A $50,000 savings

When you lose $485,000 in a single session, it doesn't qualify as a good night by any stretch of the imagination. However, when you think you've lost $535,000 and discover that you've really only lost $485,000, you feel a little bit better :-) That's what happened when I did my balance reconciliation tonight. One of the four tournaments I played last night was an MTT-R NLHE, and I almost invariably do an immediate rebuy as soon as I join a tournament of that type. Last night, I forgot to do the immediate rebuy, saving myself $50,000. I fired too many bullets in that tournament, but at least I didn't fire too many + 1 :-)
