200,000 Page Views + WBCOOP Leader Board
It doesn't seem that long ago that I was passing six figures in views. That took over 2 years to get to but the 2nd ton has only taken around 10 months which means readers have got up.
Thanks to all of you for reading and supporting supernova125..!!
In proper news now I only have 2 tickets left in WBCOOP and the current leader board looks like this:
If you look closely you will not find me on this as I am sitting on 110 Points. I am looking for a deep run in 1 or both to get me a chance at a shot at a top 3 finish which has some nice prizes.
I am not sure if tomorrows final has leader board points too or is only for the cash prizes but that will be fun and conclude a pretty enjoyable series..!!

Is Party Poker Now Rigging Their Lobby?
There some pretty shocking reports coming out about Party Poker and other sites now apparently controlling what tables players have access to based on their winrate. They are basically trying to get regs to play regs and fish to play fish.
I will definitely boycott any site that does this.
There are a few reports on some forums and this clip seems to show it in action:

Pokerstars Bankroll Building Exercise
The way you manage a bankroll can vary vastly from player to player.
Previously my personal method has been to employ a 'float' level according to which stakes that I am playing and then to cash out every time that I hit the 'cash out level'.
The problem with this method is that it doesn't allow you to move up and grow as a poker player.
In the last quarter of 2012 and in 2013 I have been employing a new method. While the new method is not very aggressive it is progressive and I have already played a few sessions at NL200 in the last 2 months whereas I didn't really play higher than NL100 in the whole of last year.
It wasn't long ago that my roll was sitting at around $1,250 and I was going through the worst period in my poker career.
That has all changed now and I am currently sitting on:
My new method is pretty simple. There is no longer any float level and every time I make $1,000 I only cash out $500 and so the account grows and is also padded to cope with any down swings.
When the roll hits $10,000 then I will happily play NL200 more regularly. After that I will just take shots and see where it goes. If I fail the roll will probably stay at around $8-$10k with NL200 as my highest game but if I can take it further then the sky's the limit and I will push as far as I can go.
I am thinking about doing a mini challenge this month so watch out for that one in an upcoming post.

Should I Buy The Saab?
I've been looking at updating my motor for a couple of months now.
I currently drive a Lexus and am looking at buying maybe a Saab 9-3.
The motor will cost around $10,000 second hand and I have seen a few that are around 5yrs old. I will part exchange the Lexus for around $3,000.
Do you know any issues with these cars? Have you had an experience with them. How are they for drive and reliability? Would you buy something else? I like BMW 3-series too.
Similar to the ones I have seen but a bit newer:
So, should I buy the Saab?
