Solid Profit for the last 24 hours

After being knocked down to less than $1k for a while a couple of days ago, yesterday morning brought me back up to the $1,050 range which is nice. My wife and I were up in bed last night just talking, reading, watching a little TV, and I went downstairs to make some tea. While it was boiling, I figured that I would hop on to FT for a few minutes and play a few hands. Here is the 4th hand I played:

I got up right after that and headed back upstairs with my tea, and had a wonderful night’s sleep. Extra $50 in the bankroll never hurt anyone. Anyways, couldn’t sleep around 5:45 am, so I got up and logged back on this morning. Here are a couple of nice hands from that 1-hour session:

I guess the whole ‘don’t go broke in an un-raised pot’ didn’t apply to that guy. Anyways, the last 24 hours has obviously been kind to my bankroll, and I am now back up to:

FT: $770
PS: $408
Total Bankroll: $1,178

My goal is $1,500 by the end of the month. I will keep you posted as I get closer.
Good luck to everyone at the tables.
