Had some free time at work so figured I’d make a post. First of all I would like to thank Valuelol, Palinca, and fastcolt for making a donation to the fund I set up for my sick cousin who has cancer. It’s really appreciated and it will definitely help. If anyone else would like to contribute you can donate through this website http://lpcollins.chipin.com/bradley-oram-fund or you can send to me on a poker site. Newff on Full Tilt and LPC3000 on Pokerstars.
As for poker I played mostly MTT’s on my days off and had good runs in a lot of them but unfortunately got screwed when deep or made some marginal mistakes in which I didn’t bink…the one that hurt the most was when I think I busted out in 37th with AA vs. KK All in preflop and the guy rivered a King. If I won this pot I would have been maybe chipleader or at least in the top 3 with 36 players left and 1st place was around $140,000 
instead I cashed for like $200. I also cashed in a lot of the ones I played and as some of you know last week I got 2nd in Midnight Madness for $3,288 which was nice. I’m having some fun playing these now because the HUSNG grind even though I was never putting in a ton of volume was getting uninteresting and I have been finding it hard to motivate myself to grind HUSNG also because I have been losing over my last 1500 games or so. I think for the next month or so I am going to play a micture of HUSNG, MTT, and some cash games just so I can make poker more fun for a while and hopefully profit while doing so. FTOPS is coming up again so I will probably play a couple of those events and also in May the SCOOP Series will be running on Pokerstars and I plan to play about 12 of those events..mostly the low-medium buyin levels and the total buyins will cost about $600 so hopefully I don’t brick every one of them. My goal now is to get my motivation and focus back because a lot of my results is my own fault for not staying sharp..I think I am going to be buying Jared Tendlers new book on the mental game when it comes out and also but Tommy Angelos book called “Elements Of Poker”.
The past few days I’ve been feeling like I want to go back to Las Vegas for another trip but I’m going to put that off until WSOP. I won’t be playing any of the WSOP events but I will probably play one of the events in the Deepstack Extravaganza at The Venetian and spend the rest of my time grinding cash games. I think it will be June 15th that I’m going and will go for 7 days.
