilts midnight madness tourn last night and placed 34th 2286. I just know sooner or later I'm gonna get a big cash I've only played 18 Large tourns so far I have an ROI of 323% with a profit of $302. I've got a 5th place finish, one 18th, 160th (dont really count it but because i slipped in and didnt quite get my buy in back but I got a bonus of $25 becuase it was a double tourn and i placed in both) and a 34th place finish. All tourns have been over 1000+ players. This last one was 2286. I'm quite proud of my play so far.

Well, I have decided to stop playing super turbos. I'm not sure If i just had a really bad swing or whether i was more or less just tilting. But either way, now I have been playing sched. tourns mixed with multi-table sng's and sum single table. I had my first big cash on Fulltilt last week placing 5th out of 1149 in a $5 cashout tourn. Got $272 for 5th then i got paid out $90 for my chips.
