I can't believe that you think they're ROCKS! Are you picking good tables?! There should be at LEAST 16 FULL 100NL tables to choose from...of which at least 8 should have avg pots >$25. Those are the tables you jump on...and get off if >3 rocks (which is rare). Some days suck, but 90% of the time, between 9pm-midnight EST, that site is GOLDEN. Fishies left and right.

I usually never actually look at the avg. pot, it's something i should be doing though. When I say rock's i mean the avg vpip is something like 15%, although i still seem to be winning so i don't really mind that much.

The small session above was played at uni, and most of it was because of one hand. I get J9 in the BB and there are 2 limpers to me, SB folds and I check. The flop comes JJ9 I'm loving it but thinking i'm probably not going to get much here, it's an unraised pot and i'm OOP. Anyway the flop gets checked around. Turn brings a 7 or something and I bet $1 and the MP limper folds, the other one calls. River is an ace and I lead for $4, hoping he just caught his ace. He re-raises to $19 I go all in, he insta calls then mucks.. I'd love to know what his cards were though.

I'm about to put in a nice long session at HoldemPoker to hopefully clear the rest of the bonus, i've only got abour $35 to go which should clear in about 2 hours. After I clear this i'm going to finish off the tribeca bonus in the next day or so and then hopefully get it all together to make a big deposit to newyorkpoker. They have a 100% up to $2,500 bonus which clears at 10x and it's on the Ongame network. I've worked out that if I 8-table the NL100 tables at the rate that i am, it will clear at about $15/hr. That works out to 167 hours needed to finish the whole bonus =| Which is a lot but it IS a very nice clearance rate for the size of the bonus. The only problem is that I want to withdraw about $1,000 in a couple of weeks, so i'll need to check the T & C to make sure i'm allowed to, otherwise i might end up only depositing $2,000 or so. It all depends on how well I do clearing these current 2 bonuses.

Cleared in pretty much 2 hours I think I played fairly well, i made one iffy call near the start but apart from that i can't really see much else that i'd like to change in my play. The reason i can keep winning like this MUST be because of people like this, 2 examples:

I get in MP and there's 1 limper to me, i make it $5 and only the limper calls. Flop is and he checks, I bet $9 and he calls. Turn is the and he checks, I bet $25..he minraises me to $50, i push all-in and he calls. River is another jack, he flips over K9.

Another hand I get 44 in the SB and someone in LP minraises, the button re-raises to $4, i call as does the original raiser. Flop is 24Jr, i lead for $7 and they both call. Turn is a 5 and I check, next guy checks and the pre-flop re-raiser bets $10. I re-raise to $35, other guy folds and villian pushes, I call. He flips over TT and doesn't hit is 2 outer lol.

I'm happy with that loss given my luck

I am interested to see how your move to 200NL goes - that is kinda like the promised land for me for 2 reasons 1) I have a 4K roll behind me 2) It's where "Poker" really seems to start.

Good Luck. I read the journal frequently!

I don't get it...why can't you win on there? I LOVE ongame right now (for the last 25k hands!).

See, winning again at Ongame
