TEAM FULL CONTACT POKER!


So, I get an e-mail from FCP, and it says that if I wear their stuff at the WSOP, I get cash. Okay I say to myself, what's the catch? The catch is I have to wear the stuff they provide for FREE- hat, shirts....AND THEY SEND ME MONEY! Killer and I both inked our deals Thursday, and we meet with Lori (Negreanu...Daniel's wife, yes, I'm name dropping) to finalize the deal. How pumped am I? This deal is now finally available on the FCP website, but WE were contacted, so I feel important...hahaha!

Victory at Pokerkings!

My training includes playing freerolls @ Romby's restaurant on Monday nights. Sure you say, big whoop, you won a freeroll. maybe true, but they are a great place to work on mechanics: watching other players, tracking the pot size, making sure I do a "Chris Ferguson", act the same preflop, flop, etc...don't count your chips before you have to, PLAY AGGRESSIVE! DOMINATE! It's a lot easier to play as chip leader than short stack. Anywho, I'm up a gift certificate, and have a whack of points- I've come in 2nd twice, and 1st once, so I think I might make tournament of champions- maybe. The Port Mansion is picking up Monday Nights now possibly, we'll see next week.

Less than 2 weeks to Event #1!

With less than 2 weeks to go, training is going well. Did a session with Killer, the misses, and baby Jessica, running through scenarios, etc... It went well, and we're doing it again next week. I still have to be more "Selectively aggressive", (Don't leave your kids on the street, as Mike Sexton says...) Using STACKED as a training tool, and I wish it came out in October like was originally planned, it's a big help. Off to read Sklansky now...
