Live event

Well as of late I have been playing solid poker, with little profit to show for it though. I have finished in the top ten 13 times since I switched to fulltilt. Sounds way better then it looks though as I have only one first place win, 2 second place wins, 2 third place wins and get this 9 wins from 4th -9th. So you can see the problem, all though I am winning I am not placing in the top 3 and tourneys are "top heavy" by nature. So here I am, even for the month.

Something exciting is gonna happen in Aug though. I will be playing a live tourney (only my second big live tourney). Its for the Ronald McDonald Charity. The event will be at the Dela and will have 150 players. The prize pool will be 10k. So the charity gets 5k of the prize pool money witch would usually bother me but get this. The first 100 tickets were sold to Ronald McDonald charity people who most likely are just playing for the charity. That means the field will be super soft. So I have no problem with the prize pool.

Also my buddy at work (thanks Mike I will make u proud) has agreed to stake me in. For the usual arrangement (he pays and if I win he gets half, if I lose he pays) So wish me luck and I will keep u posted on how and where I place!

See you on the felt!
