February's MTT run

As I come towards the end of the month it is clear that I have had a good run on the MTTs which was capped off by the $750 win on Paradise. I also turned up for the AP $100k guaranteed, after winning the $200 seat in a freeroll, but never made the money; finishing 113th of 578 runners.

Now whilst I never felt I could win the tourny I never felt outplayed or out of my depth. There appeared to be a lot of dead money in the tourny (and I'm not including myself in that). If adequately bankrolled I would be comfortable playing at this level but as I am playing MTTs, SNGs & Cash tables I don't think it is time for me to focus on MTTs yet.

Disappointingly I have not yet made 'BPP' on Punters Lounge and with only a few days to go until I take a break from poker it is looking ever more challenging. I should have made the top spot earlier in the week but a change to the points structure for cash games was not in place when I won the cash game session. Under the new points system I would have been top!

Anyway, 2nd is almost good enough and I may have another run at BPP in the future if I run good in one of the focus games. Unlikey to play as many MTTs/month for a good few months though.

March is going to be a month of SNGs as I have about 100 to play to clear some bonus requirements for PokerSourceOnline. This will give me $180 of Amazon vouchers to play with and across FT & Titan works out at about $1.5/$2 back per SNG.

My target is that come the end of March I will be bankrolled to play the $20 SNGs. This should be close given that I have $182 profit from 81 SNGs ($2.25/SNG) and need a further $258 profit, which at current return, equates to a further 115 SNGs.
