Sunday, January 31st was the sickest Sunday I've ever seen in terms of prize pools. I played 16 MTTs that day and managed a deep run in the Brawl but busted like 105th. Besides a mincash in the Double Deuce and the 30r, that was all I could muster up. I knocked out Josh Arieh in the Brawl for an extra $240 and a tshirt so that was pretty cool.
I ended up not playing the first three days in Feb. For some reason I was incredibly tired and slept for what felt like days. It was as if my explosive January finally allowed me to rest mentally and physically after four months of grinding and putting all of myself into the game.
I feel like I'm back on track though and playing my updated late night schedule. It looks like this:
9:30 $55
9:45 $11
10:00 $26
10:30 $10r
10:45 $11 KO
11:00 $109 6max
11:00 $26 6max KO
11:30 $11 6max
12:00 $75 KO
12:00 $11
12:30 $20r
12:35 $5 1r1a
1:00 $26
1:30 $30 1r1a
1:35 $15 super turbo KO
1:59 $75
2:00 $11 6max
So I'm looking at 17 MTTs at a cost of about $723 bucks. This puts my average buyin at $43. I feel really comfortable with this.
My plan, as of right now, is to grind this late night sched and then grind a separate Sunday sched. Sundays will be just 8 MTTs. Those 8 MTTs start between 6:00pm and 8:00pm. My tentative Sunday sched looks like this:
6:00 $216 / 750K Guarantee
6:00 $26
6:35 $5r 6max
7:00 $75
7:05 $216 / Sunday Mulligan
7:30 $20r 6max
8:00 $163
8:00 $26
So this is 8 MTTs with a total cost of about $849.
My reasoning behind playing only 8 tourneys on Sundays is based mostly in my comfort level (and partly in the timing).
Sundays are expensive and bloody. By playing these 8 tourneys, I am spending a comfortable amount on buyins (only about $100 more than a regular session) while still taking my shots at big scores and taking advantage of all the EV on Sundays.
This way I ensure Sundays don't devastate me financially or emotionally.
Also, because I'm grinding a late night schedule during the rest of the week, starting at 6:00pm on Sundays is very practical.
Overall I feel like this is the perfect system/schedule/plan for me as it fits in with my comfort level very well. All I have to do now is just execute...
