4 | Poker goal for this month.... So I have decided that I want to profit $3,000 this month in SNGs before I leave for Vegas.

Money required until goal: $2,400 I will be updating up until June 29th when I fly out, stay tuned imo. Weekends will be where I get ... Published: Jun 11th, 2008 |

8 | Poker Monday June 9th, 2008 A quick update on last night. I played 1 single table satellite at the Rio. It was a $225 buyin and was really weak overall. We did a $20 last longer which I of course took down for an extra $100. I had a good read on this guy who was bullying the table and basically just crushing people. I however built my chipstack through him while he took out others. Him and I ended up heads up and chopped it ... Published: Jun 10th, 2008 |
