Rough day

Rough day personally - still managed to profit from poker
My wife is not getting out of hospital til at least Monday so that sucks - home alone again ( my daughter is staying at her grans tonight to help me out)
Great opportunity to play poker but I'm too depressed and tired to enjoy it much.
Anyway managed 8 bottles of beer, 10 SNGs, 1 multi (400 players) and 1 shorthanded multi (only 35 players)
SNGs - did ok despite losing the first 4, got 1 1st 3 2nds and 1 3rd out of 10 tournies. A slight profit - $20 or something I guess.
got about 25th in the 400 player tournie - not bad but not much money for that - got $15 ($5+0.5 tourney)
4th in the shorthanded one - should have done better - was very tired and happy to be in money so called an all in with 66 when I still had 17/18 blinds. The problem was every time I raised the same player reraised all in so I felt I had to do a race. Not true really - I don't usually do that. Anyway it wasn't a terrible call as I was ahead (he obviously had overs) but he hit one of his overs.
Closing roll $416 and $20+2 ticket - happy enough that still making a profit on a bad day!
