Performance Update

I played in a few online SNGs, but not winning. It seams that I am cursed against the three outter.

I finally won a lower limit SNG, but still not feeling great about my online performance. I then played in a small private online 7 card stud limit tourney and won. I got tremendous cards after the halfway point. I would start out with a pair, get a set on fourth street, then the rest of the cards would either be all of the same suit giving me a flush, all in a row giving me a straight, or pair up giving me a boat. I then played in a 9 player $30 SNG and won. Feeling better, but still down on the year online.

Signed up for Pitbull Poker. They have an awesome offer IMO. They give you $10 free, no deposit required. They just call you on the phone and then they put the money in your account. Who can pass up free money. They also offer 100% match on your deposit immediately. There is no requirement to play like mad just to get the money put into your account $5 at a time. I deposited $50 and now I have $110 in my account. Use the link in my blog or on my site, All Poker Blogs, for my referral, and use referal code APG. They also have poker leagues which I will look into when I have more time.

Played in my first Amateur Series Poker tournament on Monday and again on Tuesday at a local bar. Lost both times. Man do I need to improve my multi-table tournament game. I purchased a couple of books online to help me adjust my game to multi-table format. After busting out on Tuesday, I went over to a local cash game I know about and sat down at a table just starting. I started with $200, and an hour later, cashed out for $450. Feeling great about my cash game. Just need to work on my tournament game.

I signed up for the most expensive poker tournament I have ever entered, the Sinsation Poker Classic. The buyin is $500. It is at the Imperial Palace and seems to be sponsored by a porn company. Should be interesting. I have 10 days to shape-up my multi-table tournament game, and start BUSTING SOME FOOLS!
