Maybe the Sky is not falling!

Date: Thu, Oct 12, 2006 Internet Tournament

Well today seems to better day in terms of the online gaming world. Neteller and Pokerstars made statements today that they will not be leaving the U.S. market. Also been getting emails from a couple of my rakeback sites that they can convert your existing Full Tilt Poker, Absolute Poker and soon Ultimate Bet to rakeback accounts if you did not sign up through another affiliate. The two sites I am referring to our in my right sidebar under rakeback sites.

On the note of rakeback have been reading a few blogs of late that our looking for sites to play that will pay you to play. Well I know of some sites that range in terms of rakeback from 60 percent to 150 percent. If you would like some more information contact me and I can steer you in the correct location. Some of these sites have seating rules and others don't. Some of the sites are done by contributing to pot which is refer to as rake rebate and others are based on rakeshare where you recieve a piece of the rakeback divided by number of players dealt cards. The one you choose is up to you if you are a tight player that plays full ring then I would recommend rakeshare because you get a piece of the rake whether you are in the pot or not. If you are loose player or like to play shorthanded then I would choose rake rebate because the number of players that get a share of the rake are only the ones in the pot. Wierd thing is maybe this stupid legislation might help us because if you did not have rakeback know you can get it.

Would like to give props to a site poker.com that is doing a reload bonus only for americans guess they are making a statement and trying to get some customers.

Back from the wedding!

Date: Mon, Oct 9, 2006 Internet Tournament

Well the wedding is over and we had a great time. I just got back on friday from the honeymoom and everything went well. The wedding day was perfect my bride looked amazing when she walked down the aisle my mouth dropped. The day went unbelievably well, we couldn't asked for a better ceremony. The reception was well done as well. From the wedding we went to Lauglin, Nevada for a few days and then we went to catalina island which is 25 miles inland from Long Beach, CA in the pacific ocean. We went on a glass bottom boat ride their and tour the city it was fun. We are so excited to be starting our lives together.

Then I get home and what in the world has happened to the state of poker. Everybody is panicking about the new legislation. Major poker sites are shutting down and others are following suit. I don't really know what to think of it but I did not like the news myself since I make most of my money playing online poker. Well I am glad a few of the sites have stepped and said they are going to stay open. Well I guess we will have to wait and see what happens when the piece of legislation is written and all the rules play out. Will some of these sites that closed down look like idiots because they panicked and will want us all back. We will have to wait and see. For now I am looking for places to play? I have read all the 2+2 articles on who is staying open and who is not. I really can't believe anything we are hearing until about a few weeks or months down the road when all this is straighten out.

Well as you can see the quest to 1,000 in prop pay is on a little hiatus. I have not decided what site to play on the site I had been playing on decided to cut down on our rakeback deal and our rumors that they will be closing up shop. So I am currently looking for another prop room. I have a couple ideas but not sure where to put my money right now. I guess I am in a little panic mode myself and anxious to see what happens. I guess the trait of good poker players are being tried right now and that is patience we will just have to see won't we. Well I am glad I am back with my wife and will be on her rambling out my everyday happenings in the world of poker.

Wedding Weekend

Date: Thu, Sep 28, 2006 Internet Tournament

Well poker has been going good again this week. I have not played as much as I would of liked to this week so the quest is going to take a lot longer then expected. But that is ok because the most important thing is I am winning on the cards and the prop pay right now is gravy. I am playing some good poker. I have been mixing up the games I have been playing NL, Dealers Choice and Limit holdem. I have not pulled up the skirt yet and played 2/4 limit. Just been grinding at the low limits. Well GG changed their policies again and are now paying daily so we are getting money each day which I am not sure if I like that or not.
