Halfway through my 250 game Rio sit n go challenge the euphoria of an
early consolation win has drifted into a disappointing decline. I am struggling
to beat the high rake in this game right now. I could argue that things have not
gone my way in key pots, that I have been unlucky in this spot and that and
mention numerous outrageous turn of events. What I will do instead is recall the
three I hit on the river to help me win the consolation bonus worth $300. I am
running good in poker (and more importantly in life). I need to get back to
really enjoying these games, focusing on my play and not the short term
financial outcome. My results so far breakdown like this:
Though my split of positions looks reasonable I am suffering from a
distinct lack of wins. In 125 games an average number of wins would be 21.
Ironically turning three extra non cashing games into wins is all I am short of
to stay on the right side of the line. Three wins is $180. Whilst I am still in
a profitable position taking account of all factors below I need to bounce back
big style to hit my target of $800. One big help could be the freerolls which
have contributed a pitiful $2 so far. I will probably play in ten decent
freerolls before the end of next month and would hope to hit one or two decent
results.
| To Date | Target | |
| Direct Profit | -178 | 150 |
| Rakeback | 96 | 200 |
| Freeroll Wins | 2 | 150 |
| Consolation | 300 | 300 |
| Total | 220 | 800 |
Time to fight for those inches.
