Well, after a long hiatus, I do believe it is time for an update. I've not played a ton of poker over the past month, being massively busy with our page, www.poker-strategy.org . It's amazing how activity for every aspect of the poker industry has picked up as we move closer and closer to the World Series of Poker, 2005.
Leslie on the other hand has had loads of time to play and has made very good use of her time. She plays primarily at Absolute Poker and during the month of March posted a +1650 addition to her bankroll in the 1/2 and 2/4 7cs games there. Not too shabby. ;]
On other fronts, one of my original goals this year was to give away a high amount in rake back to members of our page. Off the top of my head, I believe the figure was $20,000 as the goal. I am happy to report that we've blown past that landmark in the first three months!
January 2005 - March 2005 total rake rebates paid to our players stands at $28,611.12 ...Holy Cow!
Last weekend, I got a chance to meet a couple of our forum members, when Brad (Undream) and Casie along with their two young children dropped by our corner of the world in southern middle Tennessee. Despite having trouble understanding my thick drawl, we had a very good time. Plans are in the works now to drum up some sort of PSORG convention as well. I'm looking forward to it, as our humble poker community takes yet another step in extending relationships past our intial common interests.
Now if I can just find some time to play a little poker so as not to embarrass myself when we all meet up at a casino!
