This is just a test post from my iPhone Wordpress app incase I decide to actually start writing here again. I’ll be leaving for Vegas in two days to celebrate my 30th birthday. My birthday is actually at the end of next month but I wanted to be in Vegas to play the WSOP. I’m not sure if that’ll happen but it’s no big deal.
I plan to play a couple sattellites while I wait for everyone to arrive later in the evening. If those go well then I’ll obviously play in a event. Hopefully event 51. If not I’ll play a tourney at The Venitian or Cesars.
It’s been quite awhile since I posted and I may take this site into a different direction or may get back into blogging. Right now I’ve got other things that I need to focus on. In the mean time enjoy a couple iPhone wallpapers.
Right-click on the image, select Save Image as… and save to your computer. Once the image is saved to your computer make sure you place it in the folder that you sync your photos with Itunes. Next time you sync your device the images will be availble to use as a wallpaper. Enjoy!
The Heartland Poker Tour returns to Colorado with events starting today March 20th, 2009. The tour has become a very popular and the fields get bigger and bigger with each event. It looks like this is going to be a bi-annual stop for the HPT as they will be returning to The Golden Gates Casino this July.
I’m actually looking forward to the July event when Colorado law changes go into effect that may allow a direct buyin to the main event. I’ll be heading up the mountain this evening to play some $2-5 and $5-5 limit holdem. I may try to satellite in to the $340 qualifiers and get a seat to the main event. I’m not sure if I will though because for the second straight year I will be out of town most of the event. I’ll get back Friday April 3, so if I do win a seat I just have to cross my fingers that I don’t get day 1 flight A. I guess I could always sell my seat too.

Looks like I’m going to fall short on my goals this month as I haven’t played in over a week. I move into a new apartment this weekend, my Uncle passed away, and work has gotten busy. I wanted to play in some of the BBT4 events and the SCOOP coming up but we’ll have to see how next month shapes up. Once again the Heartland Poker Tour is here and once again I’ll be going out of town. Kind of frustrating but things are starting to go in the right direction. I wish you all the best and hope to get some poker related content up soon.
Best of Luck!
Well….. I’m glad that’s over! What a brutal month. From what I’ve been reading on other blogs it looks like I’m not the only one who’s glad to get through February alive. I played 2,800 hands across 10 limits with the majority of those hands being $0.25/$0.50 6 max. I’ve been trying to focus on playing one game consistently and have figured out that 0.25/0.50 6max LHE is the game that I excel at. Most of February’s loss came taking a shot at $1/$2 6max LHE where I proceeded to lose 28BBs. Not the best Idea coming off a tilt session.
I did manage to post a slightly profitable month playing tournaments for the second month in a row. Looking at my statistics dating back to when I first started shows that MTTs is my best overall game. I played 58 tournaments and had two big cashes which included a Final table in Full Tilt’s Daily Double and a 58th place finish in PokerStars $10K guaranteed.
So I’m glad that months over. March has started out excellent as in the first 4 days I’ve completely washed out my February losses. I had my first losing session yesterday when I tried 4 tabling for the first time. I’ve played a few tournaments but I’m focusing on making Iron Man for March. I figure in order for that to happen I need to play 500 hands a night during the week. This is by far the highest volume I’ve ever tried to play, but it should be pretty easy if I can 4 table 0.25/0.50 6max for 2 hours a night. Sundays will be reserved almost exclusively for tournaments and of course I’ll be playing the BBT4 events during the week.
My Goals for March:
- Move up to $0.50/$1 6max by April 1st
- Make Iron Man for March
- Play 10,000 hands
- Final Table a BTT4 event
- Take a couple shots at $20+ MTT
- Have a proper roll to play $10+ MTTs by April 1st
