Challenge Update & Some Other Poker Stuff

Ok , first , sorry for not updating , but my challenge is going fine , in fact im way ahead of schedule , thanks to that nice tourney i played last week.

i dont have the exact figures right this second , but im above $13k since may 1st but below $13.5k , i dont have too many hands saved , or anything too exciting to report , but i have mainly been 3 or 4 tabling the $2/$4 on Full Tilt and have been doing well/running well , there was a 3 day period last week where i played sooooo bad and lost about 2.7k , but then i took a day off and played solid great poker with some phenomenal results, i had a few $800+ days a few times in a row and have been enjoying poker

I also went to the borgata to play in the sunday night tourney , but when i got there i learned that they cancelled the tournament bec of the holiday weekend, so i sat at the 2/5 table and played uber-tight agrgressive and booked a $450 win over a 5 hour period , i didnt have too many interesting hands , except for 3 hands where i had KK then QQ then KK and i raised preflop on each got 3 or 4 callers , and an ace hit the flop and i gave up. I made one super bluff with pocket 10's on an ace high flop, but my table image was so tight that when i led out after the flop i got once caller , the turn was a blank and i check raised and took it down. Interestingly, about an hour into the game Ron Perelman sat down at my table and basically played every flop and usually folded , he never seemed to raise just called alot. Turns out he likes to play Limit and was waiting for a seat in the $80/$160 game , and he left shortly after donking off about $250

-------------------------------------------

heres a nice hand that i played yest , I call it "thanks for letting me get there"



im not sure what he thinks i have or why he even reraised after the turn, at one point i said to myself that he played this like pocket aces or pocket queens, but luckily for me the guy was a donk and paid me off
