Over a month...


...and things are still going well! I really need to step up my volume and narrow down the type of games I'm playing but things are still going well overall.

I'm currently 3rd for the month and year in the PokerStars Women's League and can hopefully finish the month 1st in both, wish me luck and send me good karma. First for the year is a great accomplishment and comes with a $1500 bonus plus a luxury package to a live women's tournament.

The Women's League was a great idea on PokerStars part. It has brought many women to the world of online play who would have never tried it without the comfort of a special league where they could play with only women.

I never understood before how many women just didn't like playing with men. Playing against men never bothered me even when I first started playing so it never dawned on me that some women wanted to only play against other women. So that said I'm so glad PokerStars created the league to give them a comfortable place to play.

I have met some of the nicest women through the league games. Many of us have become friends on Facebook and talk with each other through Skype. I have gotten involved with several women's poker groups. I can't wait for the opportunity to play in a live women's game. So funny a few months ago I would have never thought I would have said that.

Well here's to more good poker days to come...

Appears that not working agrees with me...

I have now been unemployed for 24 days and over that 24 days I have won several nice MTsngs and had some cashes in a couple of MTTs. Overall I've never played better. My mindset is good and it shows in my games. I still have several nice size leaks to work on but don't we all.

I finally took down a $3.30 rebuy 180 man on Stars for a very nice profit. That's a pretty tough game and 5th is the best finish I had before. I've also taken down a few other MTsngs and it certainly feels nice to finish first out of 90 to 180 players.

I played the Turbo Takedown on Sunday and finished in the top 10% for $105. Not bad for the biggest donk-a-ment of the month.

Well onward and upward!!! Hope to report more winnings soon!

Wow I think this is the shortest blog I've ever written.
