January 2012 Review

It ain't too long now before I will be on a flight to Tenerife in the Canary Islands. Its the first time that I will be visiting this region and I'm pretty excited.

It will be nice to get some decent weather as it is 7 or 8 Degrees C in London whereas its between 20C and 23C on the island.

In the centre of the island is the 3rd highest volcano (Teide) in the world which stands at 3,718 metres tall at its summit.

January has been a low volume month due to a few reasons. Firstly I took part in the mass protest against the rakeback changes. I was banned from playing for over a day for this. I then spent time with the missus doing a few day trips while she was off work. After that I got sick so my grind only began really around 12 or 13 days in. Now with the holiday I will miss around 5 days at the end of the month.

The worm looks like this:

I had some fun playing omaha even though I lost a little. I have played a little HU too and it is quite interesting as you try to figure out the villains game.

The final numbers for January are as follows:

80,256 Hands Played
12,709 VPPs

+$1,998 (Cash Game Winnings)
+$150 (Stellar Rewards)
+$1,500 (FPP Cash Bonus)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
+$3,648 (Total Month)


Finally I would just like to give a shout out to the Liverpool FC boys who have made it to the League Cup Final at Wembley. Even though it is the smaller of the Cups contested by the top flight teams it is a big deal to us as we have not won much in recent times, lol. I will try to get tickets to this one even though it won't be easy.
