Multis

Sorry I haven't posted in a couple days but I've been playing poker pretty much non-stop since Friday. I played mostly Multi Table Tournaments (MTT's) all weekend to break up the monotony of fixed limit hold'em. I didn't do well in any of the major's yesterday, but I decided that I wanted to try to win the Poker Stars weekly tournament leaderboard this week, so I played a bunch of smaller tournaments as well. I was close to doing very well in a few of the, I got 40th in the $22/RB when my KK ran into 10 6, got 33rd in the $11/RB, and 20th in a $20 tourney. I also played the Bluff Poker Tour $10 tournament on Full Tilt and got 2nd for 1.3k. The Bluff Poker is a series of tournaments over several months which each player earns points for. The winner at the end of the season gets a entry into a live tourney in the Bahamas or somewhere like that. If I play most of them I am pretty confident that I can win it.

I think playing multi's all week will be a good break from 5/10 and by next week I'll probably be bored of MTT's and be ready to grind again.

If I had won all 4 of those tournaments I would have made about $40,000, and If that would have happened I would have made 1/6th as much as my good friend Cody Slaubaugh won in the WCOOP event yesterday. Cody (thugmoneymkr) got 2nd in the $1,000 buy-in NL Hold'em tourney for almost $250,000. Cody lived with us in Vegas this summer and is now the 4th person from our house to have a score over six figures since Vegas. I like to think that patience is rewarded....
