Upcoming Poker - Bankroll Decision

Well last night's SnG's did not go as well as I had hoped. I was unlucky a few times and after I played five I knew it was not my night as far as luck goes. However, I was playing good poker. Therefore I delved into a 5.25 heads up match so as to play a slow game seeing a lot of flops. I ended up winning for a little less then five dollar profit. I finished the night with two more turbo SnG's. To make a long story short, I lost three dollars, not a big amount, but not where I wanted to go. Tonight is another night, and with my girlfriend staying late at work for a parents evening I should be able to fit quite a few in.

Tomorrow night I was toying with the idea of playing the end of month tourney at the Cincinnati Club. At £75 though, it is quite steep. And with my poker bankroll not yet five times that, I have decided to give it a miss. It is too much to place on one night of poker. I will play next weeks game when it returns to its regular £25 night.

That being said, I definitely plan on playing online tomorrow night. My girlfriend is going out with friends, and since I think dancing and drinking in clubs rates somewhere between being stabbed with a dull knife and having my kneecaps broken with a baseball bat, pokerstars looks good. I also think that my first MTT on pokerstars would be a good idea and something to look forward to to replace the tourney at the club. Some 180 man SnG's may also tempt me from the depths that are turbo SnG's. Here's to hoping.
