Niagara Falls
For my 22nd birthday on Monday my girlfriend took me to Niagara Falls so we could spend some time together since Ive been working 3rd shifts! Anyways we arrived around 5 o'clock and went out to dinner. Went to TGIFridays and it was meh lol but she paid since it was my bday so I couldnt complain. We went back to the room and changed to go see the falls. (We had both seen them but the other couple that went has not). We walked around and checked everything out only to get misted by the falls and freeze our asses off haha. We then walked down Cliffton Street (the touristy place for tourists) and we decided to retire back to the room (Got no sleep the night before because I had to pick up my bro at noon from work). I ended up going to bed, taking care of me and my girls needs, thinking I was not gonna even play poker. So I woke up finding out Lebron went off for 51 and further solidifying his MVP status. This was around 8 when I decided I felt awake and clear-minded to go play.
I took a shower and was on my way to play 2/5. Got my chips which amounted to $313 Canadian and sat down at my table. Posted right away and looked down at AQ in which a called a raise of 20. Whiffed the flop and folded to his C-Bet. Folded the next few hands to look down at AJ. I raised and got one caller (he was AZN) He bet the flop and I called. I felt he had air so I raised the turn (after a 3rd heart came) and he tanked and folded after about a minute of deliberation the pot was about $115. I then picked up a few hands and raised only to fold the flop pissing my stack into the low 200s. I won a decent pot off some tool looking guy in a weird ass mohawk and business suit when we both had 10s but my 9 played which put me back around 300. I then went card dead for quite awhile until I caught pocket fives. It held vs the guys overs and I won ~200 there putting my stack back to around 250. My last big hand came when I had pocket nines in which I raised to 25 from the BB. The flop came K32 and I bet 40. The other caller in the hand called me. I bet 75 on the turn when my 3rd 9 came. He called again. Last card came out and put a possible flush on board. He started talking asking how big my flush was saying his was J high(dead give away he didnt have it cuz he would talk about his 'hands' and either fold or call with a weak showing) I bet about 100 so I didnt lose him in the hand and he paid me off with K8. This put my stack at around 630. I called one more hand for 15 and folded the flop. I then left and cashed out for 483.75 for my 233.75 profit in 1.5 hours. (rake tips and my redbull cost ~$30)

My Bankroll Challenge
I have been meaning to make this entry for quite awhile now. Finally I am making it.
Heres the premise. I tilted off/pissed away most of my Fulltilt bankroll so I decided to find a site to sell my play chips to on Pokerstars.
* My Fulltilt account is the secondary account in this challenge
Found a site and sold my million play chips for a solid $4. I played a $2.20 180 turbo sitngo before I cooked up this challenge. After I did not cash I decided to play strictly .25 90 persons to grind my roll up and now my challenge started on the 31st of January.
February was a pretty rough month.. I got staked by my dad in quite a few tournaments and was able to pull together a couple cashes but nothing major. I won a bet for $10 by betting on the cavs -4 vs the pistons. This put my roll right around $20. I started playing $1.75 18 person turbo tournaments. I ended up grinding my roll to around $45. This is when my grandpa called and told me he needed some help setting up his new laptop since his old one broke. 15 minutes after setting it up he shipped me $20 on Pokerstars and I havent looked back since.
I was lucky enough to take a 2nd in a $2 tournament on Fulltilt Poker:
I scored 89.10 for the deep run. I then proceeded to ship the money over to Pokerstars thanks to a buddy from 67suited.com
Turns out February was a pretty decent month for myself. With the 89.10 for my Fulltilt win and -47.07 I lost on Pokerstars I still had a net of 42.03
Things werent easy though.. I did go through quite a few rough patches including reaching super tilt for only the second time in my online career
March has been very good so far: I still am playing 18 person turbos and mix in a 45, 90 or 180 on occasion.
So overall the total bankroll looks like this plus my Fulltilt account winnings of 85.85:
Heres the Pokerstars ROI to date
Pokerstars: 131.63
Fulltilt : 4.55
Total BR : 136.18
