alright, well...sounds like a nice touch to the place.
Ive had the best month ever in September, i built my BR up from nothing to 173$$!!! im hoping this good streak will continue during October as well:D . Ive only been playing online for about 4 months now and this is the first time i managed to really build something. im totally against depositing so i turned to the freerolls, private ones to be exact.
anyway, sorry to have written a short biography here, i wont blab anymore!!:D

Good job - what are you going to be playing with your bankroll?

October is good so far! Especially now that I made the switch from turbo sng's to regular ones. Just played 4 and cashed in all of them. :)

I believe congratulations are in order Dakota. 4 cashes in a row is stellar! Unfortunately, my October isn't off to that great a start. My cash game has taken a severe downswing after an initially steady start; I kid you not, I've had my boats run into better boats three times this week, not to mention straights vs rivered boats and flushes, and the likes. That's poker!

Getting married is def. +EV

Getting divorced is -EV.

The key to success is finding someone you can marry without the divorce. Best to wait till you're sure you have the nuts before you commit all your chips.

I hope things turn around for you, they certainly haven't for me. Once I have enough points for a jacket I'm leaving full donk for stars.

6 times AIPF with KK vs mostly shortstackers, lost all 6.

KK vs QTo loss
KK vs AQo loss (full stack loss)
KK vs QQ loss
KK vs AA loss
KK vs TT loss
KK vs 66 loss

Plus the wife is gone on a business trip for 3 days, so single parenting again. The kids broke one of the darts from my full donk dartboard.

I found 2 people on FT that are running at -50BB/100, friend listed them and they keep sucking out grr.

Got a Stars hoodie in the mail, it's very nice imo. It's black and the logo is embroidered.

Ummmm.....When i get back from my holiday i think ill just continue playing what i've played so far, its worked for me.
I have been playing many small SNG's, a few HU battles (i would say i win 3of5), i enjoy playing a super turbo every now and then. the game i rely most on for making money is micro stakes.
i play a lot at 0.02/0.05 and i find the level of play there to be rather low.
it doesnt take me much time to double or even triple up my entry there, like 20 minutes usulaly so i multitable. if there are no bad beats, i would say i make 8-10$ every 45 minutes there, the players there are so systematic, every hand they make the same move, very fun to get AA there, guaranteed action.:D

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.

You're in for a surprise my friend. There's still plenty of room for poker.
