12 + 4 = 16

I decided to try increasing the number of tables that I play tonight. Full Tilt has a limit of 12 cash tables, so I opened up 4 tables on Poker Stars too.

It took about an hour to get into the flow. After that it wasn't really too much trouble. I made a little over $700 in 4.5 hours, so not a bad return for the first effort.

For now, I plan to continue trying 16 tables for the next few days and see what happens. If it goes well then I'm going to add 2 more Poker Stars tables and try playing 18.

Even with two 30" monitors (see initial post on blog for pictures) there is still a little overlap of tables. Here are screen shots from both monitors taken just after I'd finished playing:

August Update 1

August has gone OK, but not great, so far. Total after 9 days is $3,170 from 44 hours. ($72/hr.)

Poker Chairs

My poker chairs finally arrived this week, and they look pretty good. Hopefully I'll get some mates over next week and start taking their money.... I mean, start teaching them how to play!




Breast Competition #5

This lovely picture is of a Jamaican friend of mine who I met when a group of us went to Montego Bay for a lads' holiday. She was the trainee-manageress of the hotel. She was very helpful and most accommodating.

So, real or fake?

Real!

And what is the signification of the red mark beside my player name? :P

Tight/generally winning players I identify by the red mark.

Fish have a green mark, and the fishiest of the fish- who don't have a fold button- are blue.

Don't forget to put a green mark for Matt Hughes!

I would give him a red mark qhen he fights in the octagon, but at poker it is different! lol
