[tenbob]

[Mortis]

This month's starting out great... got really sick last night and passed out, missing out on The Ultimate Fighter last night, and still sick this morning.

 

[Debi]

Title changed and I hope it is true!

I am excited - I start my sng coaching tonight. Getting a great deal from somebody who is just starting to coach and offering some good prices. The feedback from those he has coached so far is very positive. He is a long term member at Stox and seems to be well respected there.

He is very thorough - gave me homework prior to the session and said I will have more afterwards. I had to fill out a questionaire and send to him - it included some sng scenarios. After reading my responses his next email started with a very polite...

"Okay. We have a lot of work to do...."

hehe

But the day I did my homework I placed itm in both of the sng's I played. There is hope! lol

Howdy Rocktober...

 

[eNTy]

[JimmyBrizzy]

yeahh cocktober

I'm gonna threaten fulltilt one more time this month for rakeback, get ran in circles, and then withdrawal all my funds for my move back to PokerStars. Please forgive me for leaving you the first time? I never stopped loving you and I was a fool to leave you in the first place.

I think I'll join you in your venture.... I haven't e-mailed them about this topic in at least a month... maybe two. Last time the response I received said something along these lines "We are currently working on a rakeback program for our users that cannot receive rackback. Please be patient."
I've been patient.... yet to hear back

Starting October with a local tournament, and possibly a cash game. Let's hope I bring home a first place tonight!

I'm also going to start reading a little more and improving the leaks in my game. I'm deff going to start learning every detail about HEM I can... I might as well since I bought it and have yet to really use it! I'm going to try to at least play live once a week this month! See what happens with that!
I'm also going to get busting on my P90X!

My poker time in Rocktober will likely be very minimal. Wife is likely to deliver our 1st baby (boy) this month. She's not technically due until Nov 5th, but the doctors are thinking she'll go a little early.
I'm imagining that baby time >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> poker time.

gl to all.
