I'm Back and playing Full Ring now

Okay, it was a nice break. I redeposited $1k and I'm going to grind $25nlhe Full Ring at FTP for awhile. I played a 4 hour session where I 8 tabled. I wanted to add more tables but I had to email FTP to increase it. I just got their response and they increased it to 16 tables.

I was inspired by Ryan Daut's mass tabling videos on CR and Jason (LuckySOB) taking up Full Ring for the past few months. I figure I give this a shot because SH has been very frustrating. I just want to grind and play as much hands as possible. I don't even want to think results, I just wanna rebuild my bankroll and poker confidence. If I can get anywhere between 2ptbb/100 or higher I'll be very very happy. I think I forgot how it feels to be a winner at poker.

I dropped 4 buyins over 1600 hands today but I didn't tilt. Amazing when the $ amount doesn't hurt. I think I'm only psychologically ready to lose at $25 nlhe and nothing above. We'll see what happens when I start to grind 16 plus tables. I've never done it before so I'm not sure if I can handle it. 8 tabling was easy and I didn't feel rushed playing TAG ABC. I'll keep adjusting and see how many tables I can comfortably play.

I basically center all my tables on the center of my 24inch HP Flat Panel and if a tricky/big hand pops up I manually move it to the side so that I can pay closer attention to that hand. It works very well for 8 tables, I'm not so sure how it'll work with 16 tables (Got the idea from Jason). I know Jason has a hotkey that allows him to move the tables around on his screen. Pretty sick if I can have a similar setup as Jason.
