Haven't been playing much lately. Just haven't felt right. When i have free time I've been tired or had places and things to do. My frame for a successful tournament is basically to be well rested, well feed, focused and have about 4.5hrs free time.
None of these requirements seem to come together recently... so even when i decided to play i didn't do well... meh.I'm feeling better this week and hopefully will play a few 180s before the end of the week.
Thats the only way i can describe what I've witnessed on the tables over the past couple days. I did play on Sunday but only cashed in the Turbo Take down for $35.00, finishing around 9000th out of 30,000 registered. I played ok, but i have to admit that i was a bit distracted by mafia wars.
Wow, is that game addictive or what! I log on to play for a short period and end up easily spending hours playing. I'm currently at level 27 and have 155 mafioso in my family after 4 days of play. I'm adding about 4 levels and 20 mafioso per day. Anyway enough about that, if you're interested search Mafia Wars on Facebook, Myspace or Tagged.
Below is three of the most idiotic hands i've seen in a long time. They're so bad its unbelievable. But i guess i shouldnt be surprised since they're from $10 and lower buy-in tournaments;
that,thats all folks!
I haven't updated in awhile. I've been spending alot of time recently playing Mafia Wars on facebook. Its a really addictive game, has to be since it kept me from poker. Guess its something to running a criminal enterprise.
I managed to play several $4 180 sngs on stars and managed to get relatively deep in all of them (final 3 tables) made two final tables finishing 2nd and 3rd. I finished in the 20s around the bubble in the others, and felt i couldve easily gone deeper.
Today i plan on playing several tournaments on stars.
The $5 $20k Gteed at 1pm
The Turbo Takedown at 2:30pm
The $8 5K Gteed at 4pm
That should do it. I may add more according how it goes early. I may have set myself up for a bit of failure in not resting properly or preparing as much as i could've before today's tournys, but i'll still give it a go.
