No More SNGs for me!

Finally learned my lesson last night. I have put on hold playing in any more SNGs, at least until my bankroll is really healthy. Played nothing but live games last night. Only had an hour to play, being I wanted to watch the new season of High Stakes Poker on GSN. That and the fact that I had to do some long overdue yard work, being we are having company this week. So in an hour I won 6 BBs playing limit holdem and 3 playing stud. May not seam like a lot but over time this will really build up my bankroll. Saw some really crazy play on my limit HE table. I have learned to call down these donks with second pair no kicker when a late position player raises. People at this table would bet with nothing but air all the way to the river. I am talking pre-flop, on the flop, turn, and river. Even though there were no draws out there this guy bets the river with 4-5 of diamonds. I had to be calling with something in this spot. I won a few hands in this manner. Problem is I took some really bad beats, which took away much of my profit. It was like two step forward and one step back, over and over again. Will keep grinding away this week. As for live poker looks like AC this weekend baby. Borgata Saturday tournament is a good possibility. Also live $10-20 should be juicy, it always is on holiday weekends. Just need to get my seat belt ready for a very bumpy ride. These holiday weekends bring out an assortment of drunks, maniacs, and sharks. May also make a trip over to the Taj, to check out the action. Good luck at the tables. Tony
