Decemeber to remember...

Yes, I'm still alive and playing. I've been slacking on the updates but this by far is my best month to date.  As you know I went thru 2-3 months of straight hell with my downswing and binking the little micro was what got this heater started.  chrisp200 and KULP were over throughout decemeber in the 'grind room' and we pulled in some serious cash. KULP had a breakout month too, having an epic sunday. Final tabling 33KO and the 15k Superstack, which he shippped for $7.5k. weeeeeee. then followed it up with a final table and 2nd place in the daily $40k on stars. sicko?  chrisp on a bit of a downswing but keep at it. new year is coming and should be fun things for us in the near future.

I guess that brings it to me and what I did this month. Five 4 figure scores and 1 out right win. I also had a shot for my first 5 figgy score in the 42k gtd on ftp but ended up taking 3rd. I ended up with around $11-$12k profit!  It's finally nice to see all my hard work pay off. The countless hours of reviewing HH's, watching vids, browsing forums. Trying to find the anecdote to fix the downswing. had some nice run goot in there which was much needed.

















The cubed was pretty wicked. No real 'tough' spots that I ran in to. Played solid and shipped it. So this year I shipped the PS $10 cubed and FTP $10 cubed. woo woo.

On to this year...I never would have thought I would be where I am at right now a year ago. cliche' i know, but seriously. I had a shitty 9to5 job I hated and just started 'grinding' micro stakes MTTs and getting destroyed. In March it finally clicked and I was .000001% away from a potential $35k score only to be stabbed in the heart on the river.  Now looking at it in hindsight it might have been the best thing for me. Having that much money at that point in my career might have been detrimental. But after that close hit I hit my biggest cash to date and of the year. 1st in the $10 cubed for $5.3k.  Few months down the road I get fired from PLS and denied unemployment. I had no choice but to grind my money out while being backed still. I ended up getting unemployment a month or two later which put some lax on me but kept the grind up. I was interested to see the comparison of when I worked 40hrs a week and played on my time off vs full time playing. So I worked/played for 8 months and played full time for 4 months or so. Heres the breakdown...













Strange how that works? lol, gg PeeEllEss and ty :D
