Sick deal for online players

http://www.poker-strategy.org/

This sites offer rakeback and poker tracker 3 on top of the sign up bonus when you first deposit money into various poker sites including (Fulltilt 27% and Cake Poker 33%, but not poker stars.) I will create a new FT account after I get my $600 back from the first account. I wish I knew this deal earlier.

Good week on Seattle Poker Open (2)

This is a mind blowing week for me in Seattle Poker Open. Out of their 4 nights of different formats of poker, I finished up 1st twice (Online and Ring game), 2nd twice, and another 3rd (Bounty tournament and short stack tournaments). I am changing my style and using Ed Miller and David Sklansky et al's strategy in the book Small Stakes Hold'em. It worked out unbelievably well for me.

I took down the weekly prize and heading to Tulalip for the $90 buy-in tournament. I will also try the limit game. SSH is an eye-opener for me and recommended by the open hold'em botting community. Let's see how it works in the toughest casino in Seattle this Saturday.
