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 [...]
Well, it’s a few days early, but I honestly don’t think I’ll be playing any (or much) poker before the end of the month. If there is a material update, I’ll post again.
In keeping with my new schedule, even though I had a ton of time to play this month, I still played a pretty [...]
March saw a radical change in my online poker playing. Heretofore, I was playing in a ton of tournaments, most of them qualifiers, many of the $1 qualifiers. When I would win a seat to move on to the bigger tournament, I would play that. When I wouldn’t, I would skip the bigger tournament.
While it [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
