You’re tired, so you put it off until tomorrow. Oops. You forgot that you have a jam packed schedule and will be out of the house all day. It’s now the third day and having been postponed twice already another day doesn’t seem too bad. From there it gets increasingly easier to put it off. … Read more →

I’m rounding the 700,000 VPP corner and the end is in sight. Well almost. Actually no not really. There’s still a long, uphill battle ahead. I’m on track to make it by the 20th of December assuming maintaining a 10k per day average. Yesterday Puneet and I booked our flights to India leaving on the … Read more →

I’m not going to lie, life is hectic at the moment. I haven’t given up trying to get SNE and I don’t intend to – but it has been a rough start (or re-start rather). I go back and forth between playing a max of 12-15 tables and attempting to play up to 21 tables … Read more →

As some of you may know, though most probably don’t, it was Puneet and My engagement party this past weekend. I will absolutely be writing a post dedicated to that night/weekend when all of our photos come through but suffice to say it was hands down one of the best nights of my life. Not … Read more →

Questionable Hamlet paraphrasing aside, I have been debating back and forth in my mind for some time now whether or not I should try and make SNE this year. It had been established as essentially a sure fire thing until a recent bout of travelling + live tournaments. Due to a one-year-only rule in Stars … Read more →

I’ve thought for a long while now the direction in which I want to take this guide.

I finished off SNE about a week before the end of the year, allowing for a pretty nice break from the tables. Unfortunately pretty much as soon as I finished I came down with the flu and have only just started to overcome it — so most of my break was bed ridden and medicine … Read more →

The poker world (or a small subsection of it pertaining to those who play online at PokerStars) is in arms over speculation that a change in the way rewards will be given at Stars is about to happen. There is a tonne of misinformation and uninformed opinions floating around and I’d like to give my … Read more →

December is upon us. For most December is a month of merryment; you get a nice break from the working grind, Father Christmas comes to visit, perhaps there’s a big new years eve party and a chance to make resolutions (that are almost sure to fail) for the year ahead. Depending on what part of the … Read more →

It’s been exactly a month since my last poker update so now seems like as good a time as any to make a progress update. Overall things have been going well — there was a 2 or so week breakeven period where nothing was working but that’s nothing out of the ordinary. VPP-wise I am … Read more →
