No Ups, Plenty Down.

There's been some kind of constant effort to play this year but for one reason for another - unrelated to poker - the time had never came. The past few days have been my first entry back into the poker world finally with enough concentration to sit and play but it seems the luck didn't follow. The first four days have been terrible, money wise - spirits wise I'm still good. There's an expectation of loss whenever I plough into the poker world after a long break. Today was my first positive day, mainly because I only played one game but perhaps that has been the problem, diving straight back in to multiple games instead of enjoying one or two games aside each other like it was at the beginning.

There are a few bonuses happening for me right now. I recently tried the trial for Holdem Manager 2 and it's great, so much better than the first in all ways. Problem is, now I want it. So I've signed up to Winner Poker, A site I'd never even heard of before in order to earn enough points to get HM2 for free as is advertised on their site. Got a few tickets free and a bonus to work towards to, the points seem much harder to get than on Full Tilt or Pokerstars however. Over at Titan Poker where I'd always had an account but never deposited a admin flashed up when I was checking on my money in there that I'd won from a free ticket they gave me and she offered me some free tickets and a free $5 to deposit now. Why not I thought, she advise $20 was the minimum but I deposited 20euros by mistake. When I signed on there was another bonus to be earning by playing too, exactly like the Winner Poker as they are both on the same network. Then! Over at Full Tilt they just gave me a random bonus to work towards, I've barely played on there and I'm further through with that bonus than the others and as an added award they come out $2 at a time rather than $5. Anyway, I started with a bankroll of $107 in these four poker sites, Winner, Titan, Full Tilt & Pokerstars and I'm down to $83.59. Now I know it doesn't sound like much but as always I'm sticking to bankroll rules, well for the most, even this small loss can be attributed to bad bankroll management. 

Anyway, I'll keep going till I win or lose my money.
