It's been a good week back at the smaller game...up about 975 through 3 days. I've been playing well, and the cards still aren't running great - I guess that's the difference between the small and mid-stakes games for me right now. I can grind out a few hundred at the 1-2 table even when the cards aren't cooperating, but at the bigger game, I only break even without help from the cards. Breaking even when you're not running well is fine...I just want to book a few solid weeks of wins so that if I'm still breaking even when I go back to the bigger game, I can handle it emotionally. Hopefully, I'll run better. There are definitely some 4-5k weeks waiting for me.
Today I finished 5th out of 94 in a hundred dollar buyin tournament. It was nice to mix it up a little, and see how my improved play translated into a live tournament setting. I felt in complete control of the action the entire day. I think that over the next few weeks I will play a few more tournaments to keep sharp and to keep things interesting.
I've been writing a lot in a journal about Suzy and stuff. I may post that stuff in a blog, too, and maybe someday in a book...I've been told that my stories and thoughts about her help the people who miss her. It's definitely therapeutic for me - I'm just not sure about having 2 blogs at once...it seems a little self-important.
Either way I'll continue to update this blog. Right now I'm definitely just grinding...no TV appearances, celebrity run-ins, etc., so there's not a huge amount of interesting stuff for me to write about - I'm just a card player trying to make some money, and it's not very glamorous, but I love it.

If it's too self-important for you to write a blog about her, think of it as important to all of us. Write it! It will only help keep her vision alive.
