It’s Been A While…
Long time, no blog… I haven’t had a chance really to blog about my latest poker escapades but I have had a few nice cashes recently to bolster the bankroll. First, I took down the $4,000 Guaranteed HORSE tournament on Full Tilt for an $1,100 cash and then added a $109 Super Satellite to the FTOPS Main Event but cashed it in instead of using it. Now, the bankroll sits at somewhere above $3,500 which is a nice jump in the bankroll. I also am close to cracking the Top 100 on Bluff’s PokerDB Razz rankings.
It wasn’t all good as I tried to satellite into the FTOPS Razz event but fell short. I wanted to play in the event but a $300 buy-in was just a little too rich for my blood.
I don’t think I commented on the recent change made to the WSOP Main Event but since everyone else in the poker world has, I figured why not me too. If you haven’t heard, the Main Event will play down to the final table and then will be stopped and play will resume 4 months later and played on tape delay on television. This gives Harrah’s and ESPN a chance to market 9 players before it is decided rather than 1 player afterwards. From a marketing standpoint, I think it is genius but opens the game up to some integrity issues as well as a number of other factors that many have mentioned… although I am still for the change. If anyone who makes the final table and is unhappy with the decision, I will gladly take their spot.
Here’s the pictures of my recent results from my big win:
