• Bumping Heads

  Posted on Thursday April 30th, 2009 at 19:30 in Poker, cash game, heads-up, sng

  Although I'm not posting quite as much as I did a while back, I've actually been playing poker regularly. I've been focusing primarily on heads-up SNGs at the $5 and $10 levels. I also played a short heads-up cash session against two random players...

• Baby Steps Heads-Up No-Limit

  Posted on Friday April 24th, 2009 at 19:30 in weekend, heads-up, sng, hunl

  I've been working my way through Moshman's Heads-Up No-Limit book. I've also been watching a bunch of HUNL videos including some of PokerSavvy instructor Roberts' videos and the Deuces Cracked Pr1nnyraiding series. The last time I played heads-up n...

  I try not to play poker when I'm sick. But after hacking my way through a boss in Silent Hill: Homecoming, I felt like hacking my way through a few micro-stake heads-up SNGs at Poker Stars. I took down two of three tonight over the span of a shor...

• Heads-Up

  Posted on Monday April 20th, 2009 at 19:30 in Heads Up, sng, hunl

  Let's keep this short and sweet: I've taken up heads-up no-limit hold'em yet again. I've been toying around with the micro and low stakes SNGs on Stars while I try to get my head in the game. I've been alright but not brilliantly. I'm 9 for 15 whi...

• More Games, Less Poker, and More Reading!

  Posted on Monday December 1st, 2008 at 06:00 in books, video games, Poker, sng, stt

  Once again, video games dominated my weekend's activities. A tough week at work and a weekend spent putting up Christmas decorations and lights left me unwilling to fire up any tables. I don't know about you but the Christmas season just doesn't sc...

• SNGs, Fallout 3, and Work

  You ever had one of those months at work where the harder you struggle, the worse things get? I'm there right now. It sucks but that's the price you pay to be a contributing member of society. Trust me - I'd give it all up for poker here and now i...

• Brushing Up

  Posted on Wednesday November 19th, 2008 at 06:00 in books, fl, Full Tilt, sng, stt

  I've been brushing up on my sit-n-go skills in over the past few days. I've been a little busy with work and with my Xbox 360 so I figure that SNGs (or STTs if you prefer) are probably my best bet poker-wise for now. After re-reading Moshman's Sit ...

• History Repeats Itself

  Posted on Monday October 6th, 2008 at 07:00 in Tilt, sng, ring games, bad play, running bad

  My weekend at the tables went as expected: quite poorly. I'm not sure why I start every month off on a losing streak but that's what's happened again. I'm not making any big mistakes in the games I'm playing but my bankroll's taken a hit regardless...

  My plans for this weekend are simple: time with the family, time with Lost Odyssey (my newest Xbox 360 RPG), and some poker. That's right! It's time to start re-introducing poker back into my life. I'm going to take it slowly. I need to view poker...

• It's a Bizarro World

  Sometimes I just don't get it. For months on end, I lose most coin-flips when it really matters. I bubble out of sit-n-go after sit-n-go. My bankroll goes from impressive to mediocre. My poker skills go from seemingly solid to flat-out terrible. ...
