I'm back

Obviously I haven't posted in a couple of months. Frankly until 2 or 3 weeks ago I was playing virtually no on-line poker. The post Black Friday on-line environment is pretty crappy and feels like a house of cards (pardon pun) ready to fall at any time. But about 3 weeks ago I deposited $100 on Lock Poker and began playing mostly micro-stakes PLO while I build an online bankroll. The PLO8 games are virtually dead and there just aren't enough to keep me 6-8 tabling. So I have moved to exclusively PLO Hi-only and the play is about what you would expect at micro levels. I ran the initial $100 to $500 then ran like death back down to $100 but have rebounded and see my bankroll at a whopping $450 at the moment. I hate having to play these micro stakes but I just don't trust the political/regulatory environment enough to put more $$ on and play at higher stakes.

I did make a final table in the Borgata Poker Open-Event finishing 8th in Event 15 the PLO8 http://www.theborgata.com/Main.cfm?Category_1=3000&Category_2=3500&Category_3=3510&SchedulePageID=726D71B6-D5B3-5F0A-95404FD0C8A1FD50

Also won ~1k playing a mix of 2/5 NLHE and 10/20 Limit Omaha Hi/Lo so that was a good trip. Will be back up to the Borgata for the newly formed Fall Poker Open and I intend to play some combination of these events:

8	Deep Stack No Limit Hold'em (Re-Entry) $100,000 GUARANTEED Day 1 Day 2	Mn 11/14 Tue 11/15	11am 12pm	$350	$50	DETAILS

14	Black Chip Bounty No Limit Hold'Em (Re-Entry)	Thu 11/17	11am	$350	$50+$100	DETAILS

Anyway, I probably will only be updating here when interesting things arise. Prior to Black Friday I was trying to build this blog up partially because I was being considered for an affilliation with one of the sites. Obviously that possibility is ZERO-POINT-ZERO at this time so my updates will be fewer and further between. I will continue to update twitter when I am in various tournament series, etc.
