Date: Sun, Sep 13, 2009 Internet

So if you haven't noticed I've been bouncing up and down with the bankroll lately. I'm not committed to adding any more money at the moment so I've been playing some freerolls (doing well).

Gave up on the freeroll

Date: Tue, Sep 8, 2009 Internet

I made it to chip leader by a margin of 4:1 with only 15 players left, 10 of which were sitting out. I couldn't be bothered anymore to actually play the game so I just started doing pot bets (PLO, can't go all in easily)....

Date: Wed, Aug 12, 2009 Internet

I had the urge again to play a tournament online. I was sitting at a cash table with a depleted stack and an ad came up for a $1.5K guarantee for only $2. So I thought I'd put my remaining stack there instead of losing it to the table bully....
