Well I tilted at SNG's the other day. I was home sick, and spent the first few hours in bad shape, but after a while got the energy and desire up for some poker. I'd run shocking the last couple of days, so was determined to run good, and got my account up again after the last couple of days disappointments. I certainly ran much better, losing allins about the expected rate, like winning half the coin flips, winning more than half when I'm well ahead. I then had a mixture of bad internet and running bad. 3 times I lost an internet connection, costing me 3 * $57.5, basically ruining my day, and tilting me bad. Twice I regained connection within a minute and both times my opponent had forced my stack down to next to nothing, fuckers!!! I felt sick again anyway, so tried to rest some, but it didn't work too well, as the sickness made it difficult to just relax. I basically spent the afternoon out of it, and slept about 14 hours last night.
On the good side of things, I cleared my full tilt points needed for a CR free month, even though I haven't received my confirmation email yet, and am running on par for just scraping in for Bronze membership of the Iron Man for this month (assuming I get to play enough days). Given a full month I think I'll easily make Gold, if not Iron Man. Pokerstars is also offering a reload bonus, but it's a very low clearance rate. At 20 points per dollar, it's basically 25% rakeback for HU SNG's, which isn't itself terrible, but I'd think the FT 27% + free CR membership and other reload bonuses from Iron Man gives more back for me grinding a month of these SNG's in August (which is about how long it would take to clear the $240). I might put a very small bonus on there and use it for giving me something to clear for muck around times, but to be honest, $240 would be difficult for me to clear without spending quite a bit of time playing that site.
