Jealous...

Dang....3 of my poker buddies will be heading over to Las Vegas in Feb. Normally I wouldn't give two flying cow pies about it. That is until....I saw pictures of MGM's new poker room in "All-In" magazine....SCORE!!!! very very nice room...I'll see if I can find more pixs...

Now this is interesting...

This is a well written post...something we should think about....But how often to we come up with a "master get rich quick at playing poker" scheme and dont follow it??

Limit Challenge

Perhaps I'll run over to Pacific and give this a go for LO8

Sitting and waiting....then BOOM

In this .10/.25 PLO8 (started with $15), all kinds of LAG stuff going on. I was waiting for someone to bet the flop or turn so that I can fold this hand. Well golly geez!!!! It gets checked to the river....BAM! thanks to both "nut lows" for calling my all-in. Thus, the best hand/pot won of the night... I made a cash withdrawl from UB a few days ago and left me at $33 or so....currently its back up to $62...

I get bored playing "fold'em till you get a very good hand" PLO8 so I had to play a tournament or something.....ahhhhh $5 turbo NL MTT at UB... with 15 minutes left only 183 registered!!!! sure!!! OHHHHHH darn it, now registration is over with 486 players with top 60 getting paid. How did I do, well... was TAG the whole way...potting and going all in after the flop...I did pretty well...then of course with you are in a TAG mode, blinds will get ya especially when playing turbo...my AKh failed to hit vs. JJ...and I'm out at 110th...

I'm starting to like UB more and more...sure the bonus sucks but the games are super fast and I like the things that UB offers (tournaments and cash games). I think you can probably play 3 hands of hold'em by the time Absolute finish dealing out the Omaha 8 cards.

Speaking of bonuses, "everyone" at 2+2 are whining and bitching about bonuses are becoming more difficult to clear. This is true...however...if you are a winning player then bonuses shouldn't matter...take note of that Bird....

Days of 20% up to $100 at Party are pretty much over...

THATS RIGHT BABY!!!!

Actually this is nothing to brag about. I'm currently playing a little at Pokerroom since some of my buddies and I will be playing in a private tournament tomorrow. So why not jump in the PLO8 $5 SNG tournament?? Actually I didnt do much until it got down to 4 of us. I was 3rd in chips with 1300 (4th had 500) while the leaders had about 6k each. Sometimes its a good idea to get out of the way and let people knock off each other. I find myself after folding the flop many times going "ohhhh gawd why did I fold??"...then by turn and river saying "whewwww glad I'm not in this one!"

Pokerroom is "ok"....nothing special about it yet. Then again I've only been playing on it for an hour while I was multi-ing PLO8 at UB.

Tell your children not to walk my way

Its all about being patience....

A had a chance to talk with Sirfwalgman yesterday through AIM. I basically told him I sucked at PLO8 and I need some pointers. Ol' Sir said something like "It all about being patience...".

Hmmmmm

Last night once again I jumped in the PLO8 .10/.25 tables with $15. Playing a nice game of fold'em....A588 double suited? fold.....A367 rainbow? fold.... A28J rainbow? fold....

But...then this happened:

wooooooo....that one put me at +$10...I was able to leave UB at +$15.... I was only able to win one more big pot after this one. Everyone kept folding to me everytime I made a pot bet.....hmmmmmm

Yeah thats the same Mattspoker that we all love and adore at the limit Omaha 8 tables over at Absolute. A true bonus whore he is....

Hmmmmm.....evaluation time

Last night at the PLO8 (.10/.25)tables....I totally sucked..-$30....I don't know what the hell happened...maybe I'm not suited to be playing 4 tables of PLO8 yet... However on the bright side....I did cap the evening playing some LO8 $1/$2 at Absolute (+$45) and coming in 2nd at a $5 LO8 Sng at Party (+$9)..
