I recently finished collecting my bonus for pokerstars and traded some money (all of mine lol) so I could play on fulltilt. About two months ago, My brother transfered me 5 dollars, and I was able to turn that into 100. After a few rough weeks on pokerstars, i am up a very small amount, but Im ready to go again. Phase two is turning that same $100 into $500. This may take a while, hopefully not, but I am hoping I am able to complete this. I think it will be very challenging but I think i can do it. Anyways thats what Im up to, and I'll keep you guys posted. If I could play like brett Id be halfway there by the time Im done posting this ( he is doing well in the Bluff challenge). Thats it, bed time. Good luck at the tables everyone.

About a month after posting my last blog about reaching the $500 mark, it is finally complete. I did not have a set time frame, so I am happy to reach it in a months time. I thought I played fairly well and managed my bankroll decent. I did start playing $10 games earlier than I should have, but I was winning a good amount so I felt it was okay. Due to the take two promotion, I will not be switching sites until it is over, so I'd like to reach $600 min. by that time, and then i will be on my way to carbon poker I believe to hopefully build my bankroll some more. I will again keep you updated. Thanks for reading.

After playing for about 5 hours, placing 30th is a disappointment. I was hoping to make the final table atleast, as I'm sure everyone is haha. I was never a big chip leader, but I help my own throughout most of the tournament. At times I felt uncomfortable, but I held up pretty well. Twice in the span of about 20 minues a guy flopped a flush on me while I help Top Pair with a decent kicker. I lost what I think is the minimum on both hands considering I did not think he had it. On the last hand however, I feel like I made the right move but got the wrong result. I had 33 in EP, the blinds were 1/3K and there were 2 limpers. At this point I was in last place with around 32K in chips. With 13K in the pot and what I would consider high fold equity, I pushed all in. It was folded all the way around to the chip leader at the table who had around 130K in chips. He thought for a few seconds then called with 9 10o...and hit his 10. Im not sure If I made the wrong move, or he made a real lose call. I would think he would have folded in that spot, but who knows. Either way, going deep in this game is making me think my tournament game is getting stronger, but I still need a lot of work. Please feel free to comment, and suggestions and feedback would be greatly appreciated.
