Been a while so here's an update
It's been roughly a week since I've done any updates, so I felt like I better give all 3 of my readers something to chew on ;-)
Let's see, a few new things have happened since last week. First, I didn't get any hands in this past weekend because I was in St. Louis at Mardi Gras with my girlfriend, uncle, and his girlfriend. It was fun seeing Jason and Heather but the actual Mardi Gras festivities left something to be desired... it was too cold, and the beer was almost painful to drink because of the chilling effects. We ate some good food though and had a good time nonetheless. We did manage to make a swing through the President's Casino in downtown STL. The main game was 4-8 limit hold 'em with $1-$2 blinds. Hold me back. While we were there we witnessed your typical group of small stakes monkeys with a splash of retardo floorman. If you have an opportunity to make it over to the President's casino...don't.
Also in big news, you're either not into online poker or you've been in a coma if you haven't heard of the whole JJProdigy and ZeeJustin Multi-table Tournament scandals. JJProd had roughly 140k confiscated because of multi-tabling accounts in the same tournament. ZeeJustin claims to have had 100k taken from him on Party. He had a much smaller amount seized on Stars, which is disappointing because who knows how rampant his cheating was. I used to really enjoy reading posts by ZJ, but it's all sort of tainted now that he was caught.
Last week on wed and thurs I played a few thousand hands. On Wed I was down about $650 and thursday I bounced back around $900. Oh the swings. I played a bit last night and netted double digit win (woo-hoo ?) and tonight I've played a few hundred hands breaking even. I'll get back to playing some more tonight with hopefully better results.
If I get the courage, I may take a shot at the $400 6max NL game on Party tonight. We'll see. I need to start making a move up the limits. I've been in $200NL for far too long... it's been my comfort zone for months, even though I'm plenty bankrolled for the $400 game. I haven't been on Martin's much lately. Everytime I log in there the games are dead. I need to get back to playing there though, so I can rack up those VIP points and get my 600 euro bonus.
Ok since I'm too lazy to post the hand here, I'll hyperlink two hands that I posted on 2+2 for you to check out. I thought they were semi interesting.
Hand 1 Villain ended up with AJo in this hand (forgot to post results on 2+2)
Hand 2
In other news, Phil Ivey totally owns a texas billionaire at the Wynn for millions. He's got so much natural talent, I could never make it to his level, but damn, I feel like I'm 12 years old again looking up to my dad's college football players who made it to the NFL. The difference is, this guy is only like 3 years older than me.
If I take a shot at the $400 games I'll try to post about it tomorrow sometime. As the kids today say:
"HOLLA!"
