Post 100!: Long Time NO see

Its been about 3 weeks since ive seen you all. I have played no live poker due to the tournament. I played some online at stars. I got my accoutn from that 4.20 to 13.75 and cashed in 3 of my last 4 multis. Last 2 getting real deep but catching gooseeggs late. My bracket is done. I had a great first round 27-5. OK second round getting 7 of 8 elite 8 teams. Only Xavier didnt make it on bullshit and I had UNLV. Then that Thursday killed me lost Southern Illinois and Texas A&m with in 25 minutes of each other. So im done. Im broke and looking for a job. I do have atleast umpiring and pretty sure Ill be doing something that will give atlest 50 additional a week. When I get going I WILL redeposit 50 dollars on Full tilt and play small tournies 1 and 2 dollar multis with some occassional 2 dollars till i get to 80 where i can take some shots. My plan for this will be not to keep much in after i get to like 200. I need money for a car so im going to be taking out quickly. This will make it extremely important to use good bankroll management. I got a live tourney in April for SPOY so I can really use that. Poker Superstars is going slow so I don't think that will be starting for a while. I got one week left in this quarter and I got to finish strong so not much poker until Sunday.

Later

The Madness of March

In the little online i have played these past two weeks have been as cold as the past few months. The good news is im doing alot better in school and March Madness is starting. This is my favorite sporting spectacle of the year. Im doing two pools one for 10 and another for 5. Im really into college basketball, as I do my own projected bracket to help prepare me. The only bad news this year is that Uconn is looking like their going to make the tournament, so now it looks like I'll follow some NIT. Don won a $10 Mtt ofr 750 last weekend and is playing really good. My pro friend Robert Lauria who is a nasty pro just took down a HOSE event for 2500 at FARGO. He is so nasty, I hope to go up to his crib soon and play some live games with home. As for me live, Don and I have come up with Poker Superstars and and Southington Series of Poker. I'll post when I have more information. Im playing a live event tommorrow as I need the money as our High School team has made the playoffs and I need the money to pay, not to menton the SPOY points. You can see all these points and tournaments at our site at www.southingtonpoker.8k.com . Also we are planning to have a 10 dollar tourney at pokerstars for the site in mid april, just holla at me and ill get you the password. Im planning to put $10 on stars and play some .25 tourneys and see what happens. Won't play alot until after the tournament. Im also still looking for a job to fund me so who knows.

Trying to survive in everything,
Matt
