Strange, since I have gotten comfortable playing live tourney's, I find I get impatient playing online!

Big day on Sunday PO. $13 KO, $33 MiniFTOPS and Double Deuce on Tilt, Red Spade on PS, €30 PLO on .fr. Will play a fair few random others (Storm, Bigs etc.) but won't be playing until then. How about you?

Went and played the Nooner yesterday, as usual, got to the final half of the field, means nothing, I could have registered late and done that.

Then sat at a stud 8 table. As soon as I can get this into my head I will be a constant winner;

The instant I get the notion it is time to leave, IT IS TIME TO LEAVE! :eek:

^^^ My new favorite poker philosophy. ^^^

Cool.
I forgot all about the DoubleDeuce (I haven't been playing on FTP at all... checked out their tourney lobby this week... WoW! has it changed!) Should be a good weekend on FTP though with MiniFtops running & the 10's of thousands playing 'The Big Little'

I'm not sure what I'm playing on the weekend (yet). Going to try to satty into some bigger tourneys (iPOPS).
Just playing a small amount today >
$30 iPOPS-#6L Titan(10,000 starting stack)
$10 $5,000GP Titan (< this one has 5,000 starting stack today, usually only 3,000)
$11 Pokerfest #25 Bounty $10k Gtd. partypoker

(& a few others, 'Big11', $5r/a, ... )
Thought about playing the $109 Pokerfest #26 today but not sure now.. starts in 1/2 hr. so will prob give it a pass.

I haven't been playing on Tilt either. Have busted/transferred my roll from there and won't be putting any back in a hurry. Have a few tickets left over so gonna use them up and be done with it I think. Good luck in your games.

Yah it just seemed really mickey-mouse when I was checking it out. I mean what used to be really popular games on that site (ie. the 45man reg. speed SNG) don't even f'n fun now. I thought about regging for a few .. checked the lobby & 0 players reg'd... but nevermind that.. 0 games running, LOL. sucks!
Didn't really feel like playing today (the weather here is f'n awesome.. must be 80degrees outside (28C).
And played anyways. And have been busting out to junk & miracle b.s. over & over. It's been gross (but didn't really give a sh1t tbh).

BUT.. still had the $40 iPOPS satty (to $215 ticket), 71 left, 50 get ticket.

Wake up w JJ... ship it.. no callers.
Very next hand.. AA MP raises.... I shove, they call with JJ.
Flop Q-J-4 ffs :( (sick.. I win that hand.. I fold to a ticket ez)

couple other goofy games left...
on 18bb's.. I raise UTG w AK. BB rrai! (huge fish). Cool. I call. They have A9o (what a joke!). River... '9' lol.. unreal.

Pretty sure I should've listened to the gut this morning. It was clearly screaming "Fack Poker" "Go outside & have a great day at the beach!"

Yeah the S&Gs are bad and I think they got rid of the On Demands which were great. The 3.30 KOs an rush ones are about all that run. But the tournament schedule is great, a nice variety of tournies all through the day.

Best way to satty into the Red Spade or get some easy t$? Feel like playing it for some reason but I am too frugal to buy in direct.

Have the house to myself for the past few days (wife's stepdad had a massive heart attack & is still in I.C.U., almost didn't make it through the first night... rough situation).
Figured I'd make the best of a bad deal & play some Pokerzz!!

Have played some of the MiniFtops, iPOPS, Pokerfest, etc... & some decent satties to bigger buyins (ie. $25- $40 buyin satties).
Have wiffed everything. Not runnin' the greatest either.

This one's for RamJam ;)
Was doing decently in one of the iPOPS yesterday & then in <5mins. went to the rail. ( aipf .. JJ < 66 (30bb's), then A5o jammed from eMP for 17bb's and it was enough for TT < A5o (he hit a boat) , JJ < 88 )

It ended with this one lol
with ~13bb's I open-shove KK in MP & get two callers... 'QQ' & 'JJ' (nice chance to get back up to 40bb stack!!!)

Figured I'd pop in to say I binked a 1 dollar rebuy satty last night into Poker Maximus Main Event #47 250k gtd ($215 buyin). By far the biggest gtd tournament I've ever played so i'm super excited!

Also, I will be playing in event #51. 30k gtd ($11 buyin) which starts 2 hours after the 250k gtd. Might unreg if i'm on a nice run in the 250.

I would advise anyone to jump into, at the very least, the 5 seat gtd 1 dollar rebuy satties that are running every night at 8:30pm ET. They also run a 2 seat with overlay at 9:30. 5 seat had $721 in overlay last night and the 2 seat had around $130 in overlay. Now I just need to bink the Maximus Freeroll to win a $530 ticket for event #49 and i'll be the happiest man alive! Lol

Just had this hand come up. Villain was spewing. Normally i'd fold I think. But honestly, do we put him on a straight at the end after 3betting/flatting a 4bet pre? Hard to see 33-88 so I didn't think straight. The only hand I worried about was seeing TT which he might play this way?
