A gift for myself

It's on its way! I am talking about my Sony 55 inch Grand WEGA big screen TV that is being delivered today. I just got a call from the delivery team and they should be here before the first set of NFL games kick off today.

I scored a nice $1350 payday Friday night in the FullTilt's 10K guaranteed tournament. I really thought I would take down the first place of >$3000, but I went card dead when we got three handed and I had to go in with a less than premium hand to capture 3rd place. My disappointment didn't last as long as usual because the finish meant that I would be able to finally get that TV that I had my eyes on. The best part is that it was paid for in full in less than a month by fellow poker players.

On a another note, I am going to focus more of my energy on poker than other activities. I have not had a very good football betting season, hence the lack of free picks. It's one thing for me to lose, but totally another thing when I give out losing picks to others. I would not want any readers to lose their money because of my faulty advice. Unless I find a game that I feel very strongly about, I will no longer be posting plays here.

I have also spent a lot of time and energy promoting Full Tilt Poker and Bodog Poker/Sportsbook. Recently, I made an offer on Recpoker.com to give $25 a month for 3 months to anyone that will open up an account using my link. Between all the flames and someone reporting me to Full Tilt that I was flaming the board, it's just not worth it. I have made less than $50 from my affiliate deal. My time and effort is better used playing poker.

Not sure how many of the Sunday tourneys I will get to play today, but I will definitely try to play the 50K guaranteed on Full Tilt.

Good luck and enjoy your Sunday!
