I'm done with tournaments for the forseeable future.  They've just been a drain on my br these last few weeks and I don't like the structure of 90% of online tournaments, so I'm gonna leave them be for a while.

My BR finally got back to 2k today.  About $72 in rakeback put me over the top.  Not bad considering the ~$300 i've blowin in MTTs recently, but oh well.  Hopefully I've gotten that out of my system.  Next week I'm really going to focus on getting some 50nl hands in, as lately my FTP have been coming half from sngs and tournies and half from cash game sessions.  I actually only have about 5k hands put in this month, and I'm up over $300 in those sessions. 

I'm gonna go ahead and set a goal for myself to get my BR up to 3k by the end of November.  I'm up over $1k in cash games, mostly 25nl actually, in the last ~3.5 weeks, so I don't see any reason why this isn't doable.  That would put me in good shape to start taking shots at 100nl in December.

oh yeah.  I'm finally up at 50nl.  In just under 60k hands I managed to be down $1,421 at one point and now I'm up $81.  I owe the comeback to variance being fucking stupid.

Bowling Green > Pitt > Notre Dame imo

I started off November on a bad foot, not getting my 200 pts for ironman on the first day and owe it all to pure laziness.  I somewhat made up for it with 400 pts on the 2nd and already have my 200 pts for the 3rd.  I broke my no 25nl goal already, simply because I didn't feel like putting in a 50nl session and needed about 100 pts after some random SNGs earlier today.  Luckily I managed to be up 3+ BI in the 1k hands I put in.  That puts me at about +150 on the month, which I definately can't complain about.  Ironman is still easily reachable, but there is really no excuse for me to be missing days when I have nothing going on.  I only have 5 to spare for the month, and I know of two I'll be missing due to traveling and Thanksgiving.
