Breaking Away

Trying To Find Lady Luck

I spent a good part of last evening testing the waters between real money tourneys and play money tourneys on Full Tilt Poker as well as getting in a WSOP $1 Million Round 1 tourney on Poker Stars. (more…)

Hard Lesson Learned

I’ve been cheated

by the Card Fairy. The little be-atch is on the rampage 24/7, tracking me down and trampling me to death with a herd of ugly beats. Sure, they may not be ugly to you but that’s because they aren’t happening to you. I’ve played in about 3 to 4 tournaments a day and never made the $$ for the last week or so. The only thing that has kept my little BR hovering at the $500 mark is the 7 stud 8 or better $1&2 and occasional $2&4. That little be-atch hasn’t found me there yet. Whew! (more…)

Still Hanging In

The last seven days have been hell but I am still here. (more…)

Kicking a Field Goal…

Ok I admit I am not a big Football fan, but I know enough to understand a field goal gives the team three extra points. If money is points in my BR then I kicked the field goal! My BR goal was to have $1k by the end of April, but I didn’t make it.
