Well, another month with a fair amount of poker frustration. That said, it was also a very good month on some other levels, including eeking out a small profit.
Without further ado, let’s get the economics out of the way: +$140.46.
Hardly earthshaking. In fact, as reported numerous times now, since I don’t play as much, and [...]
I won’t be playing tonight, so I can safely report this month’s results now.
Given the past few months, this one was financially successful. That said, it was extremely unsatisfying financially, while simultaneously being extremely satisfying from a having a good time perspective. I guess you can’t have it all.
So, the bottom line first, [...]
This month is simple to report on. Economically painful, but otherwise, enjoyable and almost non-existent.
I barely played this month. I’m reasonably sure it’s the lightest month since I started playing online poker in September 2004. That said, I played and lost two of the big weekly ones, paying full freight in both. I played in [...]
Same old, same old, with some new stuff thrown in, to throw me/you off.
Right after I reported on April’s results, I transferred some money from my one poker site to another site. The two sites have an agreement between them (perhaps there is joint ownership, but I have no idea) whereby you can [...]
I won’t be playing today, so I can summarize the month now. It was a terrible month both economically, as well as from a frustration point of view.
Let’s get the bad news out of the way up front: I lost $414.94 this month. That wipes out January’s gain and a little more, leaving me down [...]
So, we’re back in the hotel in Fredericksburg after spending the week in Florida. We were both exhausted, so other than a quick shopping trip this morning, we spent the day in the room.
I spent a fair amount of time playing poker during the day, all in qualifiers. I won a seat to the big [...]
What a great game last night. We had a bunch of people over (or rather, we were two of the bunch of people at our friends’ house in Richmond, VA), and it was a great party all around (food, conversation, game, etc.).
As I noted in this post, I didn’t bet on this year’s Superbowl (at [...]
I’ve loved football (playing and watching) since I’m six years old. Independent of that love, I have loved gambling (on a variety of things) since I’m 16 years old.
In my early 20’s, I briefly combined the two, and made my first series of football bets. It was a disaster, as I won early, raised my [...]
In my last two poker updates (here and here) I discussed my frustration with the one site I play on. I used to like pretty much everything about the site and the service, and now only the playing is fun, everything else stinks.
As a new example, I mentioned in the recent posts that they now [...]
Interesting few days of poker… In my last post on poker, I mentioned that I felt ripped off by my site for not allowing me to use my Tournament Dollars (TDs) to register in last Sunday’s big tourney. This was the first time ever that TDs weren’t an option.
I also mentioned that I wasn’t going [...]
