Crazy Week

Started off the week as like any other; destroyed from a weekend of partying. I open up my MacBook Pro and click on the see what degen is lucky enough to be playing 100/200. As of now, there are only tables half empty, with the degens skilled enough to make a living at this sick game.

I suddenly remember that I have $100 worth of rakeback from when I used to own HU on AP. I quickly go to my account and transfer that money to Full Tilt. I start off playing $10 because my BR was so insanely tiny, and I thought for once I would follow good BR management. I quickly realize that I am too much of a degen for that and double click on a $50NL HU table. A regular quickly joins...and I quickly own him, taking him for $200+. I soon move onto another table, now playing two. At this time it's about 9 pm, and I plan on playing a couple thousand hands and calling it a night. Being the degen I am, this obviously doesn't happen. By 9 am I have $500 on both tables, netting me a profit of $1k or 20 buy-ins. Come 10 o'clock I remember that I have a test and pick myself up and go to class to own my test almost as hard as I owned the reg the night before.

The next night is almost as sick. I join a 50NL HU table and begin to grind away. Before long I have $600 on the table. I quickly my friend Doug to brag on how much I own these regs. He quickly comes and watches, and within 30 minutes I get my stack up to $1k. After about 10 minutes of playing with $1k+ on the table I decide to give the regs a break and make my way to the UC to get some Blimpies. While I'm there I obviously see the black guy that sells that good stuff so I obviously buy 1/8th and proceed to go back to my room and fly like a birdie.

The next day I see that I now have a $2k bankroll, so I decide to take a shot at .50/1 and everything goes pretty good; the players are pretty bad and I quickly build my BR up to $2500. That night I'm not tired and decide to pull an all-nighter. It's an up and down night but by the end I manage to be up around $200. By the time I have to go to class, 11 am, I have played close to 6k hands.

I go to class and when I get back, I obviously hop back onto the tables, except this time a little different. Over the proceeding 7 hours I manage to go on tilt and lose 1k which leaves me with a BR of $1.5k. This brings me to today, trying to rebuild what I once had. I'm still playing .50/1, now with only 15 buy-ins instead of the standard 20. If my BR drops down to $1k then I'll move down to .25/.50 but until then I'm going to chill here.
