I-Donker, and some sun.

Well after Januarys total disaster of a month, the first month I have ever lost money playing ring games (wtf, but true), I was in a bit of a spot. I was almost convinced that stars had it out for me, but the thing was after an awesome December MTT cash I was in almost in exactly the same postition that I was in on Dec 28th. It did'nt feel like it. So with some gusto and bravado I decided to deposit on I-Poker(paddy power) for a change of pace, and for once play on a site that actually rewards a relatively small volume player. So max deposit was $400 and I got a $600 deposit bonus for my efforts.

So far its been going well, I have stuck exclusively to playing nl$50, and apart from the insane problem with the massive infestation of shortstackers that they in mid-feb tbh its been a nice change. (The SS problem seems to be solved with full buyin tables and 50bb min tables all over the place now though). The reg's are terrible, and I mean terrible, and coming from a few months playing nl$100 reg's on Stars, I've been handing out a little pwnage to them, and I'm looking forward to moving up there. I still have 4K or so sitting on Stars for some reason thats beyond me, maybe I am in love or something, dunno. Graphz.



The auld junket trips that our business got in droves is drying up rapidly, and a trip that used to get over 100 had thanks to recession under 40 this year. Only Lanzorite (spelling lol) but 5* all the way, and beautiful weather is a nice break from the pure hell that is the first week in Feb in retail. No pics, cause really we did'nt take any. Highlights were losing a couple of ton in the casino, lots of swimming, and beating England by 1 (ONE lol) point in the 6 nations.

Google still has me banned from searches unless its very very very specific. Assholes.

do you use vista as your OS? it autoupdated on me and i was wondering if you knew if there was a patch or something out, because i can't seem to connect to any of my poker clients...

Congrats Tenbob on the turnaround, maybe I'll have to give iPoker a try myself! Let me know whether NL100 and NL200 are just as soft when you get there.

p.s. you play a lot of hands don't you! I've only played about 6k in the last month.

No issues here with Vista and and poker clients Poker Playa, check your firewall settings or post over on the forum if your still having any issues.

I have played a bit on nl$200 on i-poker last year Bombjack, tbh I found it very very soft in comparaion with the same level on stars, then again that was a while ago, Ill let you know how things go when I move up.
