Posted by B1gfoot: Its pay day -$8 for me, can live with that....Next time ill just say NO. Back to normall poker, wich means I have to take away temptation from FT, so cash out and hide short cut...out of site out of mind.
lol Might be the best way to go!
I forgot to mention that during the week I played some regular tourneys and a couple of S&G´s on Party. BIG mistake! Lost about $40 bucks there, playing rush style instead of Poker... mmmmmm....very tricky promotion by FT, that one...

I completed silver on all 7 days of the rush promotion so I won $50. In that time I lost $60 playing rush tables. Bullet to the head... hmmm... a little strong maybe.
at least i managed to qualify for the rush freeroll next week so maybe there's still time to make a weekly profit.
Will I give up on rush poker? Not sure. The annoying thing is that on some days I was making a decent profit. But then I got a few bad beats and kept running into aces. swings and roundabouts and all that.

At least you got trip Q:s on the turn against my pocket 99, which I then though might be good, because it was less likely that you had a Q.

you guys actually met at a rush table? amazing!
Well, I met a guy called awood88 from the UK, and awood88 played the promo, so I figured it might be him.

I just lost two BI:s this morning, one with a straight, and get I rivered by a flush (four harts on the board). And then with AK vs AJ (me on the button and him on the small blind, so I put him on a pretty lose range, otherwise I wouln't have been all in with AKo and only an A on the board.)
Yesterday evening I lost two BI:s also. So I figured I will stay away for a few days.

I assume BI means Buy-Ins? anyway i never bet anything big until my hand is complete, example i have a flush draw or open ended straight draw, i would still just call or check. i always assume that my opponent has a better hand even if i already invested quite a lot on the pot, i still fold. xxIm2good4uxx
