Starting the year off well
After being on the road for the last week, I finally sat down last night to play my first poker session on 2008. I’ve been playing more MTTs recently than ever before, enjoying the fact that I can play numerous tourneys over a few hours. Between 5:30 and 7:30 I saw 5 tourneys that interested me, one NLHE rebuy, three PLO8s, and one PLO High. I wound up making 3 final tables in fields of around 200 players and winning one, plus a 4th and a 5th. The win was for around $1100 and the cashes totaled around $1800 for just a total buy-in of $116. So a good start to the year.
Brings me to an interesting thought of being fresh. I ran well in the tournaments (obviously), but also played very well. Multiple days off always seem to help my play. Are you guys the same way?

That’s interesting because I am the exact opposite. If I take a week or so off I feel rusty. If I play four or five days in a row, I feel like I play my best on the fourth and fifth days. I suppose the more I play, the more I think about my game and the more focused I am at the table. Congrats on the solid results to start the year!
