Sick Weekend!

The fiancee went away for the weekend.

I 24 tabled Stars 25NL tables.

I played over 29 thousand hands.

I made $685

Just for clarification, I was playing 50NL Friday night and was getting nowhere. I actually lost $30, so I switched to 25NL. The 50NL is the downward trend at the beginning. Everything after that is 25NL.

These Happened in One Hour of Play...

Sexy

Poker players understand other poker players. But talk poker to a non-poker player and they give you a funny look.

So, as one poker player to another (I assume you are a poker player otherwise you wouldnt be reading this) is there anything sexier at the poker table when you raise preflop with aces and get re-raised?

Saturday Night

Played some last night and continued to play well. I ran very well, over 7ptbb/100, so obviously not sustainable, but quite a nice bit of variance. Overall, 4K hands played and almost $300 profit. Awesome.

That gave me 850 fpp's. So for platinum, I would need about 47K hands. That is a lot, but I will keep chugging away. As long as I make money platinum is a nice goal. But I will not play just for the sake of points and lose money.


Some nice hands, what some people do amazes me.

Highlights.

Ok, this next VICTIM was playing 96/0. He plays 96% of hands, never raising. This was over 93 hands. At a full ring table that is staggering, so keep that in mind.

S'up All?

Last weekend sucked.

I lost some money Saturday, regained some on Sunday, used 13.5K fpps and played the Sunday Warm Up losing out on a bluff (which I still debate was the right play), and went deep in the Sunday hundred grand but messed up.

That is last weekend in a nutshell.

This past week, I played two 5400 fpp satellites for the Sunday Million. I won one of them (well came in top four as top four win seats) and got myself $215. I unregistered and took the cash.

Yesterday I also started attacking February trying to make platinum star. Platinum Star gets you fpp's at a 150% rate while my current gold star only gets me 100%. More fpp's means more cash and the higher up you are in status the less hands you have to play to get that cash. 50K fpp's is worth $650. Not as much value as some other stuff in the fpp store but still, cash is cash. So for February, Platinum Star is what I am shooting for. But it will definitely be tough as it is a short month and platinum requires a lot of hands, but I have a 4 day long weekend coming up as well as the fiancee going home to Ireland for a weekend. That means a lot of poker will be played. I am confident platinum is within reach

I must say though, I have started out well. This is yesterday and today.




Going to play some tourneys today as well. I know that hurts my platinum star chase, but it is rare I get to play a deepstack tourney so I am going to enjoy it.
