Wow, how times flies.... been meaning to create a new post but keep not finding the time (ie lack of effort) to do so.
I think my poker career (LOL) or at least highlights will forever be limited to freerolls and micro limits.
Each time lately when I enter anything other than a freeroll or $1 tournament I fail miserably. Now perhaps that means I am just such a huge donk (hence the name Superfish) that I can only do fairly well at freerolls or.... well I just don't know what. LOL
It is sad to think that I have actually regressed in my playing abilities... definitely in the results. In 2006 I had a very nice year online (prior to the idiots in congress making their wonderful move to protect us). For me a nice year is nothing like most have in one week. LOL But I had a pretty good sized profit. This year I showed a profit but have nothing to show for it and it was about 1/5 of 2006's. I have less than $150 online total. Yet at little as 4 or 5 months ago I had around $1k. I made the huge mistake of playing limit poker on UB shortly after having placed well in two different $5 MTTs. Had won about $700 and thought I could make a little more at the cash tables since I play live limit ring games and do ok. I lost all of that profit in the course of 3 weeks. Hell I play $10/$20 live but couldn't beat the $2/$4 limit games online. I just spewed chips for those 3 weeks and kept telling myself it would turn around......... I was so wrong. So now I am stuck in Freeroll land and micro limits. I am too stubborn to deposit more and with the way I have been running it is probably better I don't. LOL
Have actually been doing fairly well in very large fields. Have made two final tables in fields of 5064(PS) and 5000(UB)! Of course both were freerolls. Also bubbled final table out of a field of 3050. Bad play on my part and my opponent set me up perfectly. It was a $1 tourney so was really hoping to make final table. Figured if I could get there I could at least get 6th place or better. Was very disappointed.
I have still been playing lots of freerolls on Fulltilt but haven't been able to cash lately. Made it pretty deep in the FT freeroll for a "Phil Gordon Final Table DVD". Only pays first place though, out of over 2600! What the hell do you need the DVD for if you can win it! LOL
Recently started playing on Greyhound poker also. They are strictly a flash based server so you do not actually have a program running on your computer. It is all done through IE. Plenty of drawbacks to it but they have a $25 freeroll every hour on the half. Usually fields are anywhere from 350 to 800 (max 1000). Top 18 are paid. Not too tough, just have to be patient and a little lucky. Have cashed twice. Going to keep hitting them up till I win over $10 then play a few SNGs.
Other than the freerolls just been pounding on the .50 and $1 SNGs on UB. LIke playing the 30man and 50man 50 cent tournies. I seem to do better in those than the single table SNGs. Have also made a couple of final tables in the 100 player SNGs.
