The onslaught continues

Both in my game and for the state of online poker.

Chiptalk tourney Thursday night.

Blinds are 50/100.

I pick up AA in the perfect situation. UTG+1 raises to 300 and I am in Middle position with 1700 chips.

UTG+1 has 1500 chips and had just raised and folded to a reraise so I raise to 800 to get everyone else to fold and hope he takes a stand. He thinks and calls.

Flop K55. He pushes all in for last 600something and I call. He shows 77 and I'm like yay.

Then the river comes a 7 and I go booooooooooooooooooooooooo!

I have 170 chips left in BB and pick up 88, folded to SB who raises and he has QT and guy hits T on turn and I'm out.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
-------------------------------

So now all the sites are dropping like flies.

Party usually has 10k to 15k real money players on a Friday night. According to pokersitescout.com, they only have about 3000 right now while Pokerstars still has about 9k players.

If you signed up with Absolute or Full Tilt before you found PSO or another affiliate, now may be your chance to add rakeback to your existing account.

PSO may be able to get you rakeback on Absolute
Rakefreeze.com may be able to get you rakeback on FullTilt

This will only work if you never created your account through an affiliate link.

I have already written rakefreeze which I found out about on the Rounders podcast.

Hopefully they will switch me over :) That's it for now...may the flop be with you!
