Mike K. writes about how a local Austin, TX game was robbed. He then goes on to talk about how to secure your game, as well as what the future holds for illegal home games. It's a good read. Take a look at ALL IN from the Porch.
After playing through my bonus in ONE night (four tabled for six hours straight), I ended up profit of $65. If you subtract the $100 bonus I got, that means I lot $35 playing. I took a couple of rough beats but overall I was not disappointed with my play.
I cashed out my account, $815. I probably won't be playing online until the next bonus. I need to concentrate on school which starts on August 31st.
I'll post if I play live games, which I probably will atleast once a week. Until then.
I played for about two hours the other day for a $48 profit. That brings my roll to about $250. I am going to continue to play the $25 until I get to about $1000. I'll move up to the $50 once I achieve $1000.
Hey, I did it earlier in the summer. If I have another bad streak like I did last time, I might consider just staying in the $25 game where I know I can win. Granted, it's not that much of an income, but I am not playing poker as an income. The extra money is nice, but I do not need it to survive.
Wish me luck at the tables. Only 700 hands to go for me to get that $100 BONUSAUG from PartyPoker.com :)
Wow, it's been awhile since my last post.
The worst happened. I hit another slump and decided to cut my losses at $300. I cashed out my $750 that I had (my peak was $1100. I took a month off of playing and have just started back up.
I received $68 in my party poker account, and quickly took that to $289 in one night playing the $25 buyin games. Last night was a little harsh to me, I lost $90 playing the $25 buyin. I would have AK and the flop would be A43 and he or she would have 44. Another instance I had AQ and on the flop of Q63 we both got our money in and he had 66. Just one of those nights where nothing seems to be going right.
Anyway, my account is sitting nicely at $202 now. I plan on doing the BONUSAUG deposit bonus on Partypoker.com (20% up to $100.)
Wish me luck.
