Tourneys

I have rediscovered today the joy and quick profit of tourneys. Today I made and lost over 2k. I played in a couple tourneys costing $220 & $315 each. Those didn't work out so well.....BUT the good news is I was able to make all that up and more. I dropped down to $540ish and after winning 2 $50 single table tourneys, 2nd in a $20 ST S&G, and 1st in a $50 buy-in 50+ player tourney paying over $915. Whew, what a crazy day. All in all, I made $ and played well, so it was a great day. I do need to work on controlling my poker emotions during the big $ tourneys. I recovered, and ended up winning quite a few 50/50's towards the end of the day.

Ending Bankroll: $1730.00
