up and my game starts to slip from lack of practice....<br /><br />2009: After continuing to struggle at 2/4NL I drop back down to 1/2NL on my main site.  For fun I also start a Ferguson challenge to see how fast I can build up my Pokerstars account from $0 playing freerolls and microstakes -- so far I'm at $94.74!  At 1/2NL I plug some leaks, and eventually get comfortable enough to revisit 2/4NL.  I start taking stabs at 3/6NL at the end of the year, but that doesn't turn out so well.  Not going to try that again for a while.  Incidentally, PT has this feature that lets you see how lucky you are in all-in pots.  In my case, not very....<br /><br /><div style="display:block;text-align:left"><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v63/burningyen/cash2009.jpg" imageanchor="1"
