WBCOOP Day 5: Time to put myself together

The WBCOOP schedule and the number of remaining tickets impose a short break from playing, and the opportunity to set my personal schedule for the following events.

I had a very busy day at work and when I manage to come home late registration from Event 13 was closed. Too bad.

I don't like PL 5-card draw, so I don't play Event 14 and Event 15 kick off too late for me.

So I will play in the next day following tournaments:


Event 22, 08.03, PLO [6-Max]
Event 23, 08.03, NLHE Big Antes
Event 25, 09.03, NLHE Deep-Stacks
Event 28, 10.03, HORSE
Event 29, 10.03, NLHE [6-Max]

WBCOOP Day 4: Bubble!

I was playing today two events from World Championship of Online Poker and the closest to the money was a bubble from the Stud Event.

Monday is a good day to start anything, but not the personal winning series at WBCOOP. No sir, I must wait for that. The field is easy and enjoyable, but I'm not playing my A game so far.

WBCOOP Day 3: No cash so far

3 tickets used and no cash. That's the balance of WBCOOP 2013 for me so far, but I'm looking forward to this festival.

I played only No Limit Holdem Events, and I was the agressor every time. This attitude should be rewarded some day, this week I hope :)

WBCOOP Day 2: Resting

I take my time today to clear my mind a little bit. I spend dome time with my family and listen some music on Deezer.

After that I tried to catch up with some deals I neglected lately, ans spend 4 hours writing on some websites, but tonight I will play Chrome Freeroll on PokerStars, as Andre recommend.

WBCOOP scheduled today three events I didn't like so much: a Mixed Limit NLHE/PLO, a Shootout NLHE and in few hours a 8-Mix tournament. Hey, but how the latins used to say: De gustibus non est disputandum.

Tommorow  I will play Event 4 and 5 starting 17:00 EET, a 6-max and a regular NLH tournament.



Saturday morning

The spring is comming to Bucharest, I can tell that. I can smell it.
The air is fresh and some kind of energy flows everywhere.
It feels good to take a walk in one of the Parks around here.

WBCOOP Day 1

Today was the day. I used one of my ten WBCOOP tickets won with this blog post, and I guess I didn't do some performance with it.

I registered for the Event #1, a NLH tournament with a 10k chips starting stack and blind increasing every 10 minutes. That's a good structure, especially for non-turbo players.

I start playing from level 4, and I had only 100 BB for manoeuvre. I said only ... just kidding :) In fact I feel more comfortable with less than 20 BB, so I did some crazy things.

WBCOOP here I come

I just opened the PokerStars in order to planmy poker week-end and ... suprpise, surprise. I received 10 tickets to spend at World Championship of Online Poker. How nice :)

I was waiting for some announcing email, but obviously I was wrong.

I registered for the 1st event and I hop to make a deep run win a ticket. I'll keep you update about my performance during this poker festival.

Weeeek-end!!

I can hardly wait this week-end. After an exhausting  week I feel like spending some time for myself. Poker will be part of it, but not so much, as last month, for example. I will see what PokerStars can offer me.

I'm planning to write a little bit more, to read some books and watch my favorite TV Shows.

Of course, I will neglect my family :)

It’s nice to remember



Remembering a fabulous moment. I don’t see a better way to start a project than this one. The moment I want to blog here and now is not about the money. They come and fly right away (isn’t my case  but still …), and you don’t remember even you won something.



The importance of a big moment is the change of mind.

Last year I finished a PokerStars Micromillion Turbo Event in top three and I took home a four figures prize. It was awesome. The money was great, but the feeling I get was even greater. I managed to advance in the last three over a field consisting in more than five thousand players.

It was a though night. I stayed focus many hours, but as time goes by you want more to stay in the tournament. The 100th place isn’t enough. Perhaps at the start of the event you think how wonderful would be to reach the last 100, but when you’re there the things are changing. You want more.

Inspired

I thought is time to to go back my old blogger habits and get back to writing. This time I'll do it in english because I wanna go international :)

My inspiration was Andre. His challenge makes me be more careful about all the things I do in poker. I talk about playing, analyzing, marketing and so on.
This blog, along with my player profile page and Twitter account should help me maintain a journal of my activity, and provide a space for communication.

Let's get started.
