Poker Articles

I thought I would use a blog entry rather than creating another one of those brag threads on the forums to tell you about my week. Pretty sure nobody is going to read this but I don't care. I bought a new computer last week since my old one crashed and it has giving me some good luck I suppose. The first tournament I played in was the $24+2 10k guaranteed on FTP and I took 2nd place for about $1700 which immediately covered my expenses for the computer. I had a 2-1 chiplead heads up but unfortunately got brutally sucked out on twice where I still don't know what my opponent was thinking, oh well still a solid score. The next 2 days I proceeded to play a bunch of tourneys and not cashing in any of them except winning a seat to the Melbourne Poker Championship satellite. Yesterday evening I played to tourney and actually won a package to play in the main event in May. I'm really excited about this because the only live poker experience I've had came from playing a total of four 10 euro SNG's in the Casino in Amsterdam. Also I just moved to Australia in February and I haven't been to Melbourne yet, so now I'm getting a free trip. I really can't wait to go.
