streak continues

so i ran my stud hi-lo stt winning streak to 3 lastnight. this one was good because although i think i played well, i did catch some sick cards in the first 2. this one was more a product of my play - i got shortstacked 3-handed and had to fight my way back, and did just that, ultimately taking it down.

obv i dont expect to win every one i play, but going back to when i started playing, i believe i've played 6 stud hi-lo STTs, won 5 and came in 3rd in the 6th cause of a badly misplayed hand that blew it for me.

i'm not sure how many multi's i've played over the years, only a handful (mostly freerolls, probably only 2 or 3 paid entry tourneys), and did make a final table.

i'm not sure why, i think i just have a better feel for the game, and also i dont tilt at all because once i fold i really cant keep track of what cards i would have gotten, so it's not like folding a KJ in holdem and seeing a flop of AQ10 and steaming.

there's a $5 mtt on tilt tonight, so hopefully i'll give that a shot & we'll see how it goes.

but i made a decision, which is that i'm going to try to keep playing & see if it's for real or a fluke. and if i have success for a decent enough period of time, then next time there's a big tourney series in the area, ws circuit, borgata classic, etc. - i'll give the stud-8 tourney a crack.

so we'll see...
