So I mentioned online poker in the title but didn't talk about it much. Since BF, I've played very little online. I put $200, intending to basically treat it as play money, on Lock and ran it up to $2,000. The tournaments on Lock were pretty good, and the PLO games super juicy. I managed to make one small withdraw, then people started having serious problems getting money off. I got really annoyed and basically just punted the rest off on roulette and blackjack.
Since then, I've decided I'm not going to try to play online until it's actually legal (the stories of super soft games on Bovada have me tempted though). I've joined a few games that are run by locals on Stars' Home Games but the rake on play money games is absurd. I got crushed playing 1-2 PLO in May, losing about $3,000, stopped playing it, and came back in the fall and won $6,000 in September/October/November (haven't played since November). I'm going to have a few PLO posts in this blog, but I've only played 1 session (live) since November; I have a love-hate relationship with it.
With online poker legal in NJ, I'm trying to figure out scenarios in which I can get to NJ and at least play the weekly tournaments on Party Poker.
For one thing, I need a new laptop, and probably a new subscription to Poker Tracker 4. Will probably look into that in the next week or so. I have friends who live in New Jersey, so I should be able to arrange something.
