Week One: Complete

Well, this week has actually ended up being not too shabby. Here's the results.

Empire: $390.20
I only had one sessions of 4 tabling 1/2 limit, oddly enough. Normally I have more, but this week apparently did not give me time, or something. Contrary to many people's beliefs, there is a life outside of poker. -gasp-
PokerStars: $42.50
T$550.00

On Stars, I played the $30+3 Deep Stacks tournament (For those of you who are ignorant as far as these go - they are GREAT ;-) ). They have 30 minute levels, and T5000 starting chips. Didn't place in this, but decided to play the 11+Rebuy that night at 10:15. Ended up taking 174th when my QQ ran into KK for my 5x the BB. Oh well...180 paid, but I didn't want to make ITM. I wanted some cash. It paid $54.20 or something, and I was only in it for $31.
Those have been the only two non-satellites I've played on stars. As far as satellites go -
$3 Rebuy - Net: -15
$11 Rebuy+Turbo - Net: +185
$3 Rebuy - Net: -9
$36+3 - Net: -39
$11 Rebuy+Turbo - Net: -31
$11 Rebuy+Turbo - Net: -51
$11 Rebuy+Turbo - Net: +185
$11 Rebuy+Turbo - Net: -31
$11 Rebuy+Turbo - Net: +165

Other than poker, life is going great. Still looking for a part time job, but that will come around. Just gotta keep looking and I'll find something.

Restarting

After cashing out the majority of what I have for personal reasons, I have restarted this past week. Here's the bankroll. I would like to thank 1001001 for the faith and staking to restart me on PokerStars.

PokerStars - T$215
Empire Poker - $330

On pokerstars, I am going to be satelliting constantly and attempt to start to play decent sized MTTs. Empire, I have started (with rakeback) to 4 table limit, beginning at 1/2 shorthanded.

My goal is T$1000 on PS by November 2nd, and $750 on Empire.

And so it begins...
