I am waiting to begin WCOOP Event #18 which is a $215 buy-in HORSE MTT. There are 2091 people signed up making the prize pool $418,200. We start with T3000 in chips, 12 min levels, and 304 get paid. Let's see how this goes...The 1st hour the blinds were so low that you really couldn't make any significant moves. Nothing exciting and I ended up with T2869 with only 2 people busting out.

When I find the time to play online, I prefer to play in MTT's. It's what I have come to enjoy and MTT's seem to be my niche. I still play SNG's some and only rarely in cash games. The problem I run into is that I have little time to play, and MTT's take a big chunk of time if you get far. So the logical move would be to play in a Turbo MTT to solve the issue.Turbo MTT's go against my style of

Well, let's see - I have been married now for 3 years (4 come Feb). My son is 2 1/2 and is great (aside from a tantrum here and there). I've been playing online 1-2 times a week on PokerStars under BluMK. Mostly small tourneys. I am looking forward to the WCOOP which starts this Friday! I will be playing in the opening event which is a $215 buy-in NLHE 6-max Tourney. I prefer 6-max to full ring

However, I have decided to start this blog up again as a journal for myself to hopefully help work out some frustrations I have been dealing with lately. I have updated my links, over to the right => Just the poker related sites that I still like to visit. I promise no shilling - just stories from my day to day life. I will definitely include the

In honor of the WCOOP, Pokerstars is offering a 20% reload bonus up to $120. It goes from 07/21/05 to 07/28/05 and the playthrough is 5 FPP's for every dollar released. What is nice about PokerStars' bonuses is that they never expire, can be stacked, and you get FPP's for tournaments and SNG's as well as the regular ring games.I played in another WCOOP Qual last night. $5+0.50 (rebuys, add-on)

Per Double A's, Party Poker is having a 20% reload bonus up to $200! Only from today(12/17) through Monday (12/20). Use the code DECBONUS to get the extra $$. Yes, I am still alive, but I've only played a minimal amount of poker over the last two weeks. I hope to get a massive update up sometime this weekend. I'm just sitting here frustrated as I read all the sweet Vegas story re-caps. L8r.

Well it is now day three in my new single life and I am still alive. The move out went fairly well on Saturday, even though she took some of my DVD's, and locked all my doors inside my place out of spite. I actually left the apartment while she moved out. I trusted her enough not to mess with my stuff but I guess my Special Edition Lord of the Rings DVD's were too hard to pass up and now

I'm a firm believer that if you are taking something seriously, you have to set goals. Don't get me wrong, poker is my passion. I think about it more than anything else at this point in my life. I could play all day every day and never be bored with it. That being said, I have decided to set monthly profit goals for my play. I have based my goal on the amount of time I have to play while

I have never had a problem making a withdrawal before from PP, but it has never been more than $300, so there was a small nagging voice in the back of my head saying over and over "They're never going to send that money

I sit down at 0858p est and turn on my TV to see the tail end of an episode I had never seen before. My first thought was that I misread the paper on the starting time and now I had missed the first half of the finale. Not to mention, it

There is nothing better than waking up on a Sunday morning knowing there will be football on all day. What more could make this day better? Hmmm how about... poker? I jumped in the $10+1 NLH Multi on Party Poker (signup code Blu) at 0800a est with 455 peeps total (50 get paid). Starting with T1000, hour one was uneventful until I get AsKs in the small blind in level 4 (50/100). I make it

Has poker on TV reached its peak? Its hard to go a day without having some poker to watch on TV and I thought it was the greatest thing in the world. But aside from ESPN's coverage of the 2004 WSOP Main Event, the recent shows have been very disappointing. Take last night for example. The WPT had their first "Bad Boys of Poker" episode and it was the worst WPT event I have ever seen. I

I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend. I went to see the folks in Indy so I had very little time to play any poker. I played in one $10 Single SNG and won it last night. I had the always fun one-handed showdown. We were close to even in chips - I had T3900 and he had T3600. Blinds were 200/400 and I was the BB. I get Ah 9h and he raises to 1100 - I pop it again to 1700 and he calls.

I've played enough to know there will be down nights. No matter what you do, you're not going to the flops you want, bad beats a plenty, and it all seems to happen at the same time. I feel one of my strengths is being able to keep a level head when I know I am in the midst of a down night. I don't loosen up my starting hand requirements. I don't call people down when I know I'm beat. I try to

. . . . . . . . . . I thought last night's episodes (5&6) of the main event were very entertaining. Memorable moments: Raymer's first bluff of the night with Q2o and then seeing the rabbit cam confirming that he would have won the hand anyway. "The Mouth" calling Raymer's all in with 97 spades holding only second pair, no kicker, no flush draw - Raymer's all-in bet was for an addt'l 241K with

Only got to play last night for about 1.5 hours on Party Poker. I've been experimenting with playing a .50/1 Limit Holdem table and a .50/1 Omaha table at the same time. Ended up 11BB total for a 7BB/hr clip. I'll take it, because I was down early. The Omaha tables are big time juicy. If you hit your hand, several peeps will call u down all the way even if you check raise! Its great but you

Be forewarned, this post might be long. I haven't read any other blogs this morning so I am hoping that last night's tourney went off w/o a hitch. I only got to play one 3 hour session on Party Poker splitting time between .50/1 Limit Holdem and .50/1 Omaha and finished up 27BB for a nice 9BB/hour rate. The most interesting hand I had was one I actually lost. I had AQs in MP and raised it

I really know better than to play any poker after an argument. That being said, I was just about to sit down and play in the Party Poker satellite that gets you an entry in one of the weekday major tournies when my girlfriend decides she wants to have a "do you like poker more than me" discussion. The tourney starts at 1030p est and she is asking me this question at 1026p est. How do I get

I heard the strangest interview this morning. I listen to Howard Stern's radio show to get me through my 45 min morning commute, and today he was talking to Director/Actor Vincent Gallo. I had no previous knowledge of who this guy was but he usually stars in the movies he directs. One movie he did was Buffalo 66 back in 1997 which is a cult classic? I haven't seen it so I can't really confirm

I started playing poker seriously about 2 1/2 years ago. I've played in home games since my mid-teens but they were sporadic at best. I mainly play online now. I started at Party Poker at the beginning of 2002 and played there for about a year. Then I went to PokerStars and Full Tilt when they went live. I am now back at Party Poker because of the mass fish population. I have a small

Overall I thought last night's main event episodes were entertaining. Moments that stuck out for me: Sam Farha is the man. On the outside he looked calm and cool but you could feel how bad he still wanted to be playing. I can't believe Eric Seidel called a preflop raise all-in with K8o - Even if he was short stacked, what was he thinking there? I would bet the Maxim chick got hit on at least

After reading a couple posts about Party Poker starting up "Bad Beat Jackpot" tables, I decided to take a look and see how juicy the tables could be since I hadn't played there in over a year. OMG! I cannot stress enough how good these tables are for solid tight aggressive players. Now, I do not have a large bankroll by any means. I am playing .50/1 Limit this past Sunday and made $60 in two

I'm driving to work this morning and I hear the following stories: 1)For those of you not in the greater Cincinnati OH area, yesterday was the opening ceremony for the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center with Laura Bush as the key speaker. 10 years to plan, 2 years to build, it was a fairly big deal here locally. Several celebrities were suppossed to be on hand but ditched at the last

My first foray into the blogging world. A little background: I am not a writer by any means. I have been told that I type exactly how I speak and for some reason that tends to be unusual? However, I am passionate about my poker and can tell a good story now and again. I would welcome any suggestions for improvement, so please leave me a comment anytime. Over the weekend I got to play in the 200K
