The Quiet Before the Storm
Tuesday, January 31st, 2006
End of the month and its pretty quiet in my poker world. I’ll have to do the Cryptos (both poker and casino) when February starts up but for now I’m just quietly plugging away at my last $120 Poker Stars bonus. Playing 3-4 10+1 SnGs over lunch will clear me in a month or so. [...]

My Adventures at Pokerroom
Wednesday, January 25th, 2006
So Pokerroom gives me a $50 bonus yesterday, with the caveat that I have to earn 200 player points by Feb 7 in order to cash it out. I don’t feel like playing the 200 points, so I decide I’m going to take the money and enter a tourney. I deposit $10 extra dollars and [...]

The sign of a great blog.
I am now in the red in poker on the month. Terrible night on Party at the 3/6 full tables. I should be just about done with the party bonus for the month, leaving me with just the NFL hands to work off for the [...]

Short update
Tuesday, January 24th, 2006
So soon after makign my last post about $25NL I realized that I probably didn’t have the time to play 4000+ hands of 25NL in the next 4 days, even with lunchtime hands counting double, and I immediately backtracked on that statement. Yesterday during lunch I fired up 4 3/6 bad beat full tables. [...]
