I can’t believe how polar opposite tournaments/SnG’s vs ring games are right now. I seem to break even, or a bit under water, with my bank roll between the two. The hands that kill me are not 1 pair or 2 pairs, but set vs set or boat v boat. I just had a hand online where another player at the table did the online version of slow rolling. He took up all of the available time, then over half of the reserve to show a higher set. Unless the guy thought I was on a QT for a straight, he was just being an ass.
Now, SnG’s and Tournaments, I seem to be doing really well. I cash more often than not and I’m very pleased about that. I think I will stay away from cash tables for a bit, until I can afford the loss.

Hey,
I saw your post on another blog and figured I’d give you a headsup about a WPT giveaway I’m running this year.
You can win a weeklong vacation in the Bahamas, training from the pro’s and a shot at 10 WPT buyins plus $10,000 in cash!
The first satellite is held on Full Tilt Poker (a freeroll) February 10th.
Right now there’s only 34 players signed up, the top 4 advance to a single-table semi-final in February. The fields aren’t going to get any smaller as word of this promotion spreads. So if you want in, you’ll want to play some of the earlier events to have less competition.
Hope the tables & life are treating you well, and I look forward to you playing our free WPT satellite!
