To all of my loyal blog fans… Hello? Is this thing on? 1…2…3…. testing… Here is my last installment of my poker history for the year 2009. I have been writing blog entries on the some other topics at another site, so I apologize for the long delay. After a bout with shingles, being a new parent of twin boys and being utterly exhausted, I decided to take the rest of July off. In fact, I hadn’t really known wheth ... <a href="/blogs/figaro3000/79951-My-poker-history-2009-Part-3">(continued)</a>
I haven’t given an update on much of my poker playing for a good reason. My poker challenge of zero to hero was going well up until the month of September when I focused primarily on NLHE. The easiest way to describe it would be…falling off a cliff followed by an uptick to breakeven over the course of another 3,000 hands followed by another cliff. Much like the offensive line of the Chicago Bears this seas ... <a href="/blogs/figaro3000/78451-So-how-is-the-poker-playing-going-">(continued)</a>
If I was playing like a lion in March, then I was definitely being showered in April as my rungood continued. I started off the month playing .50-1 and dabbled a little bit in NL10. How hard could NLHE be? After a few days of breakeven no-limit, I pushed the idea to the side and finally started to add some 1-2 FR LHE tables in to the mix with some nice success. My plan was to play my regular preflop game, but to ... <a href="/blogs/figaro3000/76031-My-poker-history-2009-Part-2">(continued)</a>
2009 was the first year that I felt more confident in my poker game, especially when it came to LHE. I had been playing .50-1 online and knew that I was a winning player over a long enough sample size. I had built my online bankroll up to the point where I had a good amount of cushion for the next level up at 1-2 if I felt confident in the jump. Normally you want between 250-500 BBs at the stake you’re normally a ... <a href="/blogs/figaro3000/75701-My-poker-history-2009-Part-1">(continued)</a>
So I decided to learn how to play Backgammon a few days ago. I saw a Hoyle’s rules book in the beach house where I am staying and took a break from kid duty to read the rules. There was a backgammon set, but I didn’t have anyone to play with, so I downloaded a droid application and went on to play over 200 games at different skill levels. This may be the next thing I become hooked on, unless I try Bacca ... <a href="/blogs/figaro3000/75351-Coming-to-you-live-in-God-s-Country-">(continued)</a>
Online poker in the U.S. has taken a huge blow and the ramifications across the industry are still to be determined, but needless to say there will be many changes. Many are distraught to the point of drinking, whining, going crazy, and yes, even thinking of playing live poker. I don’t blame any of them. I would, however, like to offer a different perspective. The old adage is that when one door closes, ano ... <a href="/blogs/tecmosuperbowl/65051-Attention-All-Poker-Players">(continued)</a>
I played a lot of hours this month so far. I try to play an average of 4 hours a day which normally means I get to play 2-3k hands. At the moment I feel good about it, but I know that I have to make some changes to keep being able doing that. My average day looks like this: Getting up at 9:30am, work from 10am to 3pm, dinner, poker from 4pm to 8/10pm, and then doing what I want to do. Tbh, after working for 9-11 hours (poker is fun ... <a href="/blogs/civstar/57491-grinding-etc">(continued)</a>
I am perplexed as to what to do. I love Poker but I love my family much more. I am seeking a balance of the both loves. My family of course does come first but want to “fit in” poker. I have found a local poker league that I can work in on Sunday afternoons. I am excited to always play live. I also see that I can go pretty well playing just once a week and get good practice. I also ... <a href="/blogs/whitelextown/50291-Live-Poker-vs-Online-Poker-w-3-kids-and-a-neglective-wife">(continued)</a>
