R.I.P. Poker Legend David 'Chip' Reese

Title says it all. I am still curious to see the cause, but it is unfortunate nonetheless. I am sure we all wish we could be half the poker player he was.

BFFB Week 13 Win

I have now joined Zeem as the only two who have repeat wins in the BFFB. I have essentially moved into third overall because Blinders doesn't count because Fantasy Sports Live is his site.

Top of the BFFB Leaderboard ($100/$50/$25 Bonus)
jek187 583.36
Blinders 491.80
bonds 438.49
jmathewson_III 407.11
Miami Don 387.18
HermWarfare 384.72

bayne_s 343.16

jek187 is going to be hard to catch, but I think I have a good chance of making into 2nd. There are 4 weeks left so anything can still happen.

Onto poker...

Not alot to talk about, but I have been showing a slight profit in $10nl. The stakes are so low and most of the opponents so bad it is hard to get very motivated. I've played a couple $50nl sessions and that has gone well, but I can't afford too much of a down streak there. I really want to work on building my bankroll so I can afford the higher limits.

I haven't played as many BBT2 tournaments as I would have liked, but I have done pretty poorly anyways. I made 1 final table, but have barely made it halfway through any others. A combination of bad luck (like set under set the 3rd hand), bad play (like going broke with A-K on an all low flop), and just not getting anything going. I hope to make a good run tonight in the Mondays at the Hoy. I am off to win a $26 token.
