May Madnesssssss

Yoooo!

Well it seems that every poker site (badbeat included) was running a 'May Madness' promo so chose that as a title... May was a pretty dam good month... Poker wise I made about $5k at the tables, got $1750 bonus from badbeat, and won a $2k package to a live event abroad... can't complain with that, and life generally is good atm.

I played nearly exclusively 1/2 last month with a little 50/1 thrown in when running terribad... and then for some reason 2/3 fish kept jumping up to 2/5 and so when there was a v juicy game of 2/5 running and I could get a seat on it, I snapped it up. Overall it felt good to pretty much crush $200nl, not so great to run bad at $100nl, and think I broke even at $500nl, but tbh shoulda have been +2/300 I just made a could of bad pow river calls.

The may madness badbeat promo was basically make $5k with your gross total profit and rake combine and I did it, (w0000peee) so that is a nice little $1750 bonus. Four other people achieved this feat and if your not familar with the promo we all now select a world cup group and if any of the teams in that group finish in the top 3 then you get another little freeroll at a bonus which relates to how much you have won in May/June/July... up to $20k... so hats off to badbeat for that awsome promo and more of you should have taken advantage of it!!!!!

Also I played a $110 sat to a Betfair live event in Ibiza.. and won it! eeeeek so as I write this I'm actually just getting the last of the packing done and my flight is tomorrow evening :-) I'm going with a friend of mine who has also brought into the event ($900) and it should be a really really good time. Previous times, (like wsope) Betfair have run events, its been very professional and a great experience. I'm sure there will be a few opening/closing parties and I believe they have kindly got us free entrances to pacha nightclub for the weekend. I've never been Ibiza but told that's the place to go so should be a blast.

Vegas for the WSOP is looking more and more likley. I busted a freeroll earlier this evening (ghey hand) to a main event package, but I think now that I have this extra $1750 from the promo I will see if that can be used for the WSOP and add it to my other live bankroll from earlier in the year. That will give me enouhg to play 2/3 events and a small $1k sng to the main maybe! So I'm determined to make it out there and if I cash in Ibiza then I'll %100 be there at about 22/29th June.

Anyways sorry for the rush and I'll confess to not proof reading this at all, but lots to do before I go to bed..... GL at the tables and see graphs below!

(My next blog might have some interesting news, and hopefully a report on how to own souls in sunny climates!)

Sam!

$200nl May: Pretty dam happy with this, felt good to play well and run close to ev... not to mention the red line being flat usually indicates my game is right on.

$100nl May: Obviously when I felt I was playing/running bad I dropped down so kinda makes sense to have this horrific graph...but not need for the ev! eeek
