Slow start

Started the month off on the wrong foot. Played some 2/4 6max on Pokerstars and my second hand I got AA. AK9 flop with 2 clubs. River flush and I was down off the bat. Lost $54 Thursday.

Friday night I decided to start PokerFantasy.com. About 80% of the players seem to be from outside of North America. So it seems that their PSP/Ipod promo isn't helping them much (Only available in US/Canada). Only about 150-200 players on at any time I've looked. I got a little heads up action at 1/2. One game of .5/1 and a bunch at .25/.50 on the limit side. NL has a bunch more games.

So I played some .25/.50 NL which has a max $25 buyin. Unfortunately points don't seem to update until 7pm ET (midnight GMT).

So far:
.25/.5: 99 hands
.5/1: 232 hands
1/2: 32 hands
$25 NL: 158 hands
Total table hours: 5h 42m

Total Points: 82

So almost 1/25 of the way there. I wish I could see the breakdown of those points. I guess I need to learn to play NL better so I can clear it faster. I won about $30 in the process so at least that was a positive.

That's about it for now. I'll play a little more tonight. May the flop be with you!
