So Close And Yet So Far!

My MTT's aren't going so well at the minute and I really don't think it's my fault, I am just getting a touch unlucky. I get beaten by worse hands to bust, or someone will flip over a bigger full house than my full house. That kind of thing.

I will look into a few more articles on late stage MTT play, but I've read quite a lot and I'm pretty sure I am doing the right things at the right times.
Even on the short stack I defend my blinds against the big stacks, which is usually where I make my stack from small to large (if I am short stacked obviously).
And after a great day at the cash tables yesterday my bankroll has seen a significant jump. I think my calculations are slightly off (about 30c) but I aint going all the way back through to find it, the bankroll total comes from my full tilt cashier tab, so that's the actual figure at the end of each post. And as it's only 30c difference, I ain't chasing it, I am no bloody accountant!

I am getting later and later in my MTT's though so perhaps a decent cash is due, just before I started this blog I actually cashed in 3 final tables in one day, all small tournies, but still. Then I went on my downswing, and lost the majority of it.
But this time round, I have my brain focused, my mind set, and my disipline in check. I'll be showing four figure sums soon I hope.
Plus, my rakeback must be due soon... Wonder how much that will be.... I will add straight to bankroll anyway, and it will be slightly less than it should be, because my deposit fees get taken from my rakeback.... I get 27% and poker tracker says that this week I have paid $25 in my cash games. So should be about $5 and this will increase as I go through the limits.

My sleeping patterns are getting messed up just now though, I am on US times as FT is a American based poker room. I am still looking for work at the minute after having to move 600miles from my previous job. I wish I hadn't made the move now. Trying to find work is so hard. I've applied for well over 60 jobs in the last 3 -4 weeks and not even been offered an interview. Lets just hope if a job doesn't come along a big win at poker will help see me through the bad times. I aint holding my breath to be honest but it's a possibility.
