And another 1st in Cardschat freeroll - Pokerstars 1/63 - $25

Back-to-back Cardschat freeroll 1st place finishes.

A small win - Cardschat PartyPoker freeroll

Hardly been playing at all this past month on account of grandaughter staying at our place. Just no time for it. Played a handful of games today with a few on Titan as this will be one of the last days I'll be playing on there with them closing to Canadians. Ran like crap... no shocker there. Luckily took 1st in Cardschat PartyPoker freeroll for $50 & 13th in LATM $3k freeroll on Titan ($36). Looks like I'll be grinding a bunch come January once grandaughter goes back home.

57th in 'The Biggest $11' on Stars (26,993 entrants)

Ran like utter garbage in the early priv. tourneys today, went out one off or on the bubble in 3 of them & took some ridic donkings in the others. Had a few reg. tourneys still running & started running real well in the Big$11. (was sitting in top 10 when 400 left in it). Ended up going out in 57th for $311.40 (3bai w AQs vs 99, flopped NFD but couldn't get there).

1st Cardschat Carbon Freeroll

New freeroll leaderboard starting up on CC beginning in Oct. Played my first game tonight, didn't get onto the table til' just after 1st break (another work day). Managed to take it down. Total winnings in 2013 just from the CC freerolls is now over $1,400 Played a bit of rush for the Take2 promo pts. Up ~ 4buyins so far. Need 3 more days of it for the $10 bonus. Hoping to play tomorrow and then back to work on Friday. Play in the morning on Sat., again on Sunday & then back to work for most of next week (reno. a bathroom & paint, paint my sister's basement & maybe do a flood repair & paint at condo. in East Trail). Not much time for poker. Good thing I've been running good while I get the chance to play.

A decent afternoon on WilliamHill

Decent day today on WilliamHill. Not alot of time to play poker (still) & with today being the first of the month I'm typically real busy with tenants paying rent (& new ones moving in). With a couple of good 'value-added' games running on WilliamHill today I decided "F it! I'm taking a few hours for myself today." 12noon was the $3 buyin PokerTube game on WilliamHill. Managed to take 3rd place for $158.84 Also at 12noon was the "Monthly SideGames $5k Freeroll". With 350entrants (many of them non-poker players) this freeroll has alot of value (similiar to a $14 buyin). A few players off the bubble & I was sitting on only 10bb's but was actually in the upper half of the field (many, many players just blinding down hoping to get ITM). Final table was a bit crazy as effective stacks were really short. Ended up going out in 4th for a nice payday of $414.50 Went to Walmart to celebrate (lol). Good thing there isn't a computer store here in town because I would've been donating towards a new desktop. Instead I grabbed myself a diningroom table they have there that is the perfect size for a computer desk (wife-Darlene already has one). Not quite as big as the huge glass monster desk I'm currently using but more practical & can store sh1t underneath it. Table/desk retails for $149 but they had the display model on sale for $65. Real glad I waited this long to pick it up.

7th in Lock $50k ProElite ($135 buyin) for $1,700

Have hardly played any tournaments this month... just a few of the private ones & have been running like crap (lots of ridic donkings). Instead with limited time these days (actually been working a bunch) I've been playing some SPEED Poker on iPoker network instead (needing to clear enough pts. to qualify for a bunch of freerolls on WillHill & Titan). Speed Poker going okay, ~8,000 hands & over 22bb/100. Still miss tournaments though. (passed up on ALOT of priv. donkaments due to work committments). Today I only reg'd. for a few... wasn't really into playing & feel like I'm fighting off a flu bug. Did decide to play the $135 Lock ProElite $50k gtd. though, from a ticket I'd won in a 50seat freeroll (actually played that freeroll again yesterday & went out in 52nd lol AJ < K7s). Glad I played it! Managed to get 7th for $1,700. Busto hand was AQs < KJo :( Still a nice finish though. Might have to play a few more now (again, lol).

Playing mostly cash tables lately, trying to clear some pts. & course FREEROLLS (lol)

Looking at getting my money off of ACR so I've been playing more cash table lately (PL O8 & some NLHE). ACR Support finally gave me a number (amount of rake) I need to clear in order to WD my money from there (I'd stopped playing on there for over 6mos. due to previous b.s. responses from support). Turns out I need ~375pts. (5pts. = $1 rake). Hoping to have this cleared by the end of this week. Anything I happen to clear over $500 I will put towards my new computer! Playing a bit more on Titan lately too. Want to get a minimum of 250pts. on there to play in some of the bonus freerolls on there ie. > $2,000 Euro freeroll (just need to earn 50pts. on Euro Cash tables.. 'completed'), $3,000 LATM Depositor Freeroll (min. monthly deposit $20, 'completed'), Weekly $1,250 Depositor (comp.), LATM $2,000 freeroll (100pts. for entry), $2,000 Canadian Special Freeroll (earn 250pts.) and the Weekly VIP (Lev2) freerolls (250pts.) & the Monthly $5k VIP freeroll (Lev.2 - 250pts.). Just seems dumb to not play this minimal amount to play in these (and you know how much of a Freeroll whore I am, LoL). Hardly playing any tournaments at all these days aside from a handful of private ones. Also been playing some priv. freerolls (yes.. even those goofy RakeTheRake $100 freerolls, lol... sigh 17 -cashes, Total $18.99). Just barely missed a seat in the Lock 50seats freeroll. Went out 2 off the bubble with AQs < Q4o. gross! Took 2nd today in the Cardschat buyin on Stars. Was funny because I ended up headsup vs. Jenna and she fk'n beat me! I almost sucked out on her final hand with A7 v QQ.. flopped an Ace.. but turn brought a Q for set. Was decent game. She played quite well & I was totally impressed (she'd been doing the shits prior to today, getting last place a few times lately... and bad enough that I wasn't going to stake her for it anymore. Actually wasn't going to remind her of the game this morning because I didn't want to donate $5.50 to her for it. Glad I did now though. She did great!). Hopefully a big score to report soon! Also looking forward to a new computer.. soon!
