Well...... Stars has been viscious(sp?) and I think I already mentioned that I added TGC to the mix, starting there with $75...... Here are the running money totals through 11-28-03:
Stars: $23.10
Empire: $201
TGC: $158.26
After getting to .50/1.00 at Stars with $52.95, I was feeling pretty good about the place, but it only took 5 sessions, all of them losers to be forced back to .25/.50... and that was re-starting with $19.95... what a beating I took there.
Just made 2/4 at Empire, and probably won't play too much until the weekend as I'm on-call for my job on Friday night and could have to leave at any time... would rather KNOW I have time to play than not. 1/2 at Empire was relatively easy.
At TGC, I started with $75, made $101.26, dropped to $72.01, then came back the other night to $106.76..... Tonight I got GREAT cards, and playing at a tight table, brought it up to $158.26 in a little over an hour.
Made up my "list" for advancement(dollar amounts are for starting that level):
.25/.50 - $25
.50/1.00 - $50
1/2 - $100
2/4 - $200
3/6 - $450
4/8 - $600 (If I play it at TGC)
5/10 - $750
10/20 - $1500
15/30 - $3000
Anything above 15/30 and I'll need a heart monitor attached......
I also thought about a few twists I might include in some future OIC of my own. They are:
1. I thought about playing this at ALL sites I currently have accounts at (I think it's 5).
2. I'd like to do this just to see if any one site is significantly looser/better than another (I know Party is the concensus, but just for shits and giggles)
3. If I do this, I would like to be able to weigh results accurately, and for this, I have 2 thoughts:
A: I could play the same amount of time at each site, therefore getting a BB/hour number
B: I could play the same number of hands at eash site, therefor getting a BB/hands number
C: Of course, I can't play EXACTLY the same amount of time or the same number of hands at each site, but I think I could get it pretty close for comparison.
OK... enough for this post... If anyone has any thoughts about what I've stated here, I'd love to hear them!
