Finished the first week of my new staking deal, was relatively successful. Got off work early on Wednesday night, so decided to load up a few Mtts. New to the 4-max format on stars, but must say I'm loving them. Made a FT but unfortunately came 4th, also made the FT of the $4 quad. Got second place, first time I've ever lost HU in an Mtt, sucked to lose the record, although was pretty tired and reviewed the HH. I was pretty card dead HU. Anyway, it resulted in almost $1400 profit for the week. Which is not a bad start to be honest.
So there I was, starting to think ye, Stars isn't the worst place to ply my trade from now on. Then I go to transfer my backer his profit split. My transfer limits are $215 Daily, $300 weekly, $500 monthly. So I knew that wasn't going to be suffice and had heard it was quite easy to get an increase. Nope. Apparently they've got stricter with new customers. I need to earn 'x' amount of FPPS and make 'x' amount of deposits before it's increased. Just a nuisance. Come back to me Full Tilt :)... There's even a rumor Paddy Power may be purchasing tilt, although could just be clever promotion on their part. They had this picture up on their website, which is fairly suggestive; with the caption July 2011, Pokers changing!!
Other than play poker this week, been chilling out in the sun (yep SUN!!, in Ireland) playing some par 3 golf. At the moment it's tilting the shit out of me. When I was younger I was quite decent at Pitch and Putt, however I now suck. I hate not even been able to be competitive in the games I'm playing. Although I'm seriously determined to get better. Was in the driving range last night, which happened to be closed, so we just hoped one of the walls, collected some balls and hit away for free. After about 20 minutes, I was starting to be able to hit the 7iron quite consistently. Going from 2-3 good shots out of 10, to about 6-7 good shots out of 10. Only problem, the clubs I was using were a mates and quite good. Hope I'll be able to hit just as good with my inbits.jpg clubs :)
Booked time off work for a week in Tenerife just before my 21st and the week of the Dublin UKIPT (Final table is on my 21st) which I plan on shipping!!
Win UKPIT, head Vegas for my 21st birthday = Profit!!
