Tidbits in list form
- I hate Rush Poker, but somehow I guess I'll make it through Rush week on Silver status. 1/2 6m Rush is not exactly great in terms of game selection. In fact, the game mostly sucks. Still, I've been winning, hehe. Also weird how often you see premium cards, because of the "Quick Fold" button.
- Been playing at FTP ring games also. They c/r (semi)bluff more often. They also wait until the turn a lot, something that only happens at 5/T+ at Stars.Â
- I actually wanna also get Gold Iron Man status. We'll see how that goes, since my weekends are really busy.
- One of those weekends (the last one of the month) will be in Vegas. One of our friends from Germany is on a mega honeymoon tour through the US and we'll be celebrating his birthday there. I hope I can get some cash game in, even if it's a low 4/8 game.
- I took somebody for 3% at the main event and he cashed for 21k yay, doubled my investment. Not bad for 5 min of PM/transfer work.
- World Cup is over :( Now I can go back at being a dumbass at sports in comparison to other people. Especially when it comes to prop betting :D
- Besides the 100 points at FTP every day, have only played ~900 VPPs over at Stars. Games at the times I play have been pretty bad. I've seen them at other times, they tend to be better and more game selection.
- I banned myself from 2p2 for a week, because of work. Seems like I didn't miss a thing. That makes me both happy and sad.
- I need to participate in hand postings and I need to watch more videos. Playing is so much more fun, though. And hey, I'm still winning.
- After all the excitement of WSOP, sweating friends and texting fellow poker players, it almost seems like a lull has settled in. But that maybe the heat wave that has descended on the LA area too. Good that I'm going camping into the mountains this weekend.
- That's it! 'till next week!

Rush is evil, I went for the 1000 points/day at 6max 200NL, proper hard work 2 tabling 5 hrs/day for -$100 profit (though that was -$500 all in EV, best thing about NL:)) and the +$125 bonus. And I've discovered I can't quickly switch back to HULHE when (hah) I get action.
Cliffs: good exercise to find out whether it might be worth it long term; no.
gz with the stake though:)

I even have trouble sometimes with 6m <-> HUHU both LHE when I get action lol. :) Fortunately, it's mostly me spewing in 6m, rather than being a nit
