Two and a half months ago I started a new job. I'm working for a local credit union doing everything from opening accounts to loans to CDs to fixing problems etc. Pretty much if it doesn't involve cash I do it.

I say this because I've had to change my poker playing from mostly live games 2-3 nights per week back to playing almost exclusively online. Two reasons for this. One, with this job I really need to be on my "A" game due to the monstrous amount of information...

This was my first trip to Vegas since I started playing poker. It was quite a whirlwind trip since I flew in Thursday and left Saturday morning. I slept a total of about 4 hours while there...

I flew in with enough time to get to Ceasars, change clothes in the parking lot, register for the 3:00 $70 tournament that's capped at 50 players. They didn't give you very many starting chips but the blind levels were long enough to give you time to play. I went out 10th when I made...

Last night in my regular $1/$2 live game I went on my biggest rush yet. In the span of 3 hours I flopped quads once, 3 sets, and was hitting all kinds of draws.

I had my stack built up from $120 to around $550 in that 3 hour span. I had already decided I was going to leave as soon as it wouldn't be rude. Then came another monster.

The table was 6 handed and I forget the position but I was dealt QQ. The player to my right was on a similar rush and I found out later...

I broke $150 again from $0 today exactly 2 weeks later. In fact in one session I blew it away from $133 to where I am now at $174. I'm actually at a higher point than I got last time.

I started this one out the same way I did last time by grinding through a bunch of $1.20, 9 seat SNGs after I won my Sunday Hundred Grand Satellite on PS. ($11 in T$)

Once I was comfortably over $11 I ventured into a couple $1.20,18 seat SNGs and did fairly well. Once I got to about...

I made my most dramatic comeback last night. I'm still in a bit of shock but this is how it panned out.

Three nights ago I joined another regular game. It's closer to home, more respectable and all around better quality game than where I had been playing. I started looking around after my regular game started dieing out. I was headed out there Monday when I called and they said there wouldn't be enough people to even start a game so I called a buddy. He refereed me to this game....
