Well, I have been playing some poker lately, but really haven’t been blogging about it too much. I decided with the new year and all that it is better to just throw up something whenver I play regardless of how short it is to keep people updated.
Maybe a month or 2 ago I decided I wanted to play in a couple of the Sunday Millions (now 1.5M) on PokerStars. I deposited $215 to play in one, and actually did pretty well, cashing in my first one for about $1200 or so. The next week I did a repeat performance and went a bit deeper, making $1450 or so. This gave me $2200 or so in cash so I then decided to play some of the EPT W$109 qualifiers that have been so soft in years past. I ended up winning 2 of these as well so had my account up to around $4000 in combined W$ and cash. I then played in one of the $650 PCA qualifiers that I ran KK into AA 2x in with no luck. I then cashed out $1000 for christmas presents and this past weekend played in the 30 seat guaranteed PCA qualifier. I was doing resonably well until I got down to around 9 big blinds and pushed with J9o in late position and was called by a short stack who woke up with AA. This left me with 3 big blinds and I pushed the next hand and was called by J9s of all hands which won the race vs my 89o. I feel very happy with my play. Maybe I should have waited a few more hands for something better but with the ante’s I don’t hate the play. I still have the bulk of my poker BR on Carbon Poker, but haven’t been playing all that much. I plan to change that in the new year though and blog about it too!
‘Til Next time,
