How's your Poker Day Going? September 2009

We want to hear about all the bad beats and the monster pots you've won this month.

How did your poker day go?

Well this post won't be about a bad beat or a monster win.....just a stupid move on my part.
I had won a coupon in the $109 50k game for Sunday. Whilst playing that game, i was also in a few other games at the same time with boxes poping up all over the place, with me on final tables in two of them.
I was doing well in the others but totally card dead in the 50k so was like 3rd from last in it and counting my remaining blinds which were few. Break comes and box pops up while other boxes are popping up so i hit the "ok" thinking it was the 'ready to play' box which often pops up in merge sites. My heart sank when i realized i had hit the rebuy 'ok' button by mistake, as i would never rebuy with me so low in chips and at that price. :no:Needless to say i had just enough to cover the $109 rebuy so it immediately took it out leaving me with about $10 in my account.:cry:

I was gutted and tried to get live help to see if i could get it reversed before the 5 mins break was up ..but to no avail...their live help doesn't work :( (I ended up not winning a cent)

A lesson learned, of course, and my only consolation was that i did win $15 in one of the games and another $109 coupon in the other by coming in top 4 of approx 1100 in the Facebook game. (would rather have had the money instead)
Needless to say i won't be multitasking during the next one.

(move this post to the right place if you have to )

This is the exactly correct place for that post Loonzy. And that sucks. I have done something similar at much lower stakes.

I played only 7 tournaments but managed to risk $73 doing it. Not much love in the biggest ones but I managed to final table a $4 FLHE tourney on Pokerstars. 7th for $78 put me at +$21 for the day

Was sitting with a total of 15 buyins at 6 different tables, but actually still just breakeven for the day

Time to call it a day and review my game.

Doing well again on Cake slowly build my BR, Ive gone from $3 to $30 in about 5 days, up $5 today,

Logged on to FT played during the 3 times points happy hour and also played three tabes to get my FTP for the day so I can start that promotion, which should be easy money ( I hope )

So after an hour or so of play on the two sites I am up about $6 which might not sound like a lot but if I can keep it up I can do well

Became 3rd for $600

Very nice since I bought in with my VIP points and was basically freerolling.
