Time to play Ketchup/Catsup/Catch Up!

LOL!!!

Well, I think I'm behind again. I believe Wednesday was the last time I posted with an update. Nothing too major happened since then. Or did it? Let me think.

Wednesday evening, I think I took the night off from playing poker and decided to watch poker. The WPT on The Travel Channel. Pretty good episode from last year at The Bellagio. I know they dont show all of the hands but I am beginning to see some real good play from these players. Speaking of The Bellagio, Phil Ivey is at the final TV table for the WPT Championship taking place this week. Go Phil!

Thursday night, I played a WSOP Qualifier on BoDog for $5+.50 just for shits and giggles. DIdnt feel like playing anything heavy since I was sleepy from playing and staying up late the past two nites. Well, I won at seat into the bigger Satellite. Tourney paid a $33 Tournament credit. I later found out that I could use that credit in other tournament qualifiers. So, that gave a mini boost to my BoDog Bankroll. lol

Friday, I didnt play much. Sometimes, I feel like I need a break from poker and will try to do other things. To be honest with you, my brand new pda (Dell Axim X50v, 624Mhz, with Wi-Fi and BlueTooth) came in that day and I played with it all night. lol I figured it was time to start keeping track of my poker expenses and what have you just a little bit better. I've already entered into my calendar, all of the major online tourneys. Pretty good stuff.

Saturday, not much poker at all. At least, not until Saturday night. Went to a $150 + $15 home game which took place in Bowie, Maryland. I was doing real well until I hit a hand where I flopped 2 pair. However, I did not play it right at all and I let my opponent see the river for cheap and suckout on me with at straight. That sucked pretty bad.

So, I decided to leave and head home to get some online play in. Made it home just in time to catch the BoDog $10,000 Guarantee at 10:30pm. I know its not a major even but I like it for some reason. I think its because every sinle night it always has an overlay (they dont get enough players to sign up and cover the guarantee. So, they have to kick in the money out of their pockets).

Well, I'm happy to report I finished in 7th place out of 276 players. $25 + $2 Buy-In and I was payed $359. What a confidence boost. I love making final tables. I guess I wouldn't have made the TV table though (The WPT only shows the final 6 players of a WPT event)if it were a WPT event. lol

So, that brings me up to now. Sunday. The Day of the $100,000 Guarantee on BoDog. Starts at 2pm. I have a lot of time to burn until then. I think I'll do a bit of reading. This week I started reading James McManus' Positively Fifth Street. Its actually a pretty good read. I havent gotten deep into it but it actual starts off with some heart pumping action. Literally.

Well, thats it for now. Oh, and if anyone can tell me where the month of April went, I really am looking for her. Its like she just dissapeared. I guess its almost summertime. Bring on Memorial Day Weekend!
