Basically my plan for the next 24 hours is to go to AC with the $300 that i have on me and make another 100 to cover the tournament which will be on Tuesday morning. Event #1 $350+50 deepstacked of the Borgata Winter Open. 3 day event. I'm expecting like 300 to 500 people to show up but I wouldn't be surprised if it hit more.
Expenses, I should have a room comped by Hilton or Taj from an offer I got in the mail. If that somehow doesn't happen then i'll have to make an extra $60ish to cover a room. (x2 if staying for another night if all goes well in the tourny, btw it is a 3 day event.)
This is the first time i'm really taking a shot like this in a tourny. There's a decent chance i'll be back home and broke before it feels like I even left, but that's just part of the risk. The other risk is the tangible $300 that i'd be playing with which if I were to lose would leave me with no more money which means no more ammo. I've luckily been avoiding this situation for a while but I guess its somehow once again caught up with me.....funny how that works i guess. I do feel extremely confident but obviously i'm gonna have to be fortunate and have luck work with me and not against.
I'm not going into the tournament with any plan although it should be interesting to see how I do considering i've never done a multiple day event before. (25k starting chips and 45 minute levels.)
So I guess that's all there is to mention really, gl.

+2k Upswing
Finally been starting to book some solid wins over the last couple sessions. I think i'm like 5/6 and things are starting to look promising. I paid back Eng 1k and paid off my credit card bill so there's a little bit less pressure now. Starting with my next session i'm gonna record everything. I'm also looking foward to playing 2/5 as much as possible. That game is very much beatable but i'm not gonna sit down until i have atleast $1200-$1500 to work with. Bloomfield is still running a pretty good game so i'm gonna stick with that as well. I think its very possible for me to expect a solid annual salary of anywhere between 35k to as much as 100k. Of course it's too soon to tell but in a few months i'll definitely have a better idea, this is just my guess for now. As long as I continue to just play solid poker and not steam at the table then there shouldn't be anything that can stop me.
