It's Been a Looooong Time...


I haven't updated this blog for ages, primarily because I haven't had anything exciting to talk about. I've been playing a lot of 10c/25c cash games and low-level sit-n-go's and have had decent success but am still waiting for that big tourney breakthrough. This week Pokerstars is doubling the cash prizes they award the top finishers on the sit-n-go leaderboard and also doubling the cash being awarded in the Battle of the Planets weekly leaderboard tourney so, since sit-n-go's are my strength, I am going to concentrate on $5-6 sit-n-go's this week hoping to qualify. So far I am doing great. I played 2 $5 9-player SNG's today and was able to grab a first and a third, and also played an 18-player SNG and grabbed a 3rd-place finish there as well, so after 3 tourneys (of the 20 I need to play to qualify) I have 93 leaderboard points, which is an excellent result. I plan to update my results each day this week.
You will also notice that I have added a few clickable "ads" on the left side of this page. These are all for charitable organizations and you are encouraged to check them out, especially the rainforestsite, breast cancer site, and hungersite - all you need to do is click on the page that appears and you will be helping support several great causes at absolutely no cost but a few seconds of your time. GoodSearch is also an excellent site, and if you are planning to purchase something from an online retailer and go through GoodSearch they will donate a % of your purchase to charity. I use it for all my eBay and Amazon purchases.
Also, I would like to congratulate Shannon Shorr and SirWatts on their big victories this month. Links to their blogs are located in the left-hand column as well, and are worth a read. Two young guys who have had much success and will likely continue to pwn.
