Late last week, I had the pleasure of being interviewed by David Huber for the 7Delux7 podcast. I am about 23 minutes in. Topics David asked me about were how I got started with poker, life in Lithuania, and patrolling the site to site transfer thread as a Moderator. The play now function doesn't seem to be working right, but you can download it as a MP3 and take a listen. http://www.pocketfives.com/articles/...odcast-586121/ Thank you David for having me on.
First 10 days in 2011 have been good for my finances, but bad for my backers. I have been doing quite well in the cash games, up over $3k in this time. I have been doing very well in the 10/20 10 Game, but oddly enough not been doing as well in the 8/16 to 15/30 O8 games which I did fairly well in last year. I know right now its just variance on the O8. I had a great start with the 1/2 and 2/4 NL Rush games, but have since cooled off and running just a tiny profit there. I am being backed now for a $17K SNG stake for 2011 by a few people. I am running about $4k under EV on those and currently showing about a $3k loss in those. So although I am doing well on my own dime, I do feel bad for my backers. I do know though, that 10 days is too early to judge, especially since I am playing games as high as $335s at the moment. I have confidence I will turn things around on this stake.
I am also getting ready for my honeymoon. My wife is having some visa issues, which I hope to be sorted out ASAP or there could be some problems. We are scheduled to go to Dubai on Jan 21st for a cruise on the 24th. It will be great to get out of the cold and enjoy seeing some of the world I have yet to experience.
That's all for now, gl to everyone in 2011!
