Uneventful Week So Far

As the title to this post would suggest, this week has been uneventful.  I have played a few $2.25 large field tournaments, but have not cashed in any of them.  It looks like the 8 PM Pacific time $2.25 tournament averages about 600 players.  I have been close to the money, but just haven't quite made it.  I need to find a way to accumulate more chips early on.  I feel I have been playing pretty well.  It is rare that I put my entire stack in danger.  I have been patient and wait for good spots to get my chips in.  It is just a matter of time before I have a good finish in one of these.  I am consistently getting through most of the field, but keep finishing just outside the money.  Tonight, I finished 71st out of 609 and 63 places are paid.  When it got close to the money I was short stacked and I was trying to find spots where I could steal blinds or double up. On my last hand I was on the button with Q9 of spades.  I moved all in and the BB called with KQ.  A K fell on the flop and my tournament was over.  I will keep at it until I have a strong finish.  First place tonight paid almost $300.  That would be a nice boost to my bankroll experiment.  My bankroll is now at $110.06.
