119k the hard way

I've come to realize that I enjoy playing poker more when I have to overcome adversity. The shorthand for this is doing things the hard way. What's the hard way to make a profit of $119,000 for a session? Going $300,000 in the hole before turning things around certainly qualifies; that's the route I took last night. I failed to outlast the late registration period in the first three tournaments I entered. In other words, I started off with three straight 0th places. All was forgiven when I made it under the lights in the fourth tournament. In related news, my blue distance is now just $7,057. A mere pittance :-)
