I'm Back

Hey everyone,

So this past week has been difficult as well as far as playing poker. Who would have thought that a job would get in the way so much with poker? I have still be playing a bit, usually only one or two games a night though, and I haven't even really attempted and MTTs just because I have been exhausted after work and don't feel like sitting there for that long.

I think I have found out a workaround for some of the MTTs. freerolls and Buy-Ins, that I want to play though, the PokerSpace and CardsChat ones. I set up my computer so that I can log into it from work as a VNC. Basically what that means is that I can connect to my computer with a program that will let me view my home desktop, and control everything on it while I am at work. Therefore I will be able to open up my Poker sites and sign up for the tourneys, and the program will be open so that I won't get booted after 15 minutes of not being in there for not being logged in. So I am pretty excited about that.

Other than that I am almost at the $70 mark on Walker, which isn't too bad, but I still think I need to start getting into some MTTs with a higher payout than the $14 max possible on the Bounty tournies I have been playing, and that is if I got every single player out. I recently had a discussion with another poker player about whether Bounty Tournies were better than regualr ones, and what came out of it was, sure in a regular tourny, if you win you will win more than in a bounty, unless you get a lot of people out. But in a bounty, you don't neccesarily need to win to make the most money. I have gotten in 3rd place and made more money than the winner of the whole tourney, just because of my bounties. So think what you want about them, lol. Well I think that will be all for tonight.
