won a 75 buy in on tilt

shipped the 24k gtd on tilt for 8k on tues, along with a 2k chop of the ap afternoon 30r, and had my stakee go 3rd in the ap 20k for another 1k in profit that day. I think my 3 day week so far went -1k monday, +8k tues, -1400 today.......the 24k was a real weak tournament when we got down to the final two tables - I don't know if people were trying to move up in the money or what, but they were very tight and made it easy for me to chip up.......at the final table everyone was super nitty - people folding down to 4 bbs trying to move up payouts it was hilarious....thats the good thing about hitting bigger scores atleast mentally for me - of course everyone says they go for the win and dont think about the money, but if your dealing with a 1st place prize thats larger then uve ever hit itll definitely effect you. With this case it was 8k so it had zero effect on my play. I never look at payouts when Im deep in a tournament or at a final table - I hate knowing how much Im going to get outside of first and really any payout outside of first is a failure. I ended up winning some showdowns and got HU with like 70% of hte chips in play - we got it in pretty quickly preflop with me holding ATs vs his AKo but I flopped the flush and it was all over. Ill try to get the HH from the tournament - had a interesting hand with 12 to go that I wanted to post up.

thats it for now - im definitely gonna continue the grind for the month even with the great profit.....Im also going to try to watch some more PXF videos - ive been lazy about it but I gotta put in some more time learning the game. Alot of people when they run good think its because they played great but the reality is its alot easier to play good poker when you have easy decisions and your winning flips nonstop. Thats the problem with success - you dont learn anything from it, if anything success is bad for improving your game. You get lazy, over confident, and lose touch with reality. Some people might even move up to higher stakes when cards are running their way being blinded by luck. I know where my game stands and thats why you dont see me in 1ks, 100rs,etc where you have to play against real good players. I do well vs idiot fish but against good thinking players its alot tougher. So count me out of those MTTs for a while :)
