5/28/10 Day 3 of my stake @ $52's

Today was Day 3 of my stake and I did indeed continue to run above Ev and that certainly helps when your every shove on the bubble is getting called by the nuts which is 44 ldo.

Wow variance can be a mother but it looks like I made it back to the red overall for the month.

Run Good One Time!

5/27/10 $52's Running at Ev is fun

So Today I ran at Ev which is all I ever ask for. No need to run like God here, I just want to be at Ev.

So overall I'm still running way below Ev but I'm sure that I will catch my red line soon. Come on run good one time!

I'm Back!

So it's been ages since I last blogged and was reminded by my backer that I haven't updated my blog so here I am.

Just to catch you guys up with whats been going on. My last post showed a horrible run in Feb. Well it didn't get much better after that. I was constantly running far below Ev and I almost quit. Well yesterday I found out what may have been a big cause of it. It appears that around 50 Chinese players were banned by PokerStars for collusion. This was taking place from the $5-$100 buy ins. Before Feb I had never received an admin credit and now they keep on coming in. A part of me is disgusted cause I have played several games with these cheats and as many of you know I hate to whine about variance and so I harbored a lot of it and almost quit playing from not being able to beat many of these bubbles. On the other hand a part of me is relieved and I can see a difference on the bubbles now and the games feel beatable again. You can read about the scandal here.

Well with all that run bad and crazy tough bubbles I took a break to play someSNGs on ftp and ran really good. So after running well and taking a break fromDoN's I decided to return to DoN's. I began playing the $52's this month and started out doing good but on Saturday I began running below Ev again. I was selling shares of my games and one of my backers wanted to stake me. The terms didn't seem to make sense so I inquired about a stake with JL514. He was like let's do this so we are in a stake for 500 games and hoping that this goes well for both of us.

Today was Day One of the stake and unfortunately I continued to run below Ev. I hope that the poker gods will allow me to start running good again real soon.
