That's how much I have left in my Poker Stars account at this particular moment in time.
I was down to four bucks, and decided to play the ring games. Sat in at the .05/.10 games and within a few hours was back up to forty bucks! Could it be? Could I have found my niche? Short handed ring games were perfect! I could be aggressive when called for, and the little newbie fishes at the level had deep pockets. Oh joy, oh bliss......my losing streak is OVER, I thought to myself!
Went to bed with over $60 in my account, completely chuffed with myself. Woke up on Sunday, and decided to try out some tournaments...and donked away $40 in entry fees.
OK, screw that, back to the ring games, but I'll try the short handed .10/.25....coz hey, if I can win 60 bucks in a few hours at the lower tables, I'll be able to make WAY more on the 10/25 tables, right? Yippeee skipeeeee.......here I go....
And the full pantheon of poker gods and goddesses took that particular moment to slap me down. To forty-seven cents.
And the lesson for today is: Pride goeth before a fall.
