20K HANDS
Alright so I should've updated this when I reached 10k hands, but I reached that pretty quickly so instead of just hitting my check marker I decided to go for 20k hands , I wasnt actually to pleased with how I played this month I was very spewy in spots but its a lesson for next month a wins a win and theres plenty of room to improve.
however this time I used another pokersite for a change being Fulltilt due to the hands per hour being faster, I have to admit I was recently doing well on there up quite alot quickly at 25nl ($200 on tilt) although I still played on PKR at times.
However like the idiot I am after I worked a night shit 9 till 6 in the morning I thought it would be a good idea at 7am till 9am to fire up a poker session........LOLZ
WARNING TO ALL: NEVER PLAY TIRED - EVER!
It cost me $100....I usually stop loss at 50 but...I was being an idiot lol
however the play style on other sites can be tougher alot more 3 betting/4 betting you just dont see on PKR.
Its not an ego thing playing on a mainstream site, its just longterm poker decission for me. To be playing with enough hands with a decent hud and having more tables to select from and to be confident I can support myself like this one maybe crazy dream to be a 'poker professional'. I gotta play with the better players for a while it sucks but I will have to learn until I get it right and then I will know if I can do this.
(AT PKR I CAN BEAT 25nl TO A PULP and will still play there for bread and butter if times get harder)
since the game selection at 50nl is vaster and the hands per hour are greater at fulltilt, and this also enables me for more professional coaching in the future which I'm considering.
however this is a poker decission longterm
PKR doesnt have a large poker population unfortuantley, but it does make up for this with the slew of bad players a 25nl and is profitable! At 50nl it seems like a bunch of regs and you get to the point where u know every one to well as they know you, not to knock it and it can sure be beaten, but since the competition is slightly better at 50nl most times I would like the option of table selecting hence adding in another poker site.
I have a big roll to tangle with these guys with and future grinding on pkr at the moment wouldnt really change how I see things even if I have like a massive roll
this roll will be my learning tution and if I need more back to pkr I will go! lol
iron on iron makes you a better player and all that. However when in need I will take the free money at the moment I'm fine, howver I did withdraw alot of this months winnings unfortuanltey but it was an emergency...which sucks bit it also paid partly for my roll at tilt.

The Poker Hall Of Fame
The Poker Hall Of Fame
It would be no suprise that every one was expecting Phil Ivey to be a very highly favoured hall of famer however it brought a storm of discussion in the poker community being the criteria of a hall of famer has to
*played for high stakes (tick)
*Consistently well (tick)
*Against acknoweledged top competition (tick)
however this is the one that caused problems
*Has stood the test of time (ummmmmm?)
how long is the test of time was the question
phil ivey is still a young player even though his achievements in the poker world has been mind exploding stuff, Phil Ivey himself said if he got elected as a hall of famer he would turn the award down!
....Ivey is so dam cool lol
but he got alot of respect for saying this from Doyle Brunson who said:
"Speaking of the Hall of Fame, my hat goes off to Phil Ivey who announced he wouldn’t accept the award if he was voted into the Hall. Phil said he didn’t want to be voted in until he was older than Chip Reese was when he was inducted as the youngest player ever. Chip was 43 and what a tribute to him from Phil. There is no doubt that Phil was the best player on this year’s list of nominees but that doesn’t mean he should go in yet. It also should show the committee they should have an age limit for the nominees."
Those who advocate an age requirement have been clamoring for a "Chip Reese Rule," which would require a nominee to be a minimum of 40 years old for induction
and is fully supported by Howard Lederer
when the results came in Ivey breathed a sigh of relief when the poker community elected Erik Seidel as the hall of famer.
in my opinion I really respect Ivey for this, hes still so young and to give him this award as well wouldnt give him much more to ahieve in the poker world, I wanna see how hes doing in the years ahead!
So I will be playing alot more fulltilt this month so the only way I can sumamrise my thoughts on this is this:
P.S : Still playign pkr just not as much as tilt this month unlesss I'm getting mud stomped lol
Good Luck at the tables.
